My husband and I went for a Saturday lunch. Smoked salmon, steak tartare for starters, steak and chicken Milanese for mains, bottle of wine, two Birthday Desserts, two coffees, total a little short of £200. All food was delicious and served promptly by a very efficient, polite and smiley waitress. We were neither rushed nor left waiting unduly. We have been at the Richmond Ivy many times before and the only thing wanting is the rather small menu which doesn’t change often enough hence visits not as frequent as they could be.

Went for lunch on a Saturday, four of us. Had one course each and a few drinks. Having been to other Ivy's recently I have some benchmarks. First table service was slow. We had to ask for them to take our order after waiting 15mins. Water and drinks water also slow. Plates were rather unceremoniously delivered to the table with lack of care or finesse but rather dropped in front of us. All from a member of staff whom later told one of our party they were leaving the following week. My beef tartar can only be described as being flicked on to the plate, so much so at one point I thought some of it was going to end up in my friends eye. Witnessing two of the waiting staff arguing in front of tables, twice, was not a good look. It seems as though a table had complained at how long they had waited for their main course (see the theme here) and each waiter blamed the other for not processing the ticket. Paying was as hard as ordering with a 10minute wait to try and attract the attention of any of the staff looking semi competent at being able of operating a payment machine. They were busy arguing. Finally on the way out I used the toilet. Firstly greeted by a member of kitchen staff using the facilities which I found inappropriate. Secondly after washing my hands there were no paper towels available to dry and the electric hand dryer on the wall didn't work. Real let down given our other Ivy experiences. I'd avoid this one until management can fix basic issues.

A busy restaurant and I would definitely book in advance. Great atmosphere. Wonderful service from the minute we arrived. Our waiter Connor was amazing. Personable and attentive. A real credit to the venue and the hospitality industry. Couldn't fault him. Well done.

Visited recently for Sunday lunch with the family. I’ve been to various Ivy restaurants (including this one) before but this was sadly very underwhelming. I love the decor and staff were lovely but food was not up to usual standards. Smoked salmon starter was very thin, small and lacking in flavour, Curry (monkfish & prawn) was tasty but again really small portion and lacking in substance. Prices aren’t cheap and I’m not sure I will rush back in a hurry.

Had booked for mother's day six weeks ago as a special treat. No offer of water or drinks on arrival. We had wave down the waiting staff after 20 mins to try and get served. My daughter asked for no cheese on burger. Her burger was brought to the table with cheese. We complained...they took it away, scraped off the cheese and then brought it back. Ordered a spinach side...had to ask for it twice. Arrived when almost finished meal. No apology. Generally inattentive service. £300 bill. Has really put us off ever going again.

A superb experience. Last Sunday we had my husband’s 70th birthday lunch in The Isabella Room at The Ivy in Richmond. There were 18 people and a toddler. Efficient, clear and fast communication every step of the way. Attention to detail top rate. Carolina was the person with whom I corresponded and who made the process stress-free, pleasant and seamless. Beautiful room, flowers, music and attention to detail. So many excellent comments about the food - and that warm soda bread is to die for! ENORMOUS thanks to the man looking after us - Anthony. He was totally in control at all times, read the room, anticipated small things, re-prioritised easily and had a fabulous smile and perfect disposition. And my grandson loved him! Thank you so very much, Anthony.

We have been to the Ivy Richmond many times and it was always one of our favourite treats. But last night was very disappointing. We arrived at 4.30pm and it was extremely quiet, but the service we received was still very slow and almost as an after-thought. I had requested a celebration desert for my husband's birthday, as The Ivy always asks for information about the occasion and bring a small cake as a complimentary treat. Upon booking on the app it also stated that the booking would entitle us to this. However, this wasn't forthcoming and I didn't feel I could ask. Just little things, like the removal of hand towels in the loo, and inattentive service - they all add up, especially when the prices continue to rise (£6.95 for one bottle of beer). A real shame because this was the best Ivy of all and it feels like standards are slipping.

