Nice venue, great food but not the best to meet and chat given the live music (which was also good).

Couple of cheeky cocktails at the bar beautifully made tasted fab. Great vibe good service. Not cheap but worth every penny.

Great stylish restaurant with tasty food, good set meals, friendly and helpful staff. Just variety of dishes could be a bit better as it used to be. However I guess this is due to the high inflation - The Ivy still wants to let people enjoy the meal keeping the same price but need to play with the food options.

Booked yesterday for my daughter’s birthday. The staff were good and attentive. The food however was not. We both ordered fish and chips. The fish batter was raw underneath and fish was a bit pink. Not realising until I had ate half. We pointed this out to the staff who refunded the price of the dishes. I was really disappointed as had previously visited the ivy in Chelsea garden and the fish and chips were the best I had in years.
Please get your chef to get some training from the Chelsea Ivy in order for the fish and chips to be better than it was yesterday the batter was so thick I think they put in too much flour in the batter.

A true London experience in that the food was absolutely nothing to write home about.
Scallops were dry, steak was over cooked (despite asking for medium rare) and therefore spongy and impossible to chew.
The ambiance was great though, beautiful interior decor.

What an absolute disaster of a place . We booked a table for 2 for a birthday the very unfriendly lady on the front desk said yes I have your booking and then managed to sit us on the worst table she could find in between the wall were the waiters leave their till and a couple of really loud people who were talking so loud you couldn’t actually here yourself think. !! The table area was so small I had to sit with my legs to the side as I couldn’t fit them comfortably under the table ! The service was slow , the drinks were not doubles as requested the bar staff just put an extra ice cube thinking that we wouldn’t notice well we did notice you were charging for doubles yet giving singles , the starters were ok but what was frustrating walk in guests were coming in off the street no bookings and when they arrived they were given massive tables for example a woman by herself by a nice corner table another 2 customers got a large table designed for 4 !! This was not nice for us two sitting in this tiny table which reminded me of Paris tables certainly not London . After finishing starters the plates were not cleared for a good 25 minutes even though staff were constantly passing to put new glasses and menus etc on empty tables no one bothered to actually clear our table for our next course. I went to see the host to enquire why they had given us the worst table in the restaurant and could it be they were busy , he said no they are not busy and fid not understand why these sat us there !!! Then a lady tried to make things better by moving us to a normal table designed for 2 people with legs this time and gave us a free drink but to be honest after the first part of the experience being so bad we were already not expecting good things . The main course had been floating around whilst all this was going on and finally arrived and was nothing special or tasty and a bit cold too !! Then again finishing the course the long long wait to get the table cleared 20 mins gone by asking the lady who helped can you help us again , table then cleared, dessert menus thrown at us literally again the lady helped as the staff were way to busy chatting and messing around in the mainly empty restaurant! To be blunt this place was good maybe in the past they ruined my birthday lunch and the staff should be retrained and whoever owns the place maybe needs to invest in some training and etiquette for the staff ! Your IVY Soho is a big joke !

Arrived 10 mins early for 0830 breakfast. Made to wait outside, wasn’t allowed to enter the premises or use the bathrooms. Simple scrambled egg on toast order, eggs were cold and toast was too tough to cut. Pretty poor to get a basic so wrong.

The overall dinner experience was very average. Decor overshadowed the food experience. I prefer the Ivy breakfast experience, food, service and atmosphere was much better for me. The desert looked inviting but it won’t be one I remember. It was just underwhelming because of the excessive hype.

Personale molto cortese e preparato. Per una cena Londinese di qualità vi consiglio di fare tappa in questo locale pulito, elegante e tranquillo.

An absolutely stunning Art Deco style interior. The food and service though were massively disappointing. I asked for a smoothie twice and never received it. The steak was fatty unfortunately.

Went there yesterday with my colleagues. It was as amazing as always. Absolutely delicious food, spectacular drinks, and our waiter was probably the most professional and understanding waiter I have ever met. The wine list is extensive with something for everyone’s palate. I could go on and on about how amazing the experience was, all the way from welcoming to farewell.
100% will go back and recommend to all my friends

Came here for my birthday dinner february 22nd, food and drinks were really good but our server was amazing!
After being super late for our reservation we were still given our table which I was super grateful for, our server was lovely and a really great host and he created a lovely atmosphere, Will definitely be back next time I visit London!

The Ivy restaurants are always lovely when you visit somewhere and you know what you are going to get when you go.
The place was really busy as you'd expect on a Saturday evening in the middle of Soho, but still, we sat quickly and served with expediency. I'd recommend booking for sure as it was busy, to say the least!
The waiter was professional and allowed us enough time to decide what we wanted, but made sure to deal with each of our seven person group efficiently.
When the food arrived, I had the steak, and it was fantastic tender and cooked just right for me (med/rare). One thing I will say now was I was a little disappointed that I had to pay so much to just get a steak, costing I want to say £29ish. When I say a steak, I mean just trh streak. The chips were a side you had to order separately as well as ant suace you wanted. But this honestly is my only minor complaint, and I can appreciate it was still really good steak and chips!
They gave us a free dessert for our friend as it was her hen do which they didn't have to do as it was so busy, bur the extra thought was lovely to see and the waiter went that extra mile with that to make her feel extra special.
The desserts were also really nice and everyone really enjoyed the process as well as the eating of the meal!
Definitely would recommend!

Don't waste your time and money here. We had a big party dinner cuz we think this is the best (says who? worst actually) British restaurant in London. The waiters didn't introduce anything when serving the dishes, just served them quickly like a robot. When we asked about the dishes, the blonde waitress turned away, sighed impatiently and rolled her eyes after explaining with any reason. So Asians, please don't come here to waste money. We're not welcome here. The food is really terrible really 难吃. The mushroom pasta is the worst I've ever had. The sauce is so weird , sticky and disgusting 黏的程度真的像大鼻涕. I have tried so many Italian restaurants so that I have to say that I’m pretty sure it's not a normal mushroom pasta…. We confirmed with the blonde waitress no cheese and bacon add on when ordering the burger, but there was bacon on the bill in the end. We didn't complain as we just wanted to leave the restaurant quickly and didn't want to waste more time. Finally, when getting our coats, the receptionist gave our coats to other customers even we haven’t give them the ticket... With this kind of service, I don't think they deserve the service charge, even though we paid it as usual. Hope they train their staff on how to serve customers properly. This is the worst restaurant I've been to in London after all these years. I definitely won't go again.

Had a lovely breakfast at The Ivy Soho Brasserie. The food was well-prepared and delicious—my omelet was fluffy and full of flavor, paired perfectly with fresh ingredients. The service was excellent, with attentive and friendly staff making sure everything was just right. The atmosphere was elegant and stylish, creating a relaxed yet upscale vibe. A great way to start the day!
