"The Whitby has a bunch of random mismatched objects in their massive space that look like they were collected from various estate sales. Afternoon tea starts at $75 and it's one of those services that works best when you want to dress up a little, sit in front of a full set of gold-trimmed dishware, and have a crisp linen napkin placed on your lap. The food is mostly fine, although the lemony crème fraîche in the smoked salmon sandwich is a nice detail. (We also like that they use loose-leaf tea.) It gets crowded, so make a reservation." - carina finn koeppicus, kenny yang, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick
