During nice weather, sit out on the patio that is surrounded by greenery for privacy and dine on broiled Canadian salmon or the blackened Louisiana catfish served with a spicy tomato salsa. While the mood is intimate, children are welcome at the Ivy Inn and menu items for them include penne pasta with butter, three mini sliders or a pizzette.The Ivy Inn offers a global selection of both red and white wines.

We love it here! Drinks and food are always consistent. We had carne asada fries and they were amazing. Tacos also very good. We love the margarita flight to start always. This time I tried the caddilac margarita and it was amazing. Our serve was extremely attentive. She brought us all waters without asking. She had excellent knowledge of the menu and made great recommendations. 10/10
