The Ivy Asia, Chelsea in Kensington and Chelsea

My cousin was over from Miami and I wanted to have a nice farewell meal my friend recommended IVY Asia and what a beautiful restaurant. We came Thursday 31/10/2024 4.00pm til 7.00pm The food was excellent but what topped it off for me was Dennis who serverd my part of 3. He looked after us so well and helped us decide on our food. I highly recommend this restaurant especially if you are lucky enough to have “Dennis the Menace” server you.

A very good restaurant that charges the prices of an excellent restaurant. Excellent decor and environment. Well staffed. Slightly blunt and forward staff but still nice. Wagyu beef was warm and tough, mango cocktail tasted watery and a little flavourless, seed lip mocktail was excellent. Starters were lukewarm, tempura was not crispy. Lamb main was excellent, juicy, perfectly cooked and tastefully seasoned. Excellent dragon ice cream and doughnut dessert with a wide selection of toppings to choose from on your plate (though would recommend sharing it)

We have gone to visit this restaurant after going to London for 4 years, it has always caught our attention for its decoration and its dishes. Our experience begins with the service, Divane was served by a waitress who was very attentive and willing to help us with all our questions. We were 4 diners. There were proposals for menus and individual dishes as well. We decided to try an experience called Black Shell, which has a variety of sushi and sashimi, on the advice of the waitress who tells us that it is an “abundant” dish that she believes would be enough for the 4 people at the table (the fact that this “menu” came with three pieces of each item, we asked if They could expand the menu to 4 pieces of each item. So we started there, the dish arrived with a magnificent presentation, but in terms of quantity it was a bit small... I understand that quality must be paid for and up to that point I agree. The sushi was very good, you could see the quality and above all how it was prepared... a light layer of rice and almost everything filled. After finishing this dish, which was not enough, we ordered 3 more sushi rolls because the first dish had not been enough. We have also ordered some cocktails which I must say were quite good. And to finish we have ordered a menu of varied desserts. The experience has been nice, we have eaten well and we have enjoyed the beautiful place and the beautiful atmosphere that was breathed there.

I was served by a lovely waitress called Litany! She was fast with the service and very hospitable! The food was delectable !

I honestly wish I could score an 11/10 for the waiter my boyfriend and I had last weekend. Litany was incredible! She was so friendly, funny, attentive and polite. Will be coming back esp for the steak.

It was a great time! I had a great time for my birthday, food was amazing and the service by waitress litany was wonderful! Would come back again!

Amazing service when I went the other day. My waiter was Litany and she was very attentive gave out the best service ever!

Got taken to this restaurant for a low key birthday dinner, first time attending one of the Ivy Asia restaurants and I was pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere was great although we did go at a busy time. The food was excellent and so was the service! Big thanks to Litany who served us. She really made us feel special and ensured that our every need was catered for!

Great food, great atmosphere, and great service!

Wow interiors and excellent service, food was great along with their list of wines. The lit flooring was incredible and it’s got a nice vibe in the restaurant. Must try the selection of dumplings and the sparkling sake.

It's fine. The place itself is beautiful - the floor in particular gets five stars. The food was great, just not Sexy Fish great. Loses a star for promoting a culture of slapping service charge on the bill - not good. The staff were a very mixed bag and not very coordinated. We had to order our wine twice, we got checked on by three different people. One guy dropped his tray of drinks by our table... twice. This cuisine and style is very competitive in London and I'm afraid there are better places available.

