    All very nice apart from some items were missing from the menu - decided to go with the lamb linguine - to be fair it sounded a strange option and in reality it was! Iti turned out to be substitute spaghetti Bolognese with pulled lamb in it - can’t say I enjoyed it that much although the staff seem pleased with their new menu options…

    My 2nd time at The Ivy in Bournemouth Square! I went with a friend and we both had a brilliant experience. The food was excellent. I can highly recommend the sea bass. It is superb and cooked to perfection 👌🏽 Our waitress, Vida was attentive, helpful and friendly. I can honestly say that this is the best restaurant in Bournemouth and the surrounding areas. The decor is delightful and a feast for the eyes. It's a wonderful and welcoming place. From the receptionist to the manager, the service is impeccable.

    Great meal at Pho today. I had Pork Spring Rolls followed by Chicken Curry, and it was fantastic. Duane looked after us beautifully, as did Ivy. Restaurant was quiet, but still felt very relaxed and comfortable despite that. We will definitely be returning soon. Thank you.

    My girlfriend and I went in a date here last night and it was incredible, the drinks were amazing and the waiting and bar staff were all happy for a chat and really seemed to love what they do. If I was to say anything negative it was that the live music made it difficult to have a conversation with my girlfriend sat 2 feet away and as such we had to leave before the 2nd group started rather than stay for more drinks. Other than that, we were each given a glass of Prosecco for the occasion of our date which we really appreciated and we will definitely come back soon
