Combrook​のベストイギリス料理（コンテンポラリー）レストラン

A good friend travelled many miles to meet me. I chose the Ivy as I have been going there ever since it opened in Birmingham and eat in the many Ivy restaurants in London and elsewhere. I trust the menu and the wine list. Today the only things that went wrong were a polite request for the table I usually get or the second best table ( in my opinion). Yet having booked several weeks ago both were taken. When were they booked? Secondly the double espresso arrived cold. It was unlike the Ivy to do that. I have known all the previous managers but not the present one. I must introduce myself at my next visit.

Delicious food and attentive but not badgering or pushy. Took our coats on entry and made us feel warm and welcome. Also accommodating to our specific requests for tables. There is only a single vegetarian option (no vegan) but the one that was on offer was fantastic. Perhaps another option would be appreciated though!

Amazing 5⭐️service indeed. I was served by a young lady whom was so patience as I waited for my friend, (12h00)She kept on reassuring me that it’s okay to wait and I shouldn’t worry. (2 black ladies) She also made a comment that she didn’t know it was so relevant to me at the time. I lost my brother in December 2024, another one in 2023 totalling my lost siblings to 5! So, she said to me, ‘just relax and spend this time to enjoy yourself’ This was so profound as I had not gotten those simple words that yet meant so much to me. The Asian Floor manager was very attentive also. Thank you The Ivy Team.

We decided to have the 5 course tasting menu as we are older and felt daunted by the idea of 10 courses. This was an excellent decision. With all the delicious snacks and nibbles in the bar before and after the main meal, 5 courses were ample for us. We’ve never had such delicious food. Every mouthful was a delight, in taste and texture. It was such a great experience, which we will never forget. The service was also excellent, staff being friendly and attentive throughout, arriving promptly and explaining every dish. We also had the wine pairing and can highly recommend that - fabulous wines and again excellent descriptions of each. Everything was perfect.

Exceptional cooking with exquisite balance of flavours. Loved very morsel. Wines by glass I had were fantastic too. Not cheap, but very much worth it. Thanks.
