We ordered the truffle burger and truffle milanesa. The burger came with a sauce that was not good. The milanesa came with a delicious sauce. I would not order the burger again.

This restaurant is really beautiful and was decked out for Christmas. The food was delicious but the burger was delivered lukewarm. Unfortunately, our enjoyment of the meal was spoilt a little due to our table being in a very cold position, the breeze from the door came through the curtain. It’s best not to sit in table by the curtain on colder days. We had booked a couple of weeks in advance so would have hoped for better and it has put me off this one a bit on our first visit. I’ve been to other Ivy restaurants which have been great.

We booked a table for dinner and kindly requested a nice table. The lady greeted us with a lovely smile and gave us a nice table which we appreciated. We did really enjoy our time and the staff was so welcoming and friendly. The food was amazing.

This is a very well presented and staffed restaurant. Not overcrowded with too many tables, it offers space that prevents you from feeling like you are sitting on top of other diners. S well pleasant decor with an inviting bare area. The staff were attentive and efficient throughout my visit. The food was at the standard ss to be expected from this establishment. A service charge was included in the bill but the overall experience I believe warranted it.

We had a great dinner here the first night we were visiting London. The restaurant was bustling and had a energetic vibe. The menu had traditional dishes and a nice selection of vegetarian options. Butternut squash soup, lentil cake, and shepard's pie were all delicious. Excellent drinks as well. We will definitely be back.
