This is my third time dinning at the Ivy. We were blown away by the great service provided by kaytrana. She made my friends 25th birthday so special. Thanks so much. Great food, on average £62pp which included two small sharing plates each, a cocktail, and a main. Would go again.

Absolutely incredible dining experience at Azteca. Welcomed by the super friendly staff the minute we arrived, and seated in a timely and efficient fashion. The food was outstanding, and probably the best Mexican-Japanese fusion cuisine I have ever tasted! Particular recommendations for the Octopus cervice and the spicy margaritas. We cannot wait to go back and taste some more of their ridiculously tasty menu. 5 stars all day long!!
