    The IV is a hidden gem right at 113 N Robertson Boulevard just south of West Hollywood in Beverly Hills. The experience from start to finish is absolutely a wonderful you pull up in valet. Take care of your car. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You come in through the picket fence to this amazing garden with roses and a great vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is delicious., no matter what you order you really can't go wrong. The servers are all wonderful. This is truly a VIP style reception. You don't often get a restaurant.. Matt was our server today, he was attentive. He helped us with decisions on the menu. He was funny with a great personality. Matt, our server really added the whole experience.. if you're looking for great atmosphere and good food definitely try out the Ivy at 113 N. Robertson Blvd.. the Ivy gets my five star Yelp review and my Personal recommendation! Bon appétit!

    We chose The Ivy for brunch with our friends on our wedding day, right after our courthouse ceremony, and we could not have chosen a better place. The staff were extremely nice and professional, on top of everything. Our waiter Brandon was impressive in how attentive and professional he was. He heard everything we needed and made a point to help us with all of it. We never had to ask for the same thing twice, they never left us with an empty cup, congratulated us on our wedding, and did an amazing job with our cake, cutting and serving it for us. The food was incredible. Our filets were outstanding, and everyone left satisfied. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Ivy has this very whimsical vibe, decorated with the most stunning fresh roses. We took amazing pictures there![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't even call it pricey. You truly get what you pay for, and we got the most incredible experience. Definitely our favorite place in LA so far. Can't wait to go back!

    Gotta love a retro menu

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Absolutely stunning venue with food to match.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The restaurant was full, but the waitstaff were completely relaxed. No pressure to "turn tables" and rush people through. [[HIGHLIGHT]]One has the feeling of dining in a lovely garden with all the time in the world.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To start, we were presented with complimentary scones, light, perfect texture. still warm, along with cream and jam. These could have been served at a high tea in England. Delish. The grilled vegetable salad was incredible. Each component was cooked perfectly and harmonized beautifully. I had the salmon and crème fraiche tart. Perfect balance of flavors. My companion had a piece of grilled salmon - best we've had in ages. The Ivy recognized my birthday and brought out a piece of red velvet cake and vanilla ice cream. This isn't typically my favorite cake, but it was well executed. The brown butter cookies we ordered paired well with espresso. Exquisite meal which will be long remembered.

    The Ivy is one of Los Angeles most iconic restaurants. I come here every so often and this time I went right after hiking Runyon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I feel like the restaurant needs a revamp.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I remember pre covid they gave a complimentary glass of champagne. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I feel like this time there was no vibe but there is always people watching here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My breakfast burrito for the price was whatever. The food is extremely overpriced and the service was so so. It's an iconic la restaurant known to be expensive and many celebrities used to frequent. I usually get the fish and chips or pizza. This time I got the breakfast burrito and corn ravioli and it was a mistake. I felt like it was nothing special and we just paying for the fact it's a iconic restaurant and its location. Cool fact: LeBron James has been seen here after he moved to LA to play with the Lakers!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cute, quaint, historic setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would recommend sitting outside if possible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We almost got sat at this table in the corner inside where one of people can't even see anything aside from an Eiffel Tower statue.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Luckily we were able to ask if we could wait 15 more minutes from an outside table. The iced coffee was great, the Cesar salad appetizer was also very good and fresh, the lobster pasta was also pretty good with fresh lobster, and the lobster benefits were also good with the potatoes. The included scones are also amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]For those who frequent the restroom, it was very nice even with poperie, but there are only 2 bathrooms and always a line.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love it, definitely pricey but all fresh and great ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Nice place for relaxing dinner outside. We come here for last 30 years periodically.

    This is one of my partner's bucket list restaurants and we finally got to check it out in February 2026. It's exactly as we expected, with a mix of tourists and Beverly Hills area folks. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pretty floral/garden themed decor with some "rustic" furniture here and there make it seem less pretentious although the pricing and service definitely are in the "upscale" tier.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was OK for me. My partner ordered the carne asada and I ordered chicken. Neither dish made us think we need to come back for more. The service was wonderful. The cocktails were on the weak side for the price, but I understand where we are here. We may go back on our next trip to LA but there are so many other great choices. Street parking was easy to find, but we did go at 1:30pm on a Tuesday.

