The Ivy Description

The Ivy is one of London’s most in-demand restaurants, a uniquely British institution known throughout the world. An acclaimed refurbishment in 1990, with oak panelling, stained glass and site-specific commissions from leading contemporary artists, recast it as the grand restaurant of its early-20th century heyday. As then, it is a favourite with the pre- and post-theatre crowd, as well as attracting a devoted clientele from the arts and media and beyond. They come for its unmatchable service, the atmosphere of intimacy and privacy fostered by its Director, Fernando Peire, and for its large and unique brasserie-style menu. This offers dishes from around the world such as sashimi and Thai-baked sea bass but has a particular British flavour, with favourites such as Dover sole, roasts and the famous shepherd’s pie, simply but beautifully cooked from the best ingredients....read more

The following customer reviews are not endorsed by Fluid London and are simply those of users who wish to publish their independent experiences of The Ivy.

“I went to the Ivy for my birthday and found the place very disappointing. As noted below, yes the fries do seem to come out of a frozen packet. The Bang Bang Chicken had no bang at all, just small pieces of dull chicken covered in a peanut butter sauce! The ravioli was just terrible. When ordering I asked the waiter for some fries, he corrected me that they were called chips! Then when he brought them to the table he said, here are the Fries! I am not sure if he was making fun of me! Overall very disappointing, makes you wonder why the rich and famous bother to go, unless of course when they arrive it changes! It also seemed the waiter was doing us a favour in serving us, very poor and unattentive and the place was only half full!”

“The Ivy is my favourite London restaurant. I always find the staff are welcoming and the service is efficient, however it is the food that makes the whole experience so special. Definitely one of London's top restaurants.”
