The restaurant was closed so we were directed by the Ivy Hotel front desk clerk to sit in the bar/lounge area. No signage explaining this anywhere. The service was slow, no bread service offered (yet a Bolognese is on the menu?). When the server was asked if any bread was available, she smiled and said, “No,” and walked away. No one ever asked how we were doing, or if we wanted anything else, and we had to flag someone down to get our check. The food was good, however.

The hotel is locked at the skyway level coming from Orchestra Hall. We were able to get in only because someone came out. We won't be returning until this is fixed

Hi Richasfd, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely regret the inconvenience you experienced with access from the skyway level. We will be looking into this to ensure a better experience for all our guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.

It was a nice way to celebrate Mother's Day. However, I have to say that with a pre fixe price of $45 per person (paid in advance), it felt excessive to charge $5 for every coffee refill, adding an extra $50 on top of the bill for our party. It was also disappointing that the buffet was not freshened more frequently.
BrevaResponded on May 12, 2025
Hi Paul, Thank you for celebrating Mother’s Day with us and for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the occasion, but we regret that certain aspects of your experience didn’t meet expectations.

Had Easter brunch here. Food was delicious and it was quiet so conversation was easy. It wasn’t very busy so may not always be as quiet. Our server was great.

Not worth the money - Breva has become another overpriced hotel restaurant with average food - they also eliminated the pre-theatre menu - Monello (previous restaurant tenant) was much better.
