    Love this restaurant! We have been coming here for years and have had many celebration meals as well as brunches and quiet dinners. The food is no nonsense and always cooked well. I had a halibut special that was perfectly cooked. Their coleslaw is exceptional. The waitstaff is attentive and very accommodating without being in your face. Happy New Year!

    Restaurants don't last in Santa Monica for decades without being incredible! The food, service, ambiance, and views of the Pacific Ocean are all perfect. I have been enjoying the Ivy at the Shore for lunch and dinner special events, business meetings, and personal dining for decades and will continue to do so.

    This was the most pleasant experience we’ve had at Ivy. It was super early because we’d come from a show so the noise level was not an issue. Wait staff was amazing. Everyone loved their food. All 7 of us. And desserts were great! Going at 4:30 is the way to go I guess!
