My friend and I had a table booked for a late lunch at 15.00. I turned up at around 14.30, and it was no trouble at all that I was so early. We both went for the fixed price menu at £19 for two courses, and had the salmon rillette and chicken satay to start, followed by the haddock fishcake and shepherd's pie. My friend had a side of green beans as well. The food was all delicious, as usual at The Ivy, and the service was efficient and friendly - although our young waitress was asking us about the food before we'd had a chance to eat anything. The bill, with two glasses of House Champagne and a large glass of Sauvignon Blanc came to roughly £50 each including service.

My husband and I are from Houston, Texas where food and service are second to none; therefore, our standards are quite high! That being said, we were truly impressed by the service and food of this exceptional restaurant in Christmas Day!
