Price: Very Expensive
• Modern European • Covent Garden
Booked 161 times today
The Ivy restaurant has been a firm fixture on London’s dining and social scene since 1917. The restaurant and private room upstairs are the epitome of real glamour. A shimmering central dining bar in the restaurant draws admiring attention, and the signature harlequin stained-glass windows, oak panelling and striking contemporary art collection ensure the longevity of this very British of dining institutions. Executive Chef Gary Lee creates balanced seasonal menus, featuring Ivy classics, but accounting for today’s tastes, incorporating more Asian dishes, salads and vegetables, and the advent of a “sea and shells” section. Director Fernando Peire leads a strong and experienced team to deliver the unfaltering service for which The Ivy has become well known over the years. The Ivy welcomes customers without reservations at the central dining bar, where the A La Carte and Set menus are both served.

    The drinks menu were impressed, with a great range of options to complement the food. But what truly made the experience memorable was the first-class service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made our visit even more enjoyable.

    Food is always solid. Service started well and really tailed off. We had to ask several times for drinks and for our food to come to the table.

    The whole crew was amazing, from the start until the very end! Each dish we were served was with full of fresh flavours! The drinks were cold and yummy! Sebastian spend his time to help us to choose the dishes, he was honest and really helpful, and charming. Even tho it got busy, no one felt like it was any stress among the team. Everyone was very welcoming. We did also end up having the matcha ice cream and my husband was surprised to say “I loved it” …. So matcha can be for everyone! Thank you again, we will be back.

    I've been to a Hawksmoor restaurant before but never Seven Dials. The restaurant was amazing. The atmosphere and look was beautiful, the staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful. My partner has a dietary requirement, and they did everything they could to adjust her meal and make her comfortable. The food was outstanding. We absolutely loved our experience and would 100% revisit. To top it off, the location is fantastic if you're visiting for a theatre trip as we were. Thank you so much!
