Lobby Lounge

Tea time at Grand America is such a fun experience and is worth trying. The food is great, the tea is fantastic, and whatever the whipped dessert they give you to start is, I dream about it. I've gone for Mothers Day a couple times, and a few other random occasions. My only complaint is it they don't seem to change the food. Ive been probably 4-5 times and it ends up being the same. Some different seasonal changes would be fun to mix things up!

Afternoon Tea - 5 stars for environment, with the plush setting and harp music. But the food was disappointing and/or skimpy, particularly for the price. Sandwiches were "ok" - none of us in the party loved any of them. The strawberry with cream was a nice. Lemon curd & clotted cream were great - but only one very small scone each. Other than the macaron and a fresh fruit gum drop type thing, the cookies / desserts were bland and dry. The tea didn't stay very hot, and my companions who ordered hot chocolate said it was lukewarm and not all that flavorful. So, overall, a disappointment compared to other afternoon teas I've been to. Wish there were more options for Afternoon Tea in Salt Lake.

Delicious plant based menu. Smaller portions of food and kind of pricey, but super worth it for the flavor, quality, and atmosphere. Pianist on most nights and jazz trio Fridays and Saturdays starting at 7pm. Amazing live music!!! Every day from noon to 3:30 they have tea time, it’s very boujee and delicious. Every participant gets their choice of tea from the menu, chantillies, scones, and then a big tier of yummy finger foods. A harpist usually plays and it’s gorgeous! You are also able to order champagne or a plate of imported cheeses, yum. They also have vegan and gluten free options during tea. My favorite dish during dinner is the cauliflower wings, oh my gooooooodddd they’re so good. The calamari is also great, and they have the best impossible chicken and beef I’ve ever had.

Delicious drinks, but the most expensive I’ve ever had in SLC. Also, you have to order food to get drinks (because it’s Utah). So we were made to order chips for $3 before we could get cocktails. I believe my mule was $19 pre tip.
