I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about the team at Ivory House. They went above and…read morebeyond in every possible way to help make our daughter's wedding day absolutely seamless. From the moment they arrived, they were willing to help with anything and everything. They steamed dresses, assisted the bride, grandmother of the bride, mother of the bride, and all of the bridesmaids, helped with bustling, and even went out to purchase additional food and drinks when we realized we needed more. They also acted as a liaison with the on-site wedding coordinator, which was incredibly helpful and allowed all of us to simply enjoy the day. What impressed me most was that it didn't matter whether something was technically part of their original role. If we needed something, they handled it, always with a positive attitude and without hesitation. Every request, big or small, was taken care of. Having the Ivory House team there gave us such peace of mind on an incredibly important day. They anticipated needs, solved problems, and took care of our entire group from beginning to end. I would highly recommend them to any bride and family. They were invaluable!

I've had Ivory House on our bucket list for a while. I was super excited to try it with my…read moregirlfriend for my birthday... Here is what they did well: - great bread, truly amazing as house made - gelato was fantastic - pretty inside/decor - sides were pretty good Here is where it went south: - our serve was very casual and almost seemed put off by us. Not attentive, not overly welcoming or friendly - my girlfriend stated it was my birthday, an our waitress saw me with a birthday gift and no acknowledgement no asking oh is it your birthday? Meanwhile 2 other tables received a happy birthday, with a candle and dessert - when going to a "steakhouse" is that you go there expect to have an amazing steak. Not the case, my "medium" steak was cooked half medium half rare. For a filet it was also very fatty. when I asked the server (probably 25 minutes after our food was served) she said it didn't look medium and offers to put it back on. no apology Overall it felt very underwhelming and when you pay $70 for a steak you expect it to be right. On top of that celebrating a special occasion, for a $200 meal for 2 people, it Was a bland experience. We've heard amazing reviews so hopefully your experience will be different than ours! We said we'd give it another shot but not going with steak.

This cafe is wonderful in so many ways! First of all, they offer gluten-free bread, plus fresh…read moregluten-free pastries that are kept in a separate container from the regular pastries. I went around 2 p.m., though, and they were almost completely sold out of the gluten-free pastries, so if you want to snag one, definitely go early! They have tons of sandwich options, and a great selection of teas and coffee drinks. I got an iced chai latte with almond milk, and it was light and good. There's also plenty of seating inside, along with some local art, which makes it a nice place to hang out. The only downside is that you'll need to find street parking which is a little difficult at this location, so prepare mentally. Overall, a really lovely cafe with great gluten-free options!

I dare you not to close your eyes and to eat it slowly. Now you will be thanking me for at least cutting it in half. You're welcome! Enjoy!

There was a wide variety of games, and almost all of them worked which has not been my experience at similar venues in the past. The space was clean, the employees friendly and helpful. There was a variety of games too, which was nice -- pinball, classic arcade games, air hockey, and etc. I'd be happy to go back for an event or just for an evening out.

Don't eat here. Avoid. This was unfortunately not a great…read moredining experience.we came in to town to visit with my great aunt and thought we would have a good meal together. It didn't really work out that way. The food was disappointing overall and some of it had a genuinely strange taste. One of us ordered boneless chicken wings, which were smothered in what was the worst bbq sauce we've ever tasted. We also ordered biscuits and gravy. The gravy had sausage in it but the flavor was unpleasant and just didn't taste right. Honestly though the service was probably the biggest issue. It was nearly nonexistent and when we did interact with a couple of servers/host they came across as pretentious and dismissive. At one point one of them mocked us to coworkers apparently not realizing we could hear them. Unfortunately for them we absolutely could. What made it even more noticeable was that we watched other tables with different servers being checked on and attended to throughout their meals while we were essentially left alone. We didn't complain or make a scene we just wanted to finish and leave. Even after everyone at our table had finished, we sat waiting another 15-20 minutes just to get our ticket. By that point, we were more than ready to go. Our server's interactions felt especially strange. When we did manage to get his attention, he spoke extremely slowly and calmly in a way that felt almost deliberately dismissive, then disappeared again for long stretches. We were never checked on otherwise. Overall, between the food, the lack of service and the way we were treated, this was a really unpleasant experience. I wouldn't choose to dine here again. Two stars only bc there was one person that genuinely enjoyed their meal in our party.

Despite having such a large group, drinks were out fast and there was plenty of seating. 2 things stick out here: Decor and the Drinks. Both were impeccably done. The nature meets wood and brick aesthetic is so purposefully laid out and when the eye cruises across the landscape it's so satisfying!! We had a LOT of drinks, but the jade river, el toro rojo, and pacific muse were our favorites. The drinks are priced pretty well ($12-$14) and the service was very prompt, always cleaning up empty glasses and clearing space for more people to sit. I for SURE recommend this place as a spot to come and throw a couple rounds back. We stayed for hours and drank and talked our hearts out! Thank you for such a wonderful night. 5 stars.
