Slightly more reclusive seaside sibling to paparazzi-filled Robertson Boulevard location caters to millionaire beach bums with families in tow. – In Short Coveted front patio seating across from the boardwalk connects to the main dining area, where a tastefully retro Hawaiian theme channels wicker and hues of pink and green. Model ships float in high-arched windows, anchored atop seashell-bordered mirrors which reflect the mismatched china adorning impeccably set tables. Sun-kissed Hollywood deal-makers hailing from the Pali... read more

Had a very HOT date here! – I have been with my honey for a couple years now. Coming here made us feel like we were "new". I picked this place because it was a special occasion for us. I've heard the BH location is better, but I much prefer the beach. We had a dark corner table right a dusk. The boardwalk was all alit and the ocean was on fire. Beautiful! I had the most awesome "Grilled Vegetable Salad w/ Grilled Shrimp"! It was an entree dish and I was in the mood for light. My honey had the Swordfish, he liked it alot! It ... read more

Fine Dining at the Shore – Located right near the Santa Monica Pier, Ivy at the Shore is a great place to have a very nice meal and spot a few celebrities. They make great smoothies and amazing desserts. And while the service is not astounding, it is definitely better than the Ivy in Beverly Hills.

Over Priced – I thought this place was over priced, over crowded and over rated. Not as good as you would expect from the hype. They try to cram too many people in a little area therefore causing the waiters to bump into your chair each time they walk by. Because it's located in Santa Monica, you get too many tourist.

A Nice Meal – My husband and I go to Ivy at the Shore every Valentine's Day and have never been disappointed. I love the steamed clams appetizer as well as the crab cakes. I also love the famous Ivy Gimlets for drinks, yummy! For dinner I usually get the prime rib and it is usually HUGE and very delicious. I have a whole meal left over for the next day. The atmosphere is very casual (it is the beach after all) and the service has always been very sharply attentive and friendly.

Not worth it. – Passive, slow, impersonal and casual serivce. Most dishes try to be gourmet imitations. Overpriced, for the quality of dishes served. Not much of an atmosphere to speak of on a Saturday brunch. Clientele, mostly has beens. Funky and very feminine decor.

They don't care – I have eaten at the Ivy, so I thought that i new what to expect. I was amazed at the poor, inattentive service, the long wait for cold food and the lack of any concern by the management.

not bargain – i could not find the $20 tacos. they had every other fast food with an extra zero in the price, so i was very disappointed and would suggest kfc or taco bell.