So this was my second experience with ivy Asia, the first being in Mayfair branch but after an awful experience decided to try the Chelsea branch instead for a date night. Although going in with high expectations I feel I was let down again and starting to feel as if this is a management issue across the chain with a lack of training for staff members. So the positive as always first. Staff are very friendly and always helpful which is nice to experience, the decor is beautiful and tables are spaced nicely for privacy. The food is cooked to perfection, full on flavour and generous portions. My concern this time was with the way the food was being Brought out, not with the time it took as that was perfect but with what came when. So on the menu it says you get wonton for the table not too sure you can call them wonton as they are more like Indian poppadoms but anyway that never arrived and I had to request it when it states that was your first thing to get before your starter. We ended up getting that before desert which if I did not notify the staff we would not have got it. Secondly the mains arrived and we did not get any rice or veg as stated in the menu and had to request it again, by the time the rice and veg arrived our food was starting to get cold and having the mains salmon or beef with no sides such as rice or veg as stated leaves you. Just sitting and waiting for it to arrive. I don't know if it is the kitchen staff not preparing the food how it should be served or the waiter not bringing it and forgetting it at the kitchen. These issues I did not have with the Mayfair branch but suffered different issues with the staff. It seems that the ivy chain has some. Issue with management not clearly making the staff understand what is supposed to be done around the restaurant and a lot of forgetting and mishaps seem to be a common occurrence now in the ivy chain. To be honest to wait around for side disheses while your main is getting cold is a bit annoying and I was not the only one the table next to me had a family of 4 and they demanded the side be taken of the bill as they ordered the sides for the main and it arrived when they already taken the main away as they finished. As a restaurant this is a significant failure which should be addressed as you cannot serve beef or fish on its own with no sides, in the meaning "sides" they are a side dish for your main.

We went for a 50th birthday celebration . Our waitress Karyna was amazing. From helping us choose our cocktails to ordering veggie friendly dishes , she was awesome. Food was delicious and very well presented. Desert was lovely way to end the evening. Oh and the live DJ took it another level 😄

Second time here. Found it pricey first time but we ordered from a la carte menu. This time we ordered from set menu. Excellent value for money. We came for special birthday celebration. They made a real effort. Lovely occasion and food was amazing

Ivy Asia is a feast for the eyes, which was lovely but didn't help our stomachs one bit. It's king of a celebration of pan-Asian design, but created in such an over-the-top way that it's almost insultingly ironic. The uniforms are tailored and jaw-dropping, and the floor, designed to look like jade, glows a lurid fluorescent green. Napkins are rolled and fastened with a dragon-shaped ring. The bar is bedecked in gold, the glassware is beautiful, and depending on where you're sitting, the ceiling is covered with either cherry blossoms or Chinese lanterns. I needed the loo. It’s a small restroom for a large restaurant, and there was a queue for the two urinals. There's a third, but they've stood a statue of a smirking samurai at it. Back in reality, we perused the menu. "It's a sharing concept", the host said. Ugh, I hate this service style now. It's been done to death. The prices are high, but not awful. There's a lot of choice, such as sushi, sashimi, small plates like gyoza and salads, larger plates like a duck and lobster fried rice, a robata beef section, and plates to share between two, like aromatic half-duck. There are tasting menus that give you the full experience, so the three of us took the ‘premium’ menu at £sixty-five per person. I'm delighted and, to be honest, surprised to say that Ivy Asia isn't a polished turd. The food was amazing, but as I said, were we in the right frame of mind since we were ravenous? I don’t know, but we enjoyed most of what was served. Wontons with yoghurt and Szechuan dips were gone in sixty seconds as the three of us hoovered them up. For me though, the seared beef tataki with ponzu dressing was the star of the meal, the soft slithers of beef melting in the mouth against the treacle umami dressing. My word, they can nail sushi too! Yellowtail rolls with asparagus were clean, refreshing and well-made. Fresh salmon sashimi was given the Ivy touch with a hint of truffle miso. The quality of the fish was such that the marinade was as needless as the bowl of smoking dry ice, on which they were served. Nevertheless, by the time the sushi and sashimi were finished, we were getting worried there wouldn't be enough food. I'm not even exaggerating. For three people, let alone three hungry people, the portions were lean. We asked the waiter for a plate of that amazing-sounding fried rice to share. "Uh-uh, you'll definitely not need that". Taking his word for it, we soldiered on to the hot starters of pork and chicken gyoza and Ebi prawn tempura. The tempura was lovely enough but lacked the showiness of the previous courses, which I was unashamedly buying into by now. To an extent, the gyoza also appeared in front of us a little on the beige side, but they were redeemed by virtue of being the best gyoza I've ever tried. With the dumpling having a decent integrity and a plump, spicy filling that didn’t explode into watery misery, I was in heaven. And to our relief, by now, we were filling up, just in time for the mains. Cod, slow roasted with a 48-hour miso was lovely but felt a little derivative, given that Nobu offers something almost exactly the same, but frankly better. I really enjoyed the salt and pepper beef fillet. It was succulent to me and paired well with a lime and pink pepper dressing. The mains were served with – I counted them – three pieces of bok choy and an laughably small pot of rice. Did we need the fried rice, I asked my other half? "We didn’t need it, but I would have eaten it". Another plume of dry ice heralded the arrival of the dessert plate, called 'Moon Dragon'. Choux buns were filled with chocolate cream. ‘Filled’ is a little generous of me, as some of them were, some of them weren't. The promised honeycomb cheesecake with yuzu caramel was three petits fours. There was a twist of vanilla ice cream and a miniscule pot of chocolate sauce that we had no idea what to do with. OK, so desserts aren’t Ivy Asia's thing, and that's fine. We opted for a second round of cocktails, which were wonderful. My Mango Sling was a dangerously smooth