    Lobster tacos
    Andrew S.

    Definitely the place to be. Food was unique and delicious but price tag probably should have included a star sighting as well :) enjoyed the lobster tacos and the lobster scramble looked delicious. Overall, a must try experience.

    The food changed completely. It's not the same. Came here today and I remember the food used to be good.. not sure what happened for it to be different. It was also $60 for Huevos Rancheros. 1 plate btw. I will never be coming back. It's ridiculously pricy now for only 3 tortillas.. actually unbelievable at the quality and price now. Absolute downgrade unfortunately.

    Lived in LA for a while. Not long enough to say I'm a native but long enough that I should have visited a lot of iconic restaurants like this one - The Ivy. Well, I finally did and I have to say, I had a good time. I was worried about the parking but found a parking garage. It's located less than one block south of the restaurant. I don't remember how much but it was clean, manned (booth attendant) and was less than 150 yards from the restaurant. Didn't have to do laps looking for street parking (metered) or hand my ride over to Valet. Service was great. Hostess was friendly and nice - nice enough to seat me about 20 minutes early for my reservation. No bar - I was given a choice of where to sit and I went with her recommendation to sit outdoors. The server was great as well. Took care of business, answering questions, and making sure my friend and I were well taken care of. I had steak. What else would i have? And I love it when it's prepared like I ask - and if you know me, it's gonna be rare! See pics. Chose mashed potatoes to go with my steak along with a Caesar salad and of course dessert to close everything out. It was a nice evening out on a school night. I ate too much but that usually happens when the food is good and you're having a great time.

    You've seen it in dozens of movies, so the Ivy is a must-try for every Angeleno, at least once. My first time there was to commemorate an occasion, and it was the perfect place for a special outing. The place is visually interesting and unique - multicoloured roses on every table, primary-hued vintage-bulb Christmas lights, charmingly printed pottery dishes, and farmhouse décor. Service is impeccable, efficient and aware of the possibility of high-profile clientele. It's an odd mix of upscale and homespun. The cocktails were incredible - fresh-tasting and delicious. We tried the LA G&T and the mango pineapple margarita. We also enjoyed a strong espresso martini with dessert. With dinner, you'll receive a complimentary small, dense bread round with butter. The rib plate was nice, juicy meat with a flavourful sauce, slaw, crispy french fries. The lobster ravioli in pink sauce was divine. For afters, we split the aforementioned martini and a piece of key lime pie, appropriately tangy with homemade whipped cream. The have valet, but I parked at the Beverly Connection garage nearby.

    If you like Red Velvet, I recommend trying this one, for me, it's the best in Los Angeles

    Amount of chips provided was a joke (photo doesn't really show but the amount of guacamole was a decent portion)
    Shannon N.

