Fantastic lunch at the Ivy Asia today. Amazing fit out, this restaurant really has the wow factor! The food and service certainly didn’t disappoint with a wide choice alongside delicious and innovative cocktails.
We were also pleasantly surprised when the bill arrived. We combined a set menu with a few small plates which included the prawn tempura, prawn toast and sushi. The chicken satay was a real highlight. Great vegetarian options as well and all served quickly and efficiently as you’d expect from the Ivy group.
I would highly recommend a visit and very much looking forward to my next trip.

We were politely greeted when entering and shown to our table by our waiter. He was really attentive and helpful with explaining the dishes to us. I have a lot of respect for him for making an effort with my 2 year old by just making him laugh and making him feel comfortable (I couldn't get his name and this is why). One thing we weren't impressed with was when his senior in a black suit brushed him away to clear up tables and decided to take our second order. I did mention that I'd prefer our waiter to take it, but he didn't listen and carried on.
The food and cocktails were absolutely phenomenal. The presentation of the dishes was great, especially the gochujang chicken and lettuce wraps. We loved the atmosphere and the restaurant is decorated so beautifully. The funniest thing was seeing a huge sumo wrestler while walking downstairs to the toilet and then seeing a samurai warrior in the gents toilets doing his business in the urinal.
Our overall experience was amazing and I can't wait to go back. I'd definitely recommend it to everyone.
Very imaginative decor, beautiful food and attentive service. We came for a double birthday lunch. We had the £65 set menu which was plentiful - sushi, cod, tempura prawns, beef, salad - we felt very full before the desert arrived. Not the cheapest but very enjoyable with the odd surprise! Enjoy 😁
We had a really amazing visit with friends on a Saturday evening. The level of service from all of the staff was great but Elias and Ntenis was very special. Their dish recommendations and explanation of the best way to enjoy the menu was very welcome and spot on. The atmosphere is very vibrant and the DJ was excellent. The red dragon pudding was sheer theatre! I would recommend this venue if you are looking for a really special occasion and are able to give yourself a real treat.
Really cool atmosphere, fast service and friendly staff.
The fish was fresh and well-prepared.
The cocktails were amazing.
The overall atmosphere was amazed by the house music provided by the local dj.

Absolutely loved Ivy Asia... The food and the service was amazing! I only gave 4 stars as, the doughnuts we had were missing most of their filling and really you should get a whole spring roll each, rather than a half, with the afternoon tea.
Also, the staff very kindly brought my daughter some happy birthday mochi but this was after we had paid and were about to leave. I had left a note request when booking and this seemed to be a last min thing as they had forgotten.
Totally recommend it for a try, the afternoon tea is a good price and you do get a great selection.
I had the dark chocolate red tea, which was lovely and Ivy had the jasmine white tea. Both had very subtle flavours, as did the food, but in a light way.
The décor is just phenomenal... Honestly, even the bathrooms!
The floor looks like you're walking on slices of jade and the napkin rings look like jewel encrusted peacock flowers.
Definitely one to add to the bucket list!
The afternoon tea comes with dry ice in the top, so it smokes 💕
We went to the Ivy Asia for my birthday and it was incredible- the food is to die for! I ordered the popcorn shrimp 3 times because it is THAT good, the gochujang chicken is also amazing, and their sushi rolls are second to none. The service was amazing all night, Sara was our waitress and she was lovely and attentive, and the service was fast. Would recommend!!
Received a voucher as a wedding gift and had a brilliant night here. One of the best atmospheres we have experienced in London. We both had the experience menu which we thought was great value for money. Service was great, up to the point of clearing our mains, then it took an hour for our desserts to be served. Think there must have been some sort of mix up. Food marked one down due to ordering the fillet steak rare and it came out well done. Still absolutely loved our night there and will be back! Oh, and we were obsessed with the spicy edamame… delicious!!
For someone who doesn't eat sushi, this place has a great selection of food. The chicken and noodles were delicious. The best thing was the dessert, I had the cheesecake, and it was so creamy and beautiful. Cocktails were delicious, too. It's one of my favourite places to eat.
We had a lovely dinner at this Ivy Asia. Definitely try the snow crab calefornia rolls, pork dumplings, fried chicken wraps, the half duck and the black cod. The music was quite loud to properly speak to each other while enjoying the delicious food.
Came with friends to The Ivy Asia arriving in style with a fancy Tesla. We had lots of small plates and the half aromatic duck. Loved the food and the venue. The service did feel a little rushed and some of the cocktails aren't great value for money. We did get a lot of drinks. Overall however a great experience.
The Ivy Asia has long been on my bucket list. I wanted to try St. Paul's first, but the Chelsea restaurant had the available time slot. Needless to say, I enjoyed my first experience.
It was a solo trip this long weekend (yesterday was Coronation Day), but the staff were very professional, welcoming. From the entrance to seating at the counter, I quite liked watching the chefs prepare the sushi.
My kudos to Brian whose recommendations were spot on. Thank you so much!
Hopefully, my second time will be at St. Paul's 😉
The place is gorgeous and the sushi is simply amazing! We tried the coconut and peach cocktail which was incredibly refreshing. They serve classic maki creations but the spicy tuna makis are a must….AND don’t miss out on the dessert, we tried the Samurai and it did not disappoint!
Really really nice highly recommend both on food quality and price! Perfect as a wow factor for anyone who’s never been!
We went to get a relaxing lunch at this place on a weekend afternoon. Food was tasty, the interiors were well decorated, seats were comfy, and the staff were friendly and on-task. But overall it didn't feel relaxing due to rapid interruptions to check up on our next order, clear plates and ask us to vacate the seats within a couple of minutes of paying the bill (we wanted to wait for our friend to use the washroom).
None of that takes away from the fact that this place offers good food with a great ambience in central London, but the whole meal felt very business-like. Maybe we just went in with a different expectation than this place provides. It would be a wonderful place for many others, but not the type of place I would generally go again.