5 S-ervice T-aste A-mbiance R-esponsiveness A must place to visit for a real good overall dining experience.

I went for dinner at the IVY Asia in Chelsea, let me start by saying the ambience is just stunning in there, I went with my partner on a Sunday evening so it wasn’t that busy which made our experience possibly lovelier, the staff was lovely, the food was lovely, it was just a beautiful evening, there parking on a side road which is free after 6pm I believe. I would recommend for a date night and I will definitely be going back again Staff 8/10 Food 8/10 Ambience 9/10 Definitely recommend

Food was great and good options for Vegetarians as well. Ambience is amazing, would definitely visit again.

This was our second time at Ivy Asia. Unfortunately we got moon festival drinks that had glitter in the outside and got all over everything which make the experience annoying. Food was very average, and dishes were forgotten. No accountability was taken for the sub-par experience other than an apology. I also had left a hat, that was ‘not found’… hard to believe. Quite disappointing.

We had the deluxe omakase menu, and I highly recommend. Every course was great, generous amount of food, and the atmosphere was incredible. Highly recommend! Cocktails were also excellent. Best thing I ate was probably the cod.

This is a great venue and always very busy. My only gripe is the loud club music blasting through the speakers with loud base. Does not lend to the ambience of an Asian restaurant. It felt like I was in a club . As the music was so loud, you needed to shout above it to be heard. Such a shame as this place has great food, great staff but loud club music lets it down

Staff and ambience were amazing. Cocktails were very good but the food was completely awful. The prawn dumplings were stodgy, the prawn curry and noddles were really bad. The chocolate moose bowl dessert was edible but also a let down. The decor is nice for photos and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Amazing food, everything was top notch. Really good flavours and nice portion sizes. We went for the premium taster menu which had everything in it from prawns and sushi to steak. The dessert was actually massive we couldn’t finish it all. I was really surprised about the value, I mean it’s not cheap but it’s not the most expensive you can find in London and for the quality of the food and how much you get it’s really really good. Of course make sure to pre book as it does get really busy. Friday evening and weekends you can find parking around the corner for free so generally all great.

Friendly, attentive staff. Nice atmosphere. Food and service was fantastic. Very busy at night so I recommend pre booking at table.

