    This was our first time there. It is is very beautiful restaurants. We were greeted with a warm welcome and were seated promptly. The tables are set so as not to make you feel crowded. We ordered the almond crusted bread as our starter. It was nicely prepared and well presented. We each ordered a side Ceasar salad. Unfortunately, there was not much to it and could have easily been skipped. In fact, my guest sent hers back as it was very pedestrian. I ordered the lobster crusted filet 'special' and my guest ordered the Diablo pasta! Both were served hot, were very tasty and elegantly presented. We shared the strawberry mousse cake for dessert. It was very decadent! We did not order alcohol, and we got the sense that we were being 'rushed'. We were not offered coffee with dessert. From the time we sat down until the time we left, it was about 70 minutes. A bit rushed. Obviously, they wanted to turn our table 4 or 5 time for the evening. I would recommend dining at IVY, though be prepared to underwhelmed. For a 'romantic' Valentine's dinner it wasn't very 'romantic'. The 'coolest' thing was the light-up menus!

    Food was wonderful and just the right amount of “check ins” from the servers. Atmosphere is comfy. Nearby parking garage (behind restaurant).

    This is a regular spot for me but the first visit for my partner. Good food with wonderful service. Staff was very attentive. Dishes never stayed around and glasses were never empty. The food was well cooked. Partner loved the parmesan crusted salmon. The bread pudding was phenomenal. We even brought some home. This is a great place for special events or guests.
