    This is one of my partner's bucket list restaurants and we finally got to check it out in February 2026. It's exactly as we expected, with a mix of tourists and Beverly Hills area folks. Pretty floral/garden themed decor with some "rustic" furniture here and there make it seem less pretentious although the pricing and service definitely are in the "upscale" tier. The food was OK for me. My partner ordered the carne asada and I ordered chicken. Neither dish made us think we need to come back for more. The service was wonderful. The cocktails were on the weak side for the price, but I understand where we are here. We may go back on our next trip to LA but there are so many other great choices. Street parking was easy to find, but we did go at 1:30pm on a Tuesday.

    Very cute, quaint, historic setting. I would recommend sitting outside if possible. We almost got sat at this table in the corner inside where one of people can't even see anything aside from an Eiffel Tower statue. Luckily we were able to ask if we could wait 15 more minutes from an outside table. The iced coffee was great, the Cesar salad appetizer was also very good and fresh, the lobster pasta was also pretty good with fresh lobster, and the lobster benefits were also good with the potatoes. The included scones are also amazing. For those who frequent the restroom, it was very nice even with poperie, but there are only 2 bathrooms and always a line. Love it, definitely pricey but all fresh and great ambiance.

    Lobster tacos

    Definitely the place to be. Food was unique and delicious but price tag probably should have included a star sighting as well :) enjoyed the lobster tacos and the lobster scramble looked delicious. Overall, a must try experience.

    You've seen it in dozens of movies, so the Ivy is a must-try for every Angeleno, at least once. My first time there was to commemorate an occasion, and it was the perfect place for a special outing. The place is visually interesting and unique - multicoloured roses on every table, primary-hued vintage-bulb Christmas lights, charmingly printed pottery dishes, and farmhouse décor. Service is impeccable, efficient and aware of the possibility of high-profile clientele. It's an odd mix of upscale and homespun. The cocktails were incredible - fresh-tasting and delicious. We tried the LA G&T and the mango pineapple margarita. We also enjoyed a strong espresso martini with dessert. With dinner, you'll receive a complimentary small, dense bread round with butter. The rib plate was nice, juicy meat with a flavourful sauce, slaw, crispy french fries. The lobster ravioli in pink sauce was divine. For afters, we split the aforementioned martini and a piece of key lime pie, appropriately tangy with homemade whipped cream. The have valet, but I parked at the Beverly Connection garage nearby.

    Nestled in the heart of Beverly Hills is a charming restaurant with a white country picket fence and roses everywhere. It is almost as though you're stepping into a fairytale fantasy land. Every detail from the valet to the steps that take you into this fine dining experience is captivating and breathtaking. The service is five star, friendly smiles, and laughter amongst the staff is warm and refreshing. It makes you feel like you're at home. The food is amazing. It was full of flavor and cooked to perfection. My entire table was so satisfied and we were saying that we haven't had a meal like this in a long time. The desserts were on another level, decadent and flavorful. I had the double Ivy gimlet with a sugar rim, and it was delicious. The Ivy restaurant at 113 North Robertson gets my five star elite Yelp review and my personal recommendation as one of the most overall best experience experiences in Los Angeles.

    Lived in LA for a while. Not long enough to say I'm a native but long enough that I should have visited a lot of iconic restaurants like this one - The Ivy. Well, I finally did and I have to say, I had a good time. I was worried about the parking but found a parking garage. It's located less than one block south of the restaurant. I don't remember how much but it was clean, manned (booth attendant) and was less than 150 yards from the restaurant. Didn't have to do laps looking for street parking (metered) or hand my ride over to Valet. Service was great. Hostess was friendly and nice - nice enough to seat me about 20 minutes early for my reservation. No bar - I was given a choice of where to sit and I went with her recommendation to sit outdoors. The server was great as well. Took care of business, answering questions, and making sure my friend and I were well taken care of. I had steak. What else would i have? And I love it when it's prepared like I ask - and if you know me, it's gonna be rare! See pics. Chose mashed potatoes to go with my steak along with a Caesar salad and of course dessert to close everything out. It was a nice evening out on a school night. I ate too much but that usually happens when the food is good and you're having a great time.

    Red velvet cake

    The taste of the food does not justify the cost. The food is too expensive. I was very disappointed with the quality and quantity of the food. The decoration of the restaurant is nice and pretty. The service was average. I ordered crab cakes, seafood pasta, rack of lamb, red velvet cake, and a chocolate cookie.

    Came back again had the lobster fettuccine it was so delicious and enough to share! Our server Brandon was so awesome and attentive. We also had a raspberry coconut cake you must try!!! I'll be back again next week for my birthday !

    Amount of chips provided was a joke (photo doesn't really show but the amount of guacamole was a decent portion)
    Shannon N.

