The Ivy review by christopher
I have been fortunate enough to have enjoyed many fine times at this popular eatery! I have had superb visits and others that were simply bistro average but with exceptional ambiance & atmosphere every time. All have been very enjoyable with good or better service and good food at realistic prices for such a desirable venue. The wine selection is wonderful with affordable prices. I have only felt a need to comment online because I have just read a few of the previous comments from what seem to be disappointed tourists or celeb spotters. This fine restaurant does not promote itself as a “tourist attraction” in its own right, sure the rich & famous do regularly eat here but that is because they like it! Sure, the celebs might get “better” attention, but that is because this is the real world and that happens! If you wish to eat in a great place with exciting atmosphere at realistic prices then this could be the restaurant for you! If however you are expecting to become a celeb’ or “A” list member simply by a visit .. Do not waste your time. This is a fine restaurant with good service and good reasonably priced food (better than average wines at very affordable prices). BOOK a table and go with an open mind and you will have a great time. If you seek entertainment, go to tussauds if you seek celebs’ go see a play! Good food & wine in central London – here is the place!
(I am going again on 14th April for “lunch” so will also let you know how mid-week lunch is soon after, but expect it to be equally as good – watch this space)
