   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

   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

   The experience was average, the food was average, the service was average, The venue had nice decor but that was really the only positive thing I was able to say about the ivy.

   Normally a great experience, however four of the six main meals were poor. The steaks were tough and with very little flavour, and the one fish meal was quite dry! This is very unusual as this is a regular for us.

   From the moment we walked through the door we were look after. The service continued to be spot on throughout the evening. The food was great, the wine was great, what more could you ask for!

   Not as good as previous visit. Price increases are noticeable, as is the deterioration in the kitchen’s technical skill. I won’t hide my disappointment.
   

   The Ivy Temple RowResponded on November 15, 2024

   Hello Dominic, Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We deeply regret to hear that your recent experience did not meet your expectations especially as you have dinned with us many times over the years. While price adjustments have been necessary due to rising costs, we strive to ensure they are matched by value and quality. We shall be sure to look in to the meals that you had and passed along your comments to our Head Chef to look in to further. Your disappointment is certainly not the lasting impression we aim to leave, and we hope to welcome you back in the future for a better experience. Many thanks, The Ivy Temple Row