We’ve been to The Ivy in Richmond a few times as we live just round the corner. Generally the food is good, but the service levels are average. Last night was very disappointing in terms of service as numerous instances throughout the evening just added up to an overall experience that was pretty underwhelming. Full disclosure, we had booked for four but due to illness only three turned up. As their online booking system makes it hard/impossible to change the number of diners, we alerted them of this change on arrival. The following list highlights a few selected instances of not-so-great service on the night: - we arrived on time and were told (despite there being free tables on the ground floor) that we would need to go to the smaller upstairs room. When we queried this, we were told we could wait (why? There was at least one appropriately sized table free) for a table downstairs. The upstairs room is much smaller, with zero atmosphere. It was also served by a single waitress (not her fault) which impacted service levels. So don’t believe their website which says that specific tables can’t be pre-booked and are allocated on arrival, or words to that effect - as we were being shown to the stairs, we asked whether we could at least leave our coats in the cloakroom. This was apparently possible (!) but we were then made to wait at the foot of the stairs whilst the seater went back across the restaurant to the cloakroom to drop off our coats. All the while fuming that we could see empty tables on the ground floor - the service upstairs was not great, possibly as the poor lone waitress was overworked. Everything took a while to arrive, we had to ask to order, the wine arrived after most of us had finished our first course (I had stopped eating by this point so I could at least have a sip of wine with the remains of my starter), the coffee took ages and arrived cold with no sugar, which then took a while to arrive (when I asked, they did bring me a new cup as by then mine was pretty luke warm), etc. etc. - on leaving, we waited a while at the cloakroom to get our coats, but as there was no-one on the front desk, and no-one on the cloakroom, after a few minutes we just helped ourselves to our coats and left. There are plenty of restaurants in Richmond which offer better value and where the service levels are better, which is a real shame, as the food here is pretty good. It will be a while before we return.

Arrived at 1.45pm with my elderly parents for a birthday lunch. Very slow serving us after sitting down. So nothing in table for 25 minutes. Finally ordered, soup arrived around 245pm. Tasted OK but was tepid. Had already asked for bread, which finally arrived as we were finishing soup,despite constantly trying to get waiter's attention. When waiter poured wine, bottle dripped on the table. Left bottle in bucket away from table, and abandoned it. Main course arrived at 320pm, after we had complained about the wait to the manager. Some excuse about UT issues and a flood last week. Finished our main course, didn't dare ask for dessert as could have been there all night. Bill arrived 55£ a head, service included, not one word of apology. Food acceptable for the price but service was awful. Wouldn't dream of going back.

I have been to The Ivy in Richmond over 10 times since it opened and have recommended it to many friends/family. Thursday 8.2.24 is the first time I have been disappointed. I was at the restaurant to celebrate my birthday 🎂 The food was delicious but the Customer Care was unacceptable. There was a ceiling leak and we were getting drips falling on our table . We had to ask to be moved🤷♀️We were eventually moved to another table and then found ourselves sitting in a pool of water 🤦🏼♀️ The restaurant resembled a water park ! For H&S reasons the restaurant should have been closed And to top it off the Bill included a Service Charge ! 2 very unhappy Customers

They had run out of most of the non veg options. Service was slow, meal was cold but we’d waited over an hr for our meals, we just wanted to eat and go.

As the bar had no chairs together the host asked us to asked to some customer to change themselves in order to accommodate us, a very awkward way to welcome the guests, surely we were basically invited to get out of the establishment,what a shame.

Even though the food and interior was good, the service (our waitress) was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I heard it about this place, but hoped that it’s not common.

Disappointing. Had a simple clear conversation with server about wishing my eggs poached not hard but not runny, I explained more jammy than milky. He didn't even allow a moment to speak up as clearly eggs pale yellow fully hard. One was slightly not hard in middle but not at all what we agreed. He disappeared. Presentation a mess, cheap muffins and lukewarm small boat of hollandaise sauce. It was all just cheap, not what you bother to book the Ivy for. Absolute no server till I asked for a bill when he happened to seat people next to us. I didn't bother to complain, why make others uncomfortable, the meal and date was not at all what I planned for. If I always had such a bad experience I would not have bothered. It was not extremely busy so I don't understand. I also wrote to the Ivy as they would probably prefer direct feedback , which they ignored so public review is my only option.

