    Waited 30 minutes for drinks Food ok, cold pea puree on fish cakes, ribeye slightly over cooked, service non existent. For the price you have to get the basics correct

    Very slow service. Drinks were very good. Had to wait for 15 minutes for reserved table. No one offered to take our coats. Service charge felt excessive for the poor service. Had to ask for water twice and eventually got it after 30 minutes of being seated. I would go back for the drinks only, food was average, but disappointed by the service.

    The service was exceptional, thank you Antoine, but the large piece of shell in my daughters (not cheap) Lobster linguine really put a dampener on her experience, especially as it caused pain in her mouth due to not expecting it.
    The Ivy Temple RowResponded on 2 December 2024
    Good afternoon Justin, Thank you for sharing your feedback and for your kind words about our service, especially Antoine—we’ll be sure to let him know he made a positive impression! We’re truly sorry to hear about the issue with your daughter’s Lobster Linguine. While we strive for perfection in every dish, it’s clear we fell short in this instance, and we sincerely apologise for the discomfort this caused her. Please rest assured that we’ve shared your feedback with our kitchen team to ensure extra care is taken to prevent this from happening again. We do hope that you will be back to visit us again soon for a much better experience. Many thanks, The Ivy Temple Row

    Poor show at the Birmingham restaurant. As I sat down to order a drink before our table, the young lady on the front desk aggressively asked me if I had a booking. I replied yes & gave her my name and reservation time. She told me to get out of my seat and make my way back to the desk. I asked her if she was serious and she told me it was protocol and I had to immediately move. I walked the 3 metres, repeated my name and time and was then allowed to go back to my seat where I’d ordered my drink. If it hadn’t of been my mother’s birthday meal I would have left there and then. Ben ( management) kindly gave me my drink on the house but I won’t be returning anytime soon. It doesn’t take much for a warm welcome and given the young lady wasn’t on the desk as I walked in I feel I was embarrassed for no reason whatsoever. One birthday meal ruined
    The Ivy Temple RowResponded on 26 November 2024
    Good afternoon, Emma. Thank you for taking the time to leave us this review following your visit on Friday. Once again, we are very sorry for how your visit started, as Ben mentioned on the day the member of staff was spoken too regarding the misunderstanding. We do hope that your mother enjoyed their birthday lunch and hope that you will return to us for a much better visit. Many thanks, The Ivy Temple Row
