   First time in The Ivy. In Cardiff to see family so thought we'd book in for some dinner. Been waiting to book into Nottingham, definitely will after this. For those that love Bistro Pierre you'll feel right at home, service and prices comparable. Great food, good service, interesting cocktails, not your usuals, but this just makes you explore a little.

   Went for afternoon tea, It was fine..... It looked very impressive.sandwiches were nice. Scones weren't fresh. I wasn't blown away by any of the deserts. The server was very friendly and welcoming but a bit weird that we had to find him to give us plates... After serving us the afternoon tea set.... Just expected more

   Food was absolutely delicious and the service was exceptional, Solomon our waiter went above and beyond to make my birthday meal special. We visited as a family of 5 on the 26th of July, we all had a variety of different meals which were brought out quickly and efficiently, he was very attentive and he couldn't of been more welcoming, he even gave me a birthday desert with my very own candle. His service was excellent and he really made every effort to make the day memorable. Thank you Solomon and the staff at the ivy for making my day so wonderful. Would highly recommend.

   The venue is beautifully decorated with a stunning atmosphere — definitely a lovely place to sit and relax. The food was alright, nothing exceptional but enjoyable enough. Service, however, was very slow. It felt like there was only one server handling the entire place, which made the experience a bit frustrating. Staff were doing their best, but the venue really needs more hands on deck during busy periods.

   Special & “an Experience” - there is no other way to describe it except to say good value too. The decor is amazing and the service formal but in a wonderful way. It’s not somewhere to dash in and dash out. Rather it’s somewhere to relax and soak up the experience. Arguably, other places can sell better perhaps but none will rival will rival the range of menu options or the experience. The central bar island is a work of art and the venue loaded with wonderfully tended plants and interesting art. Where else can you have Champagne for breakfast?

   Had an incredible experience here, would definitely recommend! The atmosphere was very pleasant and not loud, I really enjoyed the interior stylings. It was a place in which I felt at ease. The food was delicious, as were the drinks. It excelled in terms of visual appeal and taste. I would 100% recommend the linguine, it was cooked perfectly and had the perfect amount of bite. The staff were very friendly and welcoming! Mimi was incredibly kind throughout, and I enjoyed my time. I would come again if I was in the area.

   Incredible incredible incredible. The food was amazing, the decor was beautiful, and the service was great. I don’t have a single bad thing to say, everything we ordered was as good as expected if not better. The waiters were very friendly and service was quick and efficient.

   Lovely place! Friendly, efficient staff, nice vibe, lovely decor, good music and fabulous food. They do some cool cocktails. Swanky loos too- you get your own wash basin and dryer in each cubicle. Not too expensive either! Win win!

   Upon your arrival you announce yourself at the check in desk, and then you are escorted to your table, which I think is a nice touch of elegance. The ambiance of the decor and music played in the background make it a lovely relaxed environment without being too pretentious. We were sat upstairs and it felt a very intimate dining experience. The waiting staff were exceptional and the food was fantastic. This was my 1st experience here and I was not disappointed.

   Visited this place recently with my Family of 5. Really impressed with the welcome and surroundings which looks absolutely amazing. The food was lovely although limited choice for what my children would usually eat. The portions aren’t the biggest and most mains don’t even come with anything other than a garnish, so you have to order additional sides to accompany your mains. 2 adults and 3 children had starters each and mains and total was £189.00 I’d recommend this place for a special occasion but as a regular place to visit when we visit the city again it’s not for us.
