The Living Room - Beverly Hills

This place was easy to get to, 15$ valet parking. Once inside Peninsula hotel, you will see a bar to the side, the hotel lobby, and directly infront the Tea Room. There was a harpist playing which was delightful. The staff was friendly, in tip of filling up the Tea and Champagne glasses.. the food was amazing and the scones!!! The Scones were amazing. It's a 2 hour service and completely worth the money. We did the Traditional Tea with endless bubbles and that was 160$ per person.

Wow, I have to say, it was quite pricey! I had an inkling that it would be on the expensive side, but I was hoping that the generous portion of food and drinks would make up for it. However, for $125, you only receive one glass of champagne, a choice of one tea (which does come with refills, but unfortunately they don't let you try the other teas they offer), a small serving of strawberries and cream, that tower of five mini sandwiches and a few sweets, and a teeny tiny cake at the end! Oh, and let's not forget about the added tax and the automatic 18% gratuity charge! Considering the amount of money spent, the overall experience left much to be desired. The chairs were not very comfortable, the living room area was uncomfortably warm, and they certainly rushed you through the experience. I had imagined it would be a delightful and memorable British tea afternoon, but sadly, it fell short of my expectations. The sandwiches were not delicious or anything especial and the sweets were dry and meh! The only delicious item was on of the tiny sconces that was really good! That's it! Needless to say, I won't be returning, and I certainly can't recommend it to anyone else!

This was absolutely the most elegant delicious tea service. I highly recommend going to the Peninsula Hotel and experience the elegance and perfection of The Living Room. The service is excellent as the staff treat the guests like royalty. I took my mother and she was in awe of the beauty that surrounded us. It is worth every penny for this experience, an experience to savor. Patricia, the manager, is very thoughtful and so professional--the entire staff members are warm and friendly. The food is absolutely delicious!!!

Excellent food, great service and an awesome location. This place deserves 5 stars. Highly recommended.

The service, the setting, the tea and the people watching...I simply love tea at the Living Room. Always special.
