    Our experience at The Ivy Clifton Brasserie was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the elegant and beautifully designed interior, with its stylish décor and charming atmosphere. The attention to detail in both the furnishings and the artwork really added to the overall experience. The food was delicious, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. The menu offers a great selection, and everything we tried was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding—the staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Another highlight was the spotlessly clean and wonderfully fresh-smelling restrooms, which only added to the overall sense of quality and attention to detail. It was a truly enjoyable dining experience, and we highly recommend The Ivy Clifton Brasserie for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a lovely ambiance. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    I recently had lunch at at The Ivy, and overall, it was a fantastic experience. The food was truly outstanding—top-notch in every way, with flavors and presentation that were absolutely spot-on. The restaurant itself is beautiful, clean, and exudes a refined atmosphere. However, I’m giving four stars because the service could have been better. We often had to look around and wave to get the staff’s attention for things we needed, as they weren’t proactively checking on us. At a restaurant of this caliber, I would expect much more attentiveness from the staff to match the exceptional food and ambiance. That said, I would still highly recommend The Ivy for the quality of the cuisine alone. If the service improves, it could easily be a five-star experience.

    It had been a while since my last visit, so I was excited to return—and I’d forgotten just how stunning the interior is! The opulent decor, with its rich botanical theme, creates such a relaxing and elegant atmosphere. We were seated at a lovely window table with a great view of the bar. To start, we shared the buffalo mozzarella with pesto and a refreshing crab and avocado salad, alongside a warm selection of bread—always a nice touch! For mains, I chose the fillet steak (medium rare), while Sian went for the chicken supreme. Unfortunately, my steak arrived well-done, so it had to be sent back. The replacement took about 30 minutes, which meant Sian had to eat her meal alone, disrupting the flow of our dinner. When the steak finally arrived, it was really good, but the delay was disappointing. To end on a sweet note, we shared the chocolate bomb dessert—rich, indulgent, and a perfect way to wrap up the evening. Aside from the steak mishap, it was a lovely night with good food and beautiful surroundings!