En general, recomiendo este restaurante si buscas una comida sabrosa, pero no esperes salir con el estómago lleno.

Forgotten at the bar waiting to be seated - wobbly table - various items unavailable on menu - we walked out. Avoid for dates/business. The Ivy have been invited to comment - here is the complaint lodged: I’m writing to report a complaint about The Ivy, Richmond re. a dinner reservation on Saturday, 6th January at 7pm. My partner and I had a reservation for 7pm and arrived on time at 6.50pm. We were instructed to wait at the bar and told our table would be ready in five minutes. Twenty minutes passed and we had been forgotten, so I reminded a friendly server that we were waiting and we were then taken to our table (7.15pm). We were given a table that wobbled, so we waited again for our server to return to request alternative seating. Unfortunately, a significant amount of time passed before they returned (now approx 7.25pm). We were not given the option to move to a different table; our server inserted something under the short leg of the table in view of neighbouring diners. This is The Ivy, Richmond. Really most embarrassing and undignified. There was no sincere acknowledgement of our wait or the inconvenience caused. Our server then proceeded to tell us everything that was unavailable on the menu as they had run out of various items. At this point we requested our coats and left the restaurant. The staff were polite but there was absolutely no attempt to apologise and rectify the situation. Colossal disappointment.

Overall good experience. Good food, nice atmosphere and decor inside, as you come to expect from the Ivy. Some ways in which can be improved: - more rice with the duck curry, their standard portion seems strangely small. - ensure food is hot when served. The curry comes in a pot which is heated by a candle. Candle only lit at the table, so took some time for the curry to actually be hot. - Waiter seemed stressed and was a bit annoying as a result

Decor entering ,was like a hall of eglomise mirrors come merino lightning stunning pictures on every wall draws you in . Well dressed dineing tables throughout Some in quiet corners and most attentive staff.

Little that I cannot say about this place that gives it less than 5 stars. Absolutely loved every bit of our experience here. Food was top notch, my steak was cooked perfectly, the blackened cod was tender and juicy, and the lamb bolognese pasta for my child was delicious. Great cocktails too, my only wish was for more time to try out other cocktails. For dessert, we had the chocolate bombe which I think the three of us licked the plate clean. Will definitely be back, as our 4 year old was super happy with the food. Only recommendation would be to provide some kids activity such as coloring pads etc.

Shocking slow service (45 mins) considering they only allow you 1 hour this is not great, wonky tables which resulted in 2 pricy drinks lost, wonky cake stands had to fold up a napkin so they didn't fall over, had to ask for plates etc. Doubt any of our party of 7 would return especially as the added on £40 "service" fee which would have been fine if the service was good.

Lovely food, great atmosphere with the added bonus of sharing it with wonderful colleagues (a great place for a work/team lunch)

I had a meal there a few weeks ago. It was rather pricey and portion was so so. Nice cosy atmosphere inside the restaurant but too bad we were sat in a corner and all I could see was 2 walls in front of me

I went with my friend last week to Ivy to celebrate Christmas. Unfortunately it was not a great experience. We had to wait a lot for everything: waiter/menu/drinks/food. I had the salmon and I got food poisoning on the following morning. From 03.00 am I...

We had an amazing lunch time. Our server was Lux and she was very adorable, helpful and joyful. Also other servers that pass by or ask a small things were very nice and lovely to use ;). Food was quite decent, desserts very unique. Looking forward to come back one day

The Ivy in Richmond is in a lovely setting close to the high street and the river. Even on a wet Sunday before Christmas it is charming. Perfect in fact for taking Granny out for a pre Xmas treat. Food was good if not outstanding,...

I’ve been here loads of times. Such a friendly team. But this time I had lunch. As a meat eater I wouldn’t normally think to come here, but the food was excellent. I had the Bollywood dog, a vegetaria

We had a couple of cocktails, one was good the other one was lacking and didn’t taste of anything. Provided feedback but they weren’t interested in rectifying. Toilets are clean.
