    It was my granddaughters birthday so a family celebration. We had a lovely time perfect for the occasion. Lots of lovely quirky things to see and experience. Well worth a visit.

    Booked a private dining experience for 10 people for a 40th birthday celebration. Venue is stunning and decor and ambiance is wonderful. The food was absolutely outstanding and the value for money on the Premium Experience Menu is exceptional. Every dish was incredibly delicious. Unfortunately the service was the opposite! We were seated right at the entrance of the venue, not private at all. The door kept being opened by other guests and the draft from outside made the area very cold. In the 3 hours that we dined, we were only offered a drinks order twice and the wait for the drinks to be served was up to three quarters of an hour. Water was eventually provided for the table but not topped up throughout the meal. None of the dishes presented to the table were explained with regards to how they should be shared between the 10 guests and no explanation of the food except for what was on the plate. As the meal was organised as a birthday celebration and was a set menu, I paid for the food before the meal was served to make it easier for everyone to pay for drinks. I was charged a £75 service charge which was not offered as optional. I questioned the charge and was just told yes, it’s £75. Had I waited and paid at the end of the meal I would have requested that this charge be removed as the level of service did not warrant the payment. Overall, because of the amazing food I would recommend Ivy Asia and I would eat there again however the service level was below expectation for such a beautiful venue.

    Chose The Ivy Asia for our Wedding Anniversary lunch while shopping in Cardiff. The restaurant looks amazing and the food did not disappoint. We had the Premium tasting menu and enjoy every mouthful. Heini was our server and was very attentive. Thanks also for the Happy Anniversary Mochi and chocolate.

    Our meal at the Ivy Asia on the 24th January was a mixed experience. Our server Rhys was great- helpful and friendly, however the food was not so great. We were both planning to have the set lunch but the vegetarian main option was just some noodles and not appealing so my vegetarian companion had to opt for the much more expensive a la carte menu. I ordered the salt and pepper beef from the set lunch menu which had a £4.50 supplement and it was tough and dry so disappointing all round. Also, the bar service was extremely slow and it took a long time for our drinks to arrive, I had to chase them up twice.
