I HATE THIS RESTAURANT!!! – This HAS to be THE most over rated restaurant of all time! I have been here many times (both on Robertson and the ocean) unfortunately due to business meetings- and hands down they have THE worst service on the planet. A cocktail is $20, EACH. The food is AVERAGE and UBER EXPENSIVE. This is the biggest joke and most over hyped restaurant ever. I hate it, and have actually taken a stand NOT to have to go back there anymore... it's just too annoying. They must train their waiters to be bored automat... read more
Agree with You've Got to be Kidding – I've been eating here since 198something. One of my most favorite spots, until last Saturday. Terrible service, terrible food. Served me two dead mussels. Would have complained about the table by the wait station but didn't want to wait another hour. It had already been 1/2 hour after our reservation time when we got seated. Taking the glass from my husband's hand to refill it was unacceptable. No more raves from me and I doubt I will got back.
The experience at the Ivy is very consistent. Superb food and service. Portions are very good, too.
This place has fresh and amazing oysters! I like to come here just for the appetizers...they have a wonderful seafood menu and the food is prepared expertly. If you get nothing else, order up a freshly made Mai Tai--no syrupy solution in this one, it is all real fruit juice made right in front of you.
This place is a complete 180 from The Ivy on Robertson! – I have been to The Ivy on Robertson and that place is so overhyped & overpriced (not to mention the food sux), but this location across from the Santa Monica pier is fantastic! I've been here several times and each time I am surprised at how good it is (I had such low expectations at first based on my experience at Robertson). The last time I was here was for dinner (group of 4 w/o a reservation on a Friday nite) and were seated promptly and had friendly service. Yes,... read more
ARE YOU F'ING KIDDING ME? – WORST AUTOMOSPHERE. WORST SERVICE. WORST FOOD. WORST PRICES. My ears are still ringing. DONT BOTHER. You are OVER-PAYING for the possibility of seeing a celebrity. THATS IT. If you want good food, go somewhere else.
Best "Soft Shell Crab" anywhere....And believe me, I have tryed and no one comes close! Excellent Service!!! – I have been going to the Ivy for over 25 years. The Robertson location is more romantic but the Ivy at the Shore is right behind them and gaining. The food is the best attraction by far...drinks are a definite second and the service is second to none. By the way; this is what you pay the big dollars for...I call it the trifecta for restaurants....the best of ALL three categories! A lot of restaurants may have one or... read more
Oysters! Mai Tais! Mmmmmm! – This place has fresh and amazing oysters! I like to come here just for the appetizers...they have a wonderful seafood menu and the food is prepared expertly. If you get nothing else, order up a freshly made Mai Tai--no syrupy solution in this one, it is all real fruit juice made right in front of you. They have made me a Mai Tai snob!
excellent food and service, but not worth the price – The Ivy in a nutshell: superb food and service. The old location on Ocean was more romantic, especially the patio, but it's not horrible. However, the price point is stupid, similar in offensiveness to Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills. Portions are very good, but there's no way that you'd call this place a good value. At the end of the day, you're paying a huge premium to eat with other well-heeled (or highly-leveraged) patrons. The best drink is the gimlet.
