    Good menu and service. Location is understanbly busy being Covent Garden. Noise levels too high, there was a good singer but mic too loud and we were sitting outside. A bit of an issue with mice, we had a group of 5 who kept running by the flowers area and when we mentioned it to the waiter all is said was "This is London"... err, this is the Ivy and I would expect you to disinfest on a regulat basis...

    There's a particularly poor table for two right by the toilets, to which I was shown. Having booked weeks ahead, I was expecting better and I said as much to my host. When I asked to move I was told that that was all that was available, and the host waved her arm around the room to show me that it was full. Indeed it was. But full of people who had booked weeks ahead? I doubt it. Full of white people? Very much so. As a middle-aged Black woman I'm pretty alert to being overlooked and sidelined, to being made to wait, to getting assigned a duff table in restaurants and rooms in hotels. My antennae were up. When my business guest arrived the very first thing she said, completely unprompted, was, 'This is the worst table I've ever seen.' We asked to be reseated outside on the terrace - from which point everything was fine: the service was good. It's entirely possible that I'm being paranoid, but it was an experience I really didn't enjoy so I won't be returning.

    As this was a lunch I decided to have the burger, I opted for cheese and bacon to be added ! My husband had chicken in breadcrumbs ( very plain no flavour) the positive was that the sauce that came with it was lovely ! We shared the trifle for dessert was fabulous! We had a pineapple juice and a shandy and was just over £80. The bathrooms were both very clean, the service by lovely staff was great, so overall wouldn’t recommend the chicken unless you like very plain and dry and a little overpriced but it is in Covent Garden ! Thankyou

    Did not expect the quality of the food to be that good. I had dinner with wife. She had the sirloin, I had seared tuna with chimichurri. Both were ridiculously good. And the dessert. I loved my strawberry with cream thing. Wife had the chocolate with pistachio. It was just a great meal in pleasant surroundings. Well done.
