The Ivy is always a nice dining experience and the service is very good. Some of my favorites include the ribs, the burger and the steak. Be sure to try their signature drink - the Ivy Gimlet!
Don't bother - it's not what it used to be! – Dear Ivy, You have always been one of our favorite restaurants. We are Malibu locals and have been coming for years. Unfortunately, last night you blew it! We had heard from so many other people that the service was getting bad, the food wasn't as good as it used to be, but still we kept coming. Then Last night we experienced the worst restaurant service ever! It's so sad to see that you are now a tourist trap restaurant. Thanks for the memories and good bye forever, Your former ... read more
Not for foodies – The food is just okay for a high end, top of the line LA restaurant. It is fresh and tasty but in my opinion not really special but the Ivy at the Shore is more for the atmosphere.
A little overpriced, but you're paying for the view – I like this place-- good food, great patio seating area with a great view. If you want more privacy, the back room is nice too. The food isn't bad at all, its just a little overpriced... but hey, its a restaurant on Ocean Ave. and you have to consider the much more expensive restaurants adjacent to the Ivy. Overall, I think this place is a good place to eat if you have guests and want to take them to a posh/trendy place on the beach, but don't want to spend too much money... read more
Very friendly staff – Had to take a second to post a good review - the one (and only) time I have been there which was just a few months ago, the staff could not have been friendlier. My 1.5 year old son was with us and he was quite the toddler at the table, eventually spilling an entire bloody mary all over our table. The wait staff handled it so kindly and they continually came by to try to entertain him and keep him occupied. I was very impressed.
Great experience 8/15/09 – we had out of town visitors and had never been here before. great food, service was excellent. especially appreciated our waiter, a charming irish guy who was very attentive & friendly & helped us with menu choices. all in all, a really great experience!
Great food - wonderful service – There were 7 of us and we were seated separately because there were not enough tables large enough on the porch. After being seated we told the waiter we wanted to all sit together. Not a problem they seated us inside and were most helpful. It was a family get together and we all were having fun and acting silly. The food was all DELICIOUS! I had the mushroom pizza - so good. Three others had the fish and chips they truly enjoyed it. When we left we went over an apologized for our silly behav... read more
Avoid at all costs – We have gone twice in the past two months and have had an awful experience both times. The service is absolutely horrific. There is no one to greet you when you arrive, there doesn't seem to be anyone in charge to assist you and the confusion at each table being served is laughable (if it wasn't costing you $100 per diner). The food presentation is unacceptable, seems like sides are just slapped on. Make sure you ask the price of the specials since they are all around $50 each compared with the $27-35 ra... read more
Over rated DO NOT go there Not Worth the money! – I waas visting LA from the ATL and reservations was made for us to this restaurant. I have never tasted food so horrible. It is not worth the $101.00 we spent there. I had salad with mostly lettuce and hardly no meat. They did not have bottled wine in the White Zinfadel only glass, which i thought was not a good thing. The waiters were bumping into each other, we were checked on to see if everything was okay. I ususally complain to the manager of a restaurant I decided not to... read more