Came here for a birthday for a party of 7 people and had the premium experience menu - had an amazing experience! Cocktails were very unique, sweet and refreshing! Every dish was outstanding - favourite had to be the black miso cod. Only negatives were that we all asked for the steak to be rare, but came out more medium rare/medium side. Portions looked small for 7 people, but given the long gaps between dishes everyone did end up full. Gave us a complimentary mochi ice cream since it was a birthday was a nice touch. Amazing decor - everywhere you look is an amazing sight, and couldn’t help but react to the sudden surprise when going to the male bathroom. Despite booking couple weeks in advance the table they gave us for 7 people was a bit small and definitely a squeeze for all of us. Overall it was a very pleasant experience and would definitely recommend visiting once or for a special occasion, would 100% return!

Struggled with vegetarian food this time Shame they didn’t have much of a menu this time

Great space! I think the Ivy never disappoint!

Beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere and service ! Second time I am visiting this restaurant, the margarita’s are mind blowing although first time I have tried the food which was delicious and presentation was on a high quality, I must say the service is outstanding. David I believe was our main server , quite nice gentleman with great recommendations and very attentive ! Hosts uniform is really nice as well . Overall a down to earth, friendly place where you can enjoy either a drink with nibbles or a nice dinner with your friend . Definitely will come back again !

Great Asian food and excellent service. Exhilarating interior!

Mediocre food, overpriced drinks. Too loud music. Service could be better. We were unfortunately disappointed.

We just had lunch at Ivy Asia Chelsey. Very bad experience. We booked a table, came in time. Then they literally forced us to leave the restaurant after 1,5 hours, after we came in, ordered starters, mains, wine. They kept asking if we finished the food, if they can clean the table. When they saw an empty plate, they quickly removed it along with a plate with food remaining not even asking if we want to finish it. The portions were quite small, so we decided to order some more food, but they refused to take our order saying that there is a time limit of 1 hour 45 mins and they can only bring us a dessert. All this was in a very rude, demanding manner. At the same time nothing was said to people at the next tables, who were there before us. We were not in a mood to argue, refused their dessert menu, paid the bill and left to continue our evening at another restaurant. Advice: don’t go to Ivy Asia Chelsea restaurant, better find another one.

I had been to the Ivy Garden and wanted to try the Ivy Asia. I recently had lunch. Very nice place, well furnished, good cuisine, well presented dishes, good table service, very friendly staff. The tables are a bit small, there were three of us and we had a table for two people. The flaw is that we couldn't have dessert and coffee because we had to get up since they needed the table for other customers. So if you go there you have to have a quick lunch or dinner. However I recommend it.

Good food, but the service level is not of a good standard.

Went for my birthday with my partner. Food was great and top notch but what really let down the evening was the service. Our waiter seemed out it, not being really interested in serving us and ultimately looking miserable the whole time. He didn’t seem like he wanted to interact with us, which really was not great for such a special occasion. It was my first time going but I don’t think I want to go back if the service is at this level, despite the good food. You’re paying a premium for a lovely restaurant and interior but the service isn’t up to scratch.

Always great service, atmosphere and food. The shells are great value and delicious

Cheers to Nelson! Best service in town

Ivy Asia, Kings Road, Sunday, 1st of September, 16:25. I would love to review the food but no matter how many times I tried to have the food I ordered, served, it never arrived despite repeated assurances and apologies from the waiting staff that it was on it’s way. I would understand if the restaurant was busy or short staffed but it was far from full and there were staff teeming around. Our server eventually got her manager, who instead of coming over to us to explain the delay and possibly apologize about the situation stared at the screen on the restaurant’s ordering system for 10 minutes, scratching her head, then walked off - really odd, unprofessional behaviour. After 1 hour and 2 minutes we got up and left. Other patrons, at 2 separate tables, seated beside us, who came in after us, were served their starters and had finished their mains when we walked out. We were really looking forward to this meal as my son had been there the day before and had a great time. Staff training on customer relations might be a good idea, clearly the manager should be first in line!

