    Ivy Kensington is not a patch on Ivy Birmingham. There was no real customer service, we felt ignored. Really put me off ever going there again. I will stick to Ivy Birmingham only in future. It's a shame service standards are not consistent across all the brand.

    La ragazza alla porta é stata molto fredda. Al tavolo il servizio é stato lento e sono sempre venuti soli quando chiamati . La qualità del cibo é buona.

    Nice setting. Good service. Food was just ok for the price. Had the prawn cocktail and lobster pasta and taste could have been better.

    We were in 5 of which two were 2 boys - 4 year old and 7 year old. In addition we had an 18 month older. The young boys were not well behaved! However the staff were amazing. They accommodated us in an exceptional way and didn’t make us feel at all uncomfortable. Thank you.
