- SSatya1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoI had an incredible dining experience at The Ivy Seattle. The atmosphere was elegant yet welcoming, and the service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and timely. The Japanese A5 Wagyu nigiri was the absolute standout. It melted in my mouth with a buttery richness that was truly unforgettable. The lumpia was crispy and flavorful, and the truffle linguine had just the right balance—not too rich, making it easy to enjoy. When we first arrived, the restaurant was a bit cold, but the staff quickly accommodated us and ensured we were comfortable, which I really appreciated. Overall, a fantastic experience with exceptional food and service. I’ll definitely be coming back!More infoThe Ivy - SeattlePrice: Expensive• Fusion / Eclectic• Ballard•4