Came here for my birthday with my partner and we had the most amazing evening! The food was all delicious and the waitress was so friendly and accommodating. It’s such a beautiful restaurant, overall a great night with great vibes!

This restaurant, like the rest of the Ivy branches was completely underwhelming. Slapping ‘Asia’ in front of the name doesn’t make it Asian. The service was terrible. The waiter asked my boyfriend his drink order three times, asked me whether I had my drink when he could clearly see that on the table there was no drink there after waiting 30 minutes. The food came out at different times so I had to start eating before my boyfriend. Despite all of this no apology from the waiter. We asked to take some of the food with us since they were closing soon and the waiter brought out plastic Tupperware for us to pack the food ourselves. My boyfriend tried to have a word and ask the waiter to pack the food in the back and he refused and gave us Tupperware with no bags. Completely classless and awful dining experience. As for the food, compared to other Pan Asian restaurants in the city, the food was pretty bad; the wagyu skewers were the only nice thing I ate and we ordered quite a few dishes. I usually love the miso black cod but theirs didn’t taste fresh - very fishy taste (in a bad way). Would never come back here. The only thing that was nice was the decor and the Dj.

Had the best night here, the team is fantastic ! Will definitely be returning ❤️ Sylvian is the best bartender ever!

Went there for a birthday treat and it was fabulous. Hectic and fast moving but good was great and service even better.

Amazing food and great experience, if you don't mind the weird guys leaning in the toilet. Food was fresh and extremely tasty. Would recommend and go again thanks for a great time.

Friendly staff and interesting decor. Some of the dishes I really liked.

Food was great and prepared quickly. Staff were attentive and offered to take my coat. Music style and volume didn't seem to suit the everything else... in my most humble opinion too nightclub ish....would've preferred some smooth UK Neo soul mmmmm

We visited Ivy Asia for my partner's birthday and had a fantastic experience. Our servers, Eric and Reece, provided exceptional 10/10 customer service. While the initial strawberry daiquiri was a bit watery, they quickly rectified it by adding strawberry syrup upon our request. The food was delicious, living up to the restaurant's reputation. To cap off the evening, Reece went above and beyond by taking great photos of us.

We visited this restaurant for my husband's birthday 28th June. The restaurant itself is beautiful however we were very disappointed with my food which came out cold, had to send back by the time mine had come back out to me, my husband had finished his, so basically we ate separately. Drinks were great, we had a gift voucher to use, when the bill came they gave us another customer's bill and had taken the money from the gift voucher, the other customer's bill was higher than ours. The staff reassured me that the money would go back onto my voucher. I have just checked my voucher this morning as we are due to go to another ivy to use the rest of the voucher and it's £16.30 short of what it should be.

The first time I came here about a year ago the menu was so much better, they did this fantastic Korean chicken dish with lettuce wraps and a bunch of other dishes that were amazing and these have all gone from the menu. I won't be going back as all the best dishes in my opinion have gone from the menu. Lastly the service on our last visit was terrible, unbelievably slow, nobody checking in on us for more drinks and made several mistakes with the drinks order.

Fantastic Food best service ever , by Klaudia ,thank you so much. I definitely will w back.🤗

Excellent experience! My server Klaudia was very nice and attentive! She really made my night. I will 100% be coming back!!!

The Ivy brands never lets you down! The vibes, service and food are all excellent. Great Japanese dishes, pan Asian noodles menu and the sushi section is super! Beautiful interior with great vibes and good drinks selection. Go for it!

