   Absolutely gorgeous environment in the restaurant, great design, feels comfortable and not too close with other customers. Staff gave us plenty of time to decide does not feel pressured at all. Staff is very professional and friendly. Scallops in the starters are definitely recommended. Flavourful scallops, fresh and great texture, delicious Spanish with cheese on the side. The most stunning part is the foam which added texture. Steak is not particularly stood out, a bit unevenly cooked but it’s still okay. Dessert is chocolate bombe. I would definitely come back and have this. It’s got different texture, and the sweetness form chocolate, caramel and ice cream. The cocktails and drinks are also great. Definitely worth the price and will come back again.

   My first time trying Ivy Bristol. I was not impressed by service much. It was a wednesday afternoon but busy and the servers were very slow. I accidentally choked on a bit of food and had a coughing fit while my friend asked the lady to bring some water. She went and stood in the corner and took photos for another family while i coughed and coughed. Didn’t get the water till a good 5-6 mins later. Horrible. Food wise the starters were good, chicken chimichuri was too heavy on tomatoes, my friend liked her steak. It was a good value for money as 2 courses were around 21£ pp. i ordered a hot lychee matcha latte thinking it would be gently flavoured but it tasted like a warm lychee juice with green dye in it. The place itself is beautifully decorated.

   Impressively presented menu offered by this beautiful restaurant. I loved the high, gold-leaf ceiling supported by a central column and skirted with tropical engineer-diagram images, which to me were a tip of the hat to Bristol's many high tech contributions. I wish I had time to try the whole menu. My meal, an eggplant tajine, was delicious. Paired with an outstanding drinks offering, The Ivy will be a great place for dinner with friends or someone special. Put The Ivy on your Bristol dining plans.

   Lovely tea for two experience. Delicious sandwiches, lovely cakes. Beautifully presented; flowers and dry ice at the beginning. Beautiful decor. Would have preferred more soothing/classsical music in the background. ( constructive criticism; scones we're a little dry & creme brulee eould have been nicer without the fruit inside, plus a harder shell on top.) Overall, still a top notch experience.

   I enjoyed a wedding reception in the private dining room at the Ivy in Bristol. The staff were wonderfully warm and attentive, in particular Elsa, who looked after the entire wedding party all evening. The food was exceptional - In particular, I had blackened cod, which was cooked perfectly.

   What an amazing experience!! Since we walked in we felt super welcome and the vibes were immaculate. Everyone working there seemed to be enjoying it and were super attentive at all times (taking our order, clearing our table, topping up our wine…). We wish we knew the name of the guy that served us because he was amazing! We had some starters, mains and desserts and we enjoyed everything but would especially recommend the prawn curry and the white chocolate cheesecake! Definitely a 5/5, will be back :)

   I had an amazing experience trying the afternoon tea for the first time. The restaurant is beautiful, comfortable and inspiring. The staff is nice and cordial. The food was delicious. It costs £30 per person and you check all that is included in the menu at their website. Everything was perfect.
