    Lovely food & service. I was there on 20 November. We left cash on the table for a tip then realised we had already been charged 13 1:2% already on the bill. Today I was there again and I asked to take the optional charge off as I was leaving a cash tip again and she had to get permission to take it off the bill. Had to stand & wait a few minutes as I had gone up to the till. I think diners should be made aware of the extra 13 1/2% not read the small print at the end of the menu. I don’t live locally coming from Llanelli so it was a special treat. Apart from that everything was very nice

    Disappointed in the table we had, there was a table only inches away and and when sat down my chair was actually touching the other table, the dishes we chose contained very little meat and prawns, we felt e Embarrassed as we had taken our australian cousins there and had praised the restaurant after a previous visit, very disappointed but did not say anything at time as I did not want our guests to see how we were.

    The ambience was beautiful. However it seemed we were judged basis how we were dressed and not for the fact that my husband and I were extremely warm with the staff. It should be ideally the other way around. Our serves Evie and Scott were nice. However the rest of the staff seemed cold. The food, the ambience could be as good but if you are not treated well, there’s no charm to a classy place like Ivy. Ultimately they are in the business of customer service.

    What an experience, travelled over to Cardiff from Bristol just for this. First time for my wife and I and we were not disappointed. The food and atmosphere etc were amazing. The only thing that let it down was we seemed to be rushed. We savored our "small plates" meal and as soon as we finished them, our main courses were delivered even before our table had been cleared of our "small plates". I know this was a small thing, but it did detract a bit from our experience, hence not giving a full 5 star review across the board.

    Thank you Rob for such lovely feedback. We look forward seeing you and your wife again soon.
