The Ivy Victoria is a great restaurant for many occasions, I often take customers there, as suitable for casual business meetings whilst dining. We had outstanding service and the food overall was good, as always. Although the fillet steak was slightly fatty and chewer than a fillet should typically be. I would have given 5 stars otherwise.
