Very slow service, had to remind waiter of our drinks order 20 mins after ordering and still had to wait another 10 mins. Dirty table cloth, food ok, not worthy of its price tag. Very disappointed with my visit, I expected it to be of a similar standard to The Ivy in Glasgow, however it certainly wasn't.

Another city another Ivy!
As we were on holiday in Edinburgh it seemed like a good idea and we weren't disappointed, great service,great food, nice decor and atmosphere. I really like their duck salad so had to have it and I fancied their fish and chips this day, all tasty and good. My wife had duck curry followed by a Chocolate Bomb and really enjoyed that also. Great views across St Andrews Square from the first floor diner particularly at sunset. Recommended!

What can I say?! The Ivy was a fantastic experience! We inadvertently ended up in the Ivy for both breakfast and dinner in the same day (don’t ask - miscommunication with people we were meeting) but honestly I wasn’t mad about it!
The service was second to none - they were very attentive and super pleasant. Food was beautiful. I even got extra toast with my omelette!
For dinner we were a big table of 12 and nothing came out incorrectly- it was all perfect.
Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

Visited recently as a large group for a birthday dinner and had one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The hardest bit was deciding what to order as everything sounded delicious. Every course and every drink was perfect and the service was outstanding. We were looked after all night by a young lady named Abigail and she was exceptional, really added to the experience. Highly recommend a visit.

I dined here with my family and non of us were overly impressed. Our drinks took 20 minutes to arrive and the food was mediocre.

Worth booking in advance which explains why it’s such a lovely place to enjoy a cocktail, coffee, brunch or a dinner. Fab staff and a great location

Value cannot be beaten for such top quality meal. Unfortunately too full for dessert!

All in all, very nice.
Food was good but not exquisite. Dessert was a bit too sweet and heavy for my taste.
Excellent wine selection with a good price range.
Service was excellent. Very friendly and kind staff who helped us to our desired table.
Only real remark would be that some of the seats and tables seemed to be really worn out and had seen better days. These where a bit uncomfortable which is why we requested a different table, which was no problem at all.

A very uneven experience. To begin with the positives, the place and the atmosphere are stunning. Truly one of the most beautiful restaurants I have been from an aesthetics point of view. The service was very good too. The staff were all extremely polite and formal, and they apologised for a small delay with one of our starter dishes, even going to the extent of removing it from our bill as a token of good will and apology for keeping us waiting slightly longer. That said, the food needs significant improvements, as it was underwhelming. The portions are very small, which for the price charged is not acceptable. The arancini were very tasty, but only a handful and very small in size. The mozzarella was good but forgettable and needs a lot of salt to be edible. My sirloin steak was adequately good in terms of seasoning (although it arguably needed a bit more salt), but the cooking was off. I ordered it medium, but it was almost well done. I did show the staff, who agreed that it was overcooked and offered to give me a new steak, while the chef offered his apologies, but I didn't want to put them in further stress, while I am also easy with food in general, so I ate it. The carrot and suede mash was tasty but too small for a 7-quid side dish. The flat iron chicken felt reheated, blunt, at times stale and hard to chew, while generally it was also underwhelming despite the interesting mushroom sauce which gave it a nice zing. We were hoping for a dessert, but the chocolate options were limited and in fact one choco dessert was substituted by a white chocolate version of the same dish. Most desserts had salted caramel, which is a good option, but overall more choco options were needed, as arguably most people opt for chocolate. Overall, an uneven experience. If the food and pricing improve, this could be a tremendous eating experience, but there is work to be done here. Still, I would like to give it another shot.

Limited vegetarian options and not clearly labelled on the menu. I expected better at these prices. Vegetarian shouldn't have to be "on request", it should just be there without having to ask specially for it.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Our server Abigail was fantastic and couldn’t have done more for us. We will definitely be back.

Extremely overpriced, tiny portions and not worth the visit.
The lobster linguine was 37.5 pounds and was supposed to be a main but it was the size of a starter. Extremely disappointing. I also ordered a side of broccoli which didn’t come until I was finished eating my main.
Nice place, but not worth the price.