We went there for a special birthday with our daughter and two friends on a Monday lunchtime, there was only 4 or 5 other tables eating, While the food was nice the service was shocking and rude, We had to wait ages to attract someone's attention to order some drinks, they missed one out after 15 minutes of no one coming back a friend went to the bar to order a glass of wine for his wife, he eas told to go back to the table and the same barman walked round and asked him what he wanted, he already knew but was just being pretentious. Again we had to attract attention to order some nibbles and starters for the table, they all arrived at different times and one was missing this turn up with the main course. When the main course turned up they did not even clear the dirty plates we had to move them to another table, another dish missed off and took ages to attract a waiter. After it was finished ordered a cup of earl grey tea which did not arrive till we paid the bill . Absolutely shocking service, cost loads and ruined a special birthday, They never once apologies, they had plenty of staff and hardly anyone in the restaurant on a quiet day. Stay clear unless you want poor service

My boyfriend and I treated ourselves to dinner at the Ivy Asia for our anniversary and everything was amazing! The food was all exquisite, the atmosphere was beautiful & colourful and the service was incredible. The staff were friendly and attentive and really made our special night feel extra special with complementary mochi

I was at your Chelsea venue last night and it wasn’t great. The service was pretty poor and the food wasn’t much better. Our order was taken wrong (missed off one of the dishes and you gave me tempura prawns inside of the tempura prawn rolls). The Korean Beef was very chewy and not great. This was my third visit this year and i’m not sure i’ll be returning anytime soon. The DJ was excellent as ever.

I had the most amazing experience at Ivy Asia Chelsea with my friend and his family! They absolutely loved every moment of it. We were a bit overwhelmed with the menu choices, so we decided to go for the premium set menu. And wow, everything was beyond delicious! The highlight of the night had to be the cod and beef tataki – so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Thank you for a wonderful evening. I really hope our server will get incentive.

I was wiped out for a week with food poisoning a few months ago. An investigation was done and having found nothing they took no accountability. Lobster and duck rice might have been the culprit.

We arrived early and had a warm welcome from the host who acknowledged that I had made the booking for an anniversary lunch and said they’d do something special at the end. That was very kind. We were seated promptly and ordered drinks and food. We ordered the veg tempura, the bonsai and steamed rice. The food was lovely unfortunately, we had almost finished the it all with no rice in sight. It wasn’t particularly busy, empty tables and a quiet Monday afternoon but hardly any staff around. Managed to eventually flag down the waiter and asked for the rice to be cancelled as it had not arrived. We only ordered three items off the menu so not sure how you can forget to bring a bowl of rice. Anyway, he didn’t seem too bothered so quick apology and brush under the carpet and it was taken off the bill. The table was cleared, not even offered a dessert menu and so I asked for the bill shortly after. The waiter brought the bill over, handed it to me, well I say handed but he flung it and it ended up hitting my husband in the face (not intentional I’m sure) but all very strange. Perhaps that was the “something special” at the end. We didn’t receive anything, not that we expected it however, probably best not to tell guests you will do something nice and then not deliver. Would I return? Maybe for the food but the service is left much to be desired… Great decor and pretty looking restaurant if you want to take nice pictures. Food was decent, lack of service and attentiveness was not great.

Exceptional food and bar man Sivan was one of the best bar men I’ve come across

Food was better than expected, service was good and the atmosphere was fun.

First time at Ivy Asia, although I had visited other Ivy restaurants before and was expecting a certain standard of food and service. Ivy Asia did not disappoint. Starting with the decor, the buzz, presentation, etc, it was the perfect place to take my daughter for her 21st birthday, as it is very instagrammable. The food was delicious and beautifully presented and the service not overbearing. My favourite dish was the “melt in your mouth” miso cod, stunning! The sushi was also great. The reason I gave it 4 stars is the price. There were 6 of us and the bill came to around £140pp with alcohol. Considering the place was packed, I guess it’s affordable for many. I would definitely go again but only for a special occasion because of the price. Also, look out for a surprise when entering the men’s toilets! Quite hilarious!

Food was great, fresh fish and nice sides. The restaurant is also very pretty and the atmosphere is perfect for a fancy night out. However the service is the weakness of this place. The lady that served us didn’t care that much about us, she became a little more interested when we started ordering more food during the night. Still every client has the same worth, so all good we were just a bit disappointed.

