The Ivy - London Eating, 24 November 2001; Getting in is most of the pleasure derived from eating at the most overrated celebrity dining hole in London. - suggest change

Not just the place to be seen - the place to eat too
What can one say about The Ivy that hasn't been said before? Full of celebs and the well heeled, you might think this to be a credit-card breaker. Far from it.
Food is great, and great value.
Service is good without being stuffy.
Ambiance terrific, as you might expect.

Famously difficult to get a table, book well ahead and try an early sitting - pre-theatre is recommended!    [13 Nov 2003 08:19:48]

Not bad, but I like her sister better...
Graham Norton sat at the next table the day I was there. Which is kind of fitting, loud, entertaining, but not that classy (don't get me wrong, I love GN in all his crassness). The food was good, especially a side order of gratin dauphinois, but I have to say I prefer Le Caprice, The Ivy's sister restaurant. The staff are friendlier and the food is better in my humble opinion. Still, The Ivy is always good for people watching...    [15 Mar 2004 13:12:25]
