   Overall a great experience - The Ivy in Birmingham as in London is always busy, the service team are brilliant and the food is very good. We were a table of four and can highly recommend the duck rendang - a particular favourite. Minor criticism in that more bar seating would be useful (we were early for our reservation) but on the whole worth a visit for celebrations or just because. You do need to book though as you are unlikely to get a table otherwise.

   Good food and great table but unfortunately put for a special message request on the email that wasn't delivered which was really disappointing when I was trying to make a good impression in a lovely restaurant.!!!

   They tried to charge me for a drink I hadn't ordered. The food was cold and the service was slow.

   It was as ever a lovely venue, my wife’s choice was delivered without a sauce which is part of the menu choice so we had to ask. I asked for mustard and was told French or English the next server said only English. The biggest bug bare is we do love this place and try to collect the points and 5/5 visits since the app no points have been added. I still think it’s fab but they just need to execute better on the smaller things.