I was delighted to visit The Ivy Asia in Chelsea. We went to celebrate my friend’s birthday and ordered the 2-course Asian taste menu, which was exquisite. The atmosphere was incredibly Instagrammable, adding to the overall experience. However, I must admit I was a bit startled by the samurai sculpture in the bathroom.

Great ambiance but unfortunately the food is just average. Ordered a cocktail which never arrived and upon checking, it seems the server forgot to punch the order in the system thought the restaurant only had 2-3 tables busy with guests. 3rd time at an Ivy restaurant and the issue with service tells me that there is something fundamentally wrong with their personnel management. We ordered from the set menu and while the Beef teriyaki was ok, seafood dumplings were not good at all.

Blackened cod is very small for £36 or so. Had to ask where our bottle of wine was as needed a refill. The waiter also cleared my friends plate away whilst I was eating 🙃

I came in for drinks and had some fabulous cocktails. I cannot vouch for the food this time but I will be back!

Celebrated my grandchildren 21st birthday, and all of us enjoyed the food 🎂 🥳

The staff are lovely and very helpful. The food was exceptional, would highly recommend the popcorn shrimp. The interior in the restaurant is so nice.

Absolutely worth it to try, music, food, ambient, everything was excellent, definitely coming back! Ges the host she was so Friendly and attentive.

I went for my friends birthday to the Ivy, the experience was absolutely brilliant, We got so much attention from the service and the food is absolutely delicious, such a vibe and it’s just in the middle of Chelsea. I really recommend this place.

We went for dinner with a group of friends and I have to say we had one of the best night in London, all the staff was so friendly and they had a DJ playing great music 🎶, the food was so delicious and amazing👌🏼 definitely reccomend a visit. especially this branch in Chelsea we liked it better than others

Every time I visit the UK, I NEED to visit this place at least once! Everything is just amazing! Recommend for every and anyone!

Amazing. Delicious food, the prawn toast was absolutely outstanding. I would go back all the way to this particular establishment The Ivy Asia just to get the prawn toast.

Nice restaurant and they’ve obviously invested a lot into how it looks. However the food was really disappointing. Bland food that doesn’t deliver on flavour and really overpriced. My dish was also a bit cold. I ordered the duck spring rolls and they were almost entirely filled with veg. It’s really obvious where they try to increase their margins by compromising on quality.

Love this place. Can’t speak highly enough of the Ivy Asia. Great food, atmosphere and service.

Most precious place i have ever been

Went as a group of 7 and service was great from beginning to end. Cocktails were lovely and I appreciated the mention on the menus of the mixologist who created most of the signature ones. Such great way of recognition! Food was great, we all had the experience menu which I found was fairly priced considering the quality and quantity of food! The showstopper was the dessert platter - try it, you won't regret it!

We went to the ivy Asia Chelsea with my 2 best friends for one of their bachelorette celebrations. To start with the positives - The interior is absolutely beautiful, we couldn’t stop looking around and especially at the floor! It’s definitely a place you want to go to at least once purely for the sake of the decor. The staff were amazing and very attentive. I had requested something special for my friend as it was her bachelorette and they didn’t forget. & some of the negatives - The only disappointing part was some of the food. The starters were lovely - we got the popcorn shrimp and the vegetable tempura. I had miso black cod for my main which was absolutely incredible but a very small portion with zero sides for £35 was a little bit steep. Even a small salad or greens would have sufficed but it came with a few slices of radish. As for my friends, they got the schezuan tofu dish which we all agreed was a bit disappointing. It was good, but for over £20 a plate, we were expecting more with the taste and even the presentation. Tasted very much like an average tofu and vegetable meal I could put together at home in 15 mins. On another note - the cocktails were lovely! Overall, the food was okay. For the prices and the atmosphere we definitely expected more. I’d probably come back purely for the decor and experience but maybe I’ll stick to drinks next time!

