I can’t tell you how AWFUL our seating was. Service - delightful, food - lovely. Atmosphere - I should have been at Dennys! The fact that you put ANY customers in that dungeon / overflow room is appalling. You advertise the lovely pictures of the Ivy - which it is - but our experience in your CLOSET - was awful. I guess what makes it worse - when I complained when I left and the manager at the desks says “really, the room wasn’t nice?” Then she goes on to tell me I should have known…EXCUSE ME this was my first - and potentially last - visit. I can hardly even understand her words. EVERYONE.OF.YOU - knows the difference. Had she been gracious and apologized, I may feel different - but for well over $400 for a dinner of 4, I should not have sat in your closet. Shame on you and shame on the reception and stupidity I got from the manager at the counter. This isn’t what I wanted for my birthday dinner. The big question - who will I hear from and what’s their story?

Always a great experience and wonderful food a Ivy! Dick, the owner, always walks around and talks to guests, as well as cleans tables and other tasks to help his staff! It was quite noisy on the night we went due to a holiday party going on upstairs, which is to be expected this time of year. We love Ivy and dine there often!

We went here for a holiday lunch and it was the perfect place. The restaurant had festive decorations and every table had a small pre-lite crystal tree. Our food was delicious. We shared the Black Pepper Shrimp and then each had the Chicken Chopped Salad. Our server was great, giving us her attention when needed, but also giving us time to enjoy our food and to sit and talk for a while.

Tasteful decorations for each table. Waiter was attentive, but not pushy. The menus had built in lights so you didn’t have to strain to see it. Food was excellent, including the bread pudding dessert. The owner/manager? Stopped at each table to check on things. Overall, it was a very nice eating experience.
