Beoordelingen
We phoned ahead as we were travelling with bags and wanted to check whether they could accommodate them. We were told yes, and on arrival the ladies on reservations immediately made a table available where we could place our luggage without any inconvenience.The food was excellent and the service matched it. I had a voucher for The Ivy that was due to expire on 12.07.2026, and Guest Relations kindly extended it until 30.07.2026 due to the unforseen circumstance, so I could use it today.The Ivy Kensington is a great choice for any occasion. The staff are friendly and attentive, the chefs are outstanding, and the quality of the food is exceptionally high. I can highly recommend it.
⭐⭐⭐⭐An Exceptional Dining Experience at The Ivy Kensington From the moment I walked into The Ivy Kensington, I knew I was in for something special. The cool ambience & awesome vibe, impeccable service, and outstanding cuisine combined to create one of the finest dining experiences I have had in the UK. What truly sets this restaurant apart is its people. A heartfelt thank you to Albi, whose professionalism and warm hospitality made my visit memorable. My sincere appreciation also goes to Binta, whose attentiveness and genuine smile made me feel exceptionally welcome. Kudos also to the awesome hostess Crystal for ensuring that I got a table although I hadn’t booked. She went far and beyond to ensure I got one after waiting for a short while at the bar, and to Vishal who looked after me on my first visit with such courtesy and care. I must also commend the talented barman Ankit , whose cocktails were simply outstanding—expertly crafted, beautifully presented, and among the very best I have enjoyed. The food was equally exceptional. The crispy shrimp starter was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavour. The highlight of my meal, however, was the Seafood Linguine—without question the finest pasta dish I have tasted anywhere in the UK. Fresh, perfectly balanced, and beautifully presented, it was a masterpiece. In an era where genuine hospitality is increasingly rare, The Ivy Kensington delivers excellence effortlessly. It is more than a restaurant; it is an experience where every detail matters and every guest is treated with warmth and respect. I will undoubtedly be returning, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking exceptional food, impeccable service, and an unforgettable dining experience in London. If you’re looking for a restaurant that consistently exceeds expectations, make The Ivy Kensington your next destination—you won’t regret it.
A very enjoyable dinner at The Ivy Kensington Brasserie. The scallops were beautifully presented and full of flavour, while the ribeye was tender, well cooked and satisfying. The atmosphere was elegant and lively, and the service was friendly and professional. Overall, a lovely experience, although a few small details could have been improved to make it truly exceptional. I would happily return.
An excellent recommendation made to us following a cancellation elsewhere. Khaled was an exceptional waiter, he was attentive, interested and polite. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was excellent. Washed down with some bubbles and beers. Great birthday celebration.
Don’t let this place scare you. This place is perfect for dress up dates or dress down casual Monday night dinner if you want to show up in a tshirt. This restaurant is one of the best in Kensington. We came in on a Friday night, we had a reservation at 6 for 3 people. We came at 5:45 we got seated right away. They have a 2-3 course menu and it is a phenomenal deal if you are looking for something affordable. I opted in for 2 course meal because I’m not big on dessert. I got the crispy duck salad as the starter and the 8oz sirloin with green beans for the main. Both courses were 5 out of 5. Service was great as well they came and check on us every 10-15 mins asking if everything was ok. I stay near by for work regularly and I will definitely come back for more.
