First time since being diagnosed that my husband could have Chinese food out. Amazing! They have to use tortillas instead of traditional pancakes with the duck but totally worth it. Great quality lots of choice. Extremely good understanding of cross contamination. Will definitely be back

The place is and will always be amazing!! Budget friendly food and the best cocktails. We went for dinner and genuinely had a great time!! The food is finger liking good, and the best part is they got a gluten-free menu and vegan menu catering to our needs. The cocktails were simply amazing xx. The waiting staff were great, too. A bit loud with the music, but apart from that, it's really good. Definitely recommend.

I have had mixed experiences. Half of the time I've had an incredible gluten free pizza, the other half it was thin and rock hard. If the experience was more consistent, the high price would be justified, but unfortunately it's a gamble every time I order

This was the first time I've been to the Ivy Asia and I think it's miles better than the normal Ivy where I've been a fair few times. The food is pricey but actually full of flavour and the decor is lovely. Staff are also lovely but had one slight issue where my Dad requested a gluten free beer and they gave him a normal beer, good job he checked it as he's coeliac. If he drank it, it could have made him seriously ill. They was very apologetic but offered nothing, I thought they might have at least knocked it off the £600 bill which was disappointing. Service charge is extortionate. Nice touch bringing a little cake out for my Nan's birthday but wouldn't rush back.

Been here a few times now and it is just fantastic! The food was amazing and would definitely go back just for that. The first time I went, one of the people in my party had a gluten and nut allergy and the waitress took it seriously, providing all of the necessary information making sure the food was safe for everyone. Not really a fan of the cocktails it’s quite a limited menu and so can we difficult to pick one if you are a bit fussy. Been here an evening when the band is playing and it is fantastic. Such good energy and you still get served at the bar quickly upstairs. Myself and a group of girls had an issue over the weekend with an inappropriate male. I raised my issue with the staff who then promptly resolved the issue and took it seriously, which was really reassuring. Will definitely go here again on a night out and would highly recommend it!

Lovely food, staff friendly and catered for coeliac. Disappointing though that my hubby and daughters boyfriend were told they couldn't come in with smart shorts on even though it was intensely hot. They were 5 mins from hotel so popped to put trousers on, once seated and enjoying food, the management let 4 gentleman in with shorts on, when we asked why if policy is no shorts they were allowed he said they had booked a table of nine basically more cash from then than our small table of 4, then noticed a table of 5 behind us and one young man also had shorts. We think that this was unfair and felt that we had adhered to the request to then be made to feel foolish for it after

Went here for relaxed lunch on the basis of the gluten free recommendation which we needed for two out of the four of us (one coeliac, one wheat allergy). The drinks were great and the food good when it came, but don't think I'd badge this as gluten free friendly unless the advice has changed since our visit: the coeliac diner was told that although there were GF pizza bases and options to avoid them if on a strict GF diet owing to cross contamination. The wheat allergy dîner could get away with it as it's not contamination that's the issue (so could have GF pizza for instance). All GF diners know cross contamination is a potential issue when dining out, but we were surprised at the advice given as -usually when GF options are available - this indicates it's safe for those avoiding gluten. Considering this is the top gluten-free recommended place on Trip Advisor, it feels a bit misleading. Aside from that comment, the food was good and the drinks too: was just a shame as we went with the view of catering to everyone (and had the coeliac diner in particular in mind when booking!) so just be aware.

Service extremely slow - non existent interaction with staff, we just walked in and found a table after waiting a few minutes. Wasn't that busy when we visited, ordered at the bar instead of downloading an app. Very disappointing portion size for the price, food was also not that hot. Tasted ok but wouldn't rush back. The booths with individual TVs were a nice touch to be able to see the TV if you wish. Music very loud so not the best for small babies/children. Very detailed menus - separate ones for gluten free and vegan. Great choice but not well presented.