I had an amazing time here for dinner with my friends. The food was delicious and all the staff were very attentive, polite and friendly. I would definitely recommend visiting.

Lovely presentation of food and delish too!!

Went to Ivy Asia with my friend visiting from Canada and we absolutely loved it. The interior is beautiful, great service and food! Perfect place to show off a great restaurant in London to your friends.

**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️** I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Ivy Asia and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The sushi here is truly outstanding—each piece is crafted with the utmost precision and the freshest ingredients. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality and artistry behind every dish make it worth every penny. The ambiance is elegant and welcoming, perfect for a special occasion or a night out. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive, enhancing the overall dining experience. I highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy top-tier sushi in a refined setting.

The service here was amazing 🤩.

The lunch was fantastic and the services how ever I like the most is that were explained everything in each food…

Amazing experience all around Yummy food and great bar staff ! Will come back !!!

My favourite out of all the Ivy Asias, Nora served us and she was amazing. Made the night so lovely and the food was delicious !

Beautiful decor, decent food and mediocre cocktails. Overall a little disappointed for a London Asian restaurant

Great food, but only go if you like really stressful environments and don't want to talk to your anyone at your table. There's a DJ playing unnecessarily loud music with speakers above most tables, meaning no one can hear each other. All the tables end up having shouting matches over each other to try and communicate, making it a stressful way to spend the evening.

What a beautiful place with unreal decoration. The food and service was amazing couldn’t have asked for more. Such a clean restaurant as well. A huge thank you to our waiter Naidu was so polite and welcoming. Nothing we asked for was a problem and he was just brilliant. I hope he gets the praise he deserves!

Extremely good experience for first time in Asian cuisine and the waiter Nicolas who looked after us the experience unforgettable Well done Nicolas

The only good thing about this place is how respectful the staff are, to be honest. I wouldn’t pay what I paid for the food I had. I felt sick after.

Dining at The Ivy Asia in Chelsea was an exquisite experience. Eric, our waiter, provided impeccable service, enhancing our evening with his attentive and knowledgeable demeanor. The 2006 Dom Pérignon was a superb choice, its fine bubbles and complex flavors perfectly complementing our luxurious meal. The selection of seafood and caviar was fresh and delightful, each bite bursting with delicate flavors. The wagyu was a highlight, melting in our mouths with its rich, buttery texture. This unforgettable dining experience showcased the best in food, drink, and service.

Great vibe and atmosphere. Food is so and so.

Tacky ambience and clientele. Definitely no locals here. Common looking great during day but I am sure it could look fun at night. Food was not great. At all. The ivy is “a brand” this place has the name but not the taste.

Food okay, duck salad is the only thing i can recommend as being overly tasteful. Service mediocre from Ntenis who either needs a day off or needs training in customer service. Wouldnt return in a rush

You'll be paying for the deco which is great, because the food is average. Ordered the wanton starters, expecting little dumplings but was served with crisps with sauces (no fillings). Waitress argued that this is what wanton is. The specialty peking duck was served in a fancy manner but sadly the duck skin was not at all crispy, which is fundamental.

We did the Ivy Asia experience menu, very good varied menu with lots of different tastes, a lovely experience and we will be back.

Gorgeous food, amazing cocktails and fantastic surgery. Scott and Farris were amazing servers will defo be back, thanks for the recommendations!!!

Genuinely beautiful experience, and some fun theatre mixed in.

We had such a special time when we visited for lunch. The level of service and food was outstanding! Maggie was looking after us and was so attentive from start to finish. I couldn’t recommend enough!!

Visited this restaurant last month for dinner it was really a good place to spend sometime with friends and family love the music and ambiance and when it comes to food it was really nice and staff over there were friendly maintained good hospitality service thanks to naidu(employee) for suggesting this place.

A truly 5 star experience from top to bottom. Food was delicious and plentiful. Staff were outstanding, particularly Maggie who was looking after us. Clearly a very well run establishment
