Reviews for Ivy Ristorante in London, ON
This is the best Italian food in all of London. The staff and service were impeccable. The wine list was curated to perfection.... You won’t find a bad wine on this list so order ANY bottle with confidence and impress. Bring your fussiest VEGANS and theirmeat eating parents to dine without an eye roll from either. Try the specials. Save ordering off the menu for a special thatdoesn’t appeal (even a little) to you - Just do it. This chef is amazing. You won’t be let down with ANYTHING you order. Read more
I had hosted my bridal shower event with IVY and it was wonderful! The team is very accommodating and their service exceptional.... Pete and Suzy especially made planning the event very easy. Everything from the curated signature drink to the food plus dessertwas tasty. Everyone loved it! A big thank you to the team for the great service and helping create a memorable experience! Iwould definitely host future events here again! Read more
Wow. Amazing service, very attentive to customer needs. Our waiter was Tom and he was fabulous. You can tell he knows the menu... quite well as he could tell based on the first word, exactly what you wanted to order. The kitchen and serving staff areincredibly efficient. Probably some of the fastest service I have ever had. Overall vibe of the restaurant was very pleasant,upper class-like. Honestly, reminded me of Black Trumpet and I think this restaurant is a great replacement (with ample parkingspots and patio options)! The chef is a vegan so he caters to a variety of dietary needs: vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, dairyfree, etc. VERY accommodating. Some special extras they provided during my visit: complimentary Prosecco, and warm cookies atthe end of the meal. I got a cocktail as well: the white peach Cosmo. It was refreshing, not too sugary sweet and not too muchalcohol. Quite the balance I would say. Very nice to go with the antipasto platter which is quite rich (the cheeses). Thebruschetta was AMAZING. Best ones I've had around London Italian restaurants. The antipasto platter was filled with high qualitycheeses and meats - was very pleased. I only wish we got more bruschetta bread to go with the dishes!! The cheeses were verycreamy and rich. The paparadelle alla chianti ragusa, was piping hot from the kitchen, the meat was so tender and soft from theslow braising. It was also not too salty (which I find most restaurants to be quite generous with...maybe too generous). Thetiramisu and coconut cannolis, oh boy wonderful Italian desserts. The plating was lovely. I did think the tiramisu was a wee bitdry; and the coconut cream in the cannolis felt like it could've had more sugar to it (but that's my personalpreference). Definitely one to visit again (perhaps when their fall menu change comes in on Oct 10). Read more
Hands down the best vegan menu in London, on par with the best vegan Italian restaurants in Toronto. Every bite of every course... was incredible (especially the vegan brie!). I was so pleased to hear that they source some of their products from Main VeganDeli in Glencoe. The service was also outstanding. Read more
The Ivy Ristorante, this is a must for anyone that loves that Quaint and friendly place. The rich and very tastefully decor... moves your eye around the whole structure. The outdoor dinning area is fresh and quiet, yet you can hear the laughs and see thesmiles of the guests, and even the staff. The indoor dinning has you, inside a beautiful house that has exposed brick, walls ofexcellent wines, and food that is out of this world. Every bite, your mouth can taste the the time and pride that the chefs tookto make each meal perfect. The staff, they are all friendly, and very personable. If you love to have great food, then this isabsolutely a place to come for dinner and return for ever. Read more
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Every staff member we encountered were beyond pleasant, we loved the conversations... with all of them. Our waitress was extremely knowledgeable of the menu and was able to accommodate a dietary restriction withease. The food was delicious. It exceeded our expectations in every aspect. We can’t wait to come back. Read more
Absolutely an amazing experience! Went for my husband’s birthday and will definately return. We showed up about 30 minutes... early for our reservation but they said no problem and let us sit down immediately at our table. We had the charcuterie board tostart, highly recommend it! Then we had several drinks, the rosé being one of my favourites. Unfortunately two of our drinkswere a bit strong so we didn’t finish them, the waitress took notice and comped them from our bill since we hadn’t drankthem! Very nice of her and unexpected. For the main course my husband had the carbonara and I had the tortellini and they wereboth so, so good. I’m craving it now even! For dessert they brought out a delicious tiramisu cake! Overall it was a greatexperience. Our waitress was so nice and very attentive. She had such a positive and calming vibe she really made us feelcomfortable. The vibe in the restaurant was great too, clean, nice decor very good. 10/10. Read more
