Having wanted to dine at The Ivy since I was 20 and now late 50's it was one of my favourite experiences in London with my children. It did not disappoint. The service was superb, the waiter quickly realised my son has special needs and reacted accordingly, without judgement or prejudice, which was a refreshing change from other London venues we have been to. The food was the best I have had in years. Thank you!