    This is a review from a recent dineLA experience. I'm surprised I never reviewed The Ivy; I came here years ago and although I thought it was good enough, I obviously never returned. Seeing they were participating in restaurant week for the summer, I figured this would be a decent time to revisit. As I settled in, I notice two forks; one had a distinctive red hair tangled in its tines. I'm not a redhead. I let one of the many busboys around know, and he simply looked at it, pulled the hair away, while leaving the fork, not saying a word. I might have laughed at how absurd this was, from The Ivy of all places. Needless to say when he went to clear the other place setting from the table, I grabbed one of those forks, having him take away the one that had hair in it that with common sense you think he should have had removed, but didn't. Took about 4 minutes to receive a menu (none were for dineLA) so I let the actual waiter know when he came by to introduce himself. A raisin scone with butter and jam arrives before the first course, so it appears as though this was forgotten. When the chips and guacamole arrived less than a couple minutes later, this presentation was a joke. You could count how many chips there were on this large plate. What was odd is that the guacamole portion was actually fairly decent, which ended up being wasted. However the entree for the chicken had two pieces of meat (when I expected one) but the mashed potatoes and corn could have been slightly more generous. The mango sauce for the entree was okay, but not really needed since the food was so flavorful. Thank goodness the three cookies can't be messed with, although I forgot to ask if they had the ones without nuts, but I'll still eat them. Their lunch cost is $65, where a lot of lunch deals cap out at $35 or so but this is The Ivy, so consider this a splurge. In some ways, it is worth it if it's your debut visit here since they offer a lot of their popular items, including the grilled vegetable salad. Seeing this was their first time doing this promotion, I'm grateful they participated, but they could use some work. Suggestions if they want to do dineLA in the future: I understand portions can be smaller for this as I've eaten at many other places over the years for this, but they need to get it right where its actually balanced. More chips for the guacamole, and maybe measure the sides better for the entree. Food WAS decent; even the 10 chips or so I had were fresh and crisp. Service started off pretty poor as I mentioned, but a couple of the guys were fine, including the waiter and a guy with dark-rimmed glasses who was working a couple other tables in the dining room. The Ivy is most likely not a place for me, especially since I stick out as I prefer sitting inside over out since I'm not an outdoors kind of person. Still a heavy area for tourists as I overheard them coming in demanding the patio seating, or with that request, they could have been the regulars for all I know. Willing to try Ivy at the Shore for contrast-

    Always a favorite. Been here many years ago and remember their infamous crab cake. Was strolling by after an afternoon shopping spree and couldn't resist sitting down for a bit to enjoy a bite to eat. So we had a second brunch hahahah 1. Smoked salmon and crème fraiche. Perfectly smoked rich salmon on top of crème fraiche on thin crust. Superb! Must try 2. Peaches and burrata: Fantastic! Fresh, sweet, and juicy peaches mixed with arugula and cherry tomatoes, and crowned with a big burrata on top and drizzled with balsamic and olive oil. Sooooo phenomenal. My new favorite guess 3. Also had a cappuccino which was ok but nothing special. My friend had a gimlet which was actually delicious. A lime spritzer. Always a pleasure to dine here. Haven't tried the pasta so looking forward to another shopping spree and second brunch Sunday at the Ivy again.

    Animo A.

    The service and ambience was definitely great specially for a Sunday morning. Food wasn't though. It was mid for the price. My mom enjoyed her steak. I didn't really like the eggs benedict. The cup of berries was $18 on top of the $30 pancake. I think that's too much. Coffee was good tho. Great location if you don't care much for the food or price.

    Catelin D.

    It's cute in here. The service is fast. Food is cool. Nothing spectacular to see here per se, but the service is great and the atmosphere is very cozy. The diners seated on either side of you are very close, heads up. I got the lobster pasta, which was tender and the pasta was fresh. A pinch of salt helped it along for sure. The cocktails are as strong as expected at an upscale establishment. No complaints there. I visited on account of the TMZ tour I went on with my out of town guest pointing it out. I can't say the goss about this place is emphatically true, but alas

    The Ivy is one of those classic LA spots that actually lives up to the hype -- and then some. We reserved a table on the patio (aka the floral fairy garden of my brunch dreams) and were treated to the kind of people-watching and sunshine that makes you forget your emails exist. We ordered: * The omelette -- fluffy, cheesy, perfection. Like if comfort food had a Hollywood glow-up. * The vegetable salad -- shockingly flavorful for something so virtuous. Crisp, fresh, and beautifully dressed. 100000% would order again * The coconut cake -- oh my God. Moist, cloud-like layers with just the right amount of sweetness. Honestly, I'd come back just for this. Service was warm without being fussy, and every bite felt like a little moment. If you're looking for that quintessential LA brunch that actually tastes as good as it looks? This is it.

    I have booked this place for my girlfriend and I for Feb 14th evening. My question is, is this a place where she can wear dress or is it more casual?

    Definitely a dress

    Always annoying when restaurants are so precious they don't post prices. What's an average for lunch and dinner, excluding wine? Does lunch average $100 per person? Is dinner $200 per person? Or does that basically cover the tip? Much appreciated.

    I think it's pricey! You're paying for atmosphere and great service at the ivy. Consistent high quality keep us going back once a month! Supply and demand. They're always busy and people pay what they ask- over and over.....so....good for them!… Read more

    Are pets allowed in patio?

    It might depend on who is bringing the lovely animal. I've seen some celebrities with dogs on the porch before. But if your pet smokes- celebrity or not it is unwelcome.

    I want to know the prices? Price of pecan square?

    not overly expensive. I believe desserts were 12 and main dishes 24-35 range