    This is a review from a recent dineLA experience. I'm surprised I never reviewed The Ivy; I came here years ago and although I thought it was good enough, I obviously never returned. Seeing they were participating in restaurant week for the summer, I figured this would be a decent time to revisit. As I settled in, I notice two forks; one had a distinctive red hair tangled in its tines. I'm not a redhead. I let one of the many busboys around know, and he simply looked at it, pulled the hair away, while leaving the fork, not saying a word. I might have laughed at how absurd this was, from The Ivy of all places. Needless to say when he went to clear the other place setting from the table, I grabbed one of those forks, having him take away the one that had hair in it that with common sense you think he should have had removed, but didn't. Took about 4 minutes to receive a menu (none were for dineLA) so I let the actual waiter know when he came by to introduce himself. A raisin scone with butter and jam arrives before the first course, so it appears as though this was forgotten. When the chips and guacamole arrived less than a couple minutes later, this presentation was a joke. You could count how many chips there were on this large plate. What was odd is that the guacamole portion was actually fairly decent, which ended up being wasted. However the entree for the chicken had two pieces of meat (when I expected one) but the mashed potatoes and corn could have been slightly more generous. The mango sauce for the entree was okay, but not really needed since the food was so flavorful. Thank goodness the three cookies can't be messed with, although I forgot to ask if they had the ones without nuts, but I'll still eat them. Their lunch cost is $65, where a lot of lunch deals cap out at $35 or so but this is The Ivy, so consider this a splurge. In some ways, it is worth it if it's your debut visit here since they offer a lot of their popular items, including the grilled vegetable salad. Seeing this was their first time doing this promotion, I'm grateful they participated, but they could use some work. Suggestions if they want to do dineLA in the future: I understand portions can be smaller for this as I've eaten at many other places over the years for this, but they need to get it right where its actually balanced. More chips for the guacamole, and maybe measure the sides better for the entree. Food WAS decent; even the 10 chips or so I had were fresh and crisp. Service started off pretty poor as I mentioned, but a couple of the guys were fine, including the waiter and a guy with dark-rimmed glasses who was working a couple other tables in the dining room. The Ivy is most likely not a place for me, especially since I stick out as I prefer sitting inside over out since I'm not an outdoors kind of person. Still a heavy area for tourists as I overheard them coming in demanding the patio seating, or with that request, they could have been the regulars for all I know. Willing to try Ivy at the Shore for contrast-

    Ask the Community - The Ivy

    Planning on coming Saturday should I make a reservation ? Does it get that busy?

    You need reservations.

    Would it be ok to bring a baby, 10 months old and do they have high chairs?

    If the baby is quiet ok. If the baby is loud - no. They probably will ask you to leave Doubt they… 

    Do they require proof of vaccination?

    No they do not, at least on February 7th 2022, they were not asking

    Is there any vegan options?

    I have booked this place for my girlfriend and I for Feb 14th evening. My question is, is this a place where she can wear dress or is it more casual?

    Definitely a dress

    Always annoying when restaurants are so precious they don't post prices. What's an average for lunch and dinner, excluding wine? Does lunch average $100 per person? Is dinner $200 per person? Or does that basically cover the tip? Much appreciated.

    I think it's pricey! You're paying for atmosphere and great service at the ivy. Consistent high quality keep us going back once a month! Supply and demand. They're always busy and people pay what they ask- over and over.....so....good for them!… 

    Are pets allowed in patio?

    It might depend on who is bringing the lovely animal. I've seen some celebrities with dogs on the porch before. But if your pet smokes- celebrity or not it is unwelcome.

    I want to know the prices? Price of pecan square?

    not overly expensive. I believe desserts were 12 and main dishes 24-35 range

We stopped by on a Monday around 8pm and it was surprisingly quiet at first, but before long people started walking in for Trivia Night and the atmosphere became much livelier. OR Bar has a really stylish, welcoming vibe. The black and gold decor, artwork, and chandeliers give it an upscale feel. I also like that it's more than just a nighttime spot. During the day, people come in to work, enjoy coffee, and just hang out, which gives it a nice neighborhood vibe. I ordered an Angry Orchard Cider and my friend ordered one of their Espress-OR Martinis. It looked great but it was strong! If you are an espresso martini fan who likes this style of drink, you will probably enjoy it. There are metered spaces behind the bar and there is also residential street parking nearby if you pay attention to the posted signs. Overall, this was a fun find and I can definitely see why it has become a neighborhood favorite. I would come back to try more of the cocktails and experience another Trivia Night.

The Rigatoni Vodka (we added a meatball) was equally impressive. The vodka sauce was creamy without being overly heavy, and the meatball was tender, well seasoned, and packed with flavor. One thing to know before you go: parking can be a nightmare. There is valet in front, or you can opt for parking in the surrounding neighborhood. You're better off grabbing a rideshare if you can. It makes the experience much easier, especially if you plan on enjoying a few drinks. Between the beautiful ambiance, generous portions, and delicious food, this is an easy recommendation. We'll definitely be back.
