   The vibe and decorations in Ivy asia are so beautiful and very classy. The place was lovely. Service was good. The view was out of this world. Looking at St Pauls Cathedral.I would pay to go sit there as its so beautiful. But the food was a huge let down. We ordered salt and pepper tofu and it was so peppery, I could hardly taste anything else except pepper. Also ordered Salmon teriaki, the steak was so small and very flat, and was too raw( not medium cooking) .We couldnt eat it actually. We also ordered the chick pea curry and that was actuall tasty and good and creamy , so no complaints here. Lastly we ordered shrimp tempura and it was very oily and was not rich in flavour.Very bland. I wouldnt go again really as the food really needs a step up to go with the amazing vibe of the place.

   The duck pancakes were very nice and there is a fantastic view of St Pauls Cathedral. Have been here twice and the service is inconsistent; our first server was attentive and fantastic; on our second visit everything seemed to go a little bit wrong.

   The food was absolutely delicious. We had the Ivy Asia Experience menu and the selection was great. It was a great variety of foods. The stand outs for me were the beef tartare, salmon nigiri and miso cod which was the nicest piece of fish I’ve ever had. The dessert was also very nice, the red dragon. The service was great. I was celebrating so received some complementary mochi which was a nice touch. Our server was Gian and he was friendly and attentive. Thanks for a great experience.

   We went to the Ivy Asia in St. Paul's as we've been to the branch in Chelsea and really enjoyed it. I don't think the St. Paul's branch was as good as the service did not meet expectations, the waiter taking our order have any enthusiasm and we didn't feel that welcomed when asking to take a photo of us. It was a birthday celebration and I would've wanted to have a special moment with my family. When arriving I also didn't get provided the happy hour menu, I had to request for it which felt unusual...

   We had the set menu which was lovely. Great selection of food just enough for 2 people. Loved the black cod . All the different flavors of food were great . Would definitely recommend.
