    This was the most pleasant experience we’ve had at Ivy. It was super early because we’d come from a show so the noise level was not an issue. Wait staff was amazing. Everyone loved their food. All 7 of us. And desserts were great! Going at 4:30 is the way to go I guess!

    Sat by the window at sunset - beautiful view! Good food Good service. But for me it’s too pricey… the Ivy Gimlet at $36 a drink! I would only come back for a special occasion!

    Took forever to get wine, had to get up to get an extra bowl as we couldn’t find a server, check came without a pen. I know, little things but overall it just set the tone.
