    We really enjoyed our evening. Your staff are fantastic. Chu’s customer service was outstanding. He was excellent and very helpful. He was also extremely attentive. He really made our experience enjoyable. He explained every course so well and was a really lovely server. He made our meal very relaxing and an enjoyable experience. We also then had a drink at the bar and Kuba deserves a special mention for making my partner a special birthday surprise with his drink of dry ice. He was also very knowledgeable on the menu and very helpful and friendly. Thank you for a lovely evening. Your staff are what make the experience worth it even more so than the food and they are invaluable.

    More show than service / value. Some of the staff were a bit abrupt/ driving a script. Did not feel authentic. Bit of a factory / process driven for yield/sweating the opportunity/asset vs customer experience. But I’m picky and Cardiff does not have great choice in this regard. Will come back - good but not great

    We were asked to order our desserts, if we wanted them, about 10 minutes before they expected us to leave because they needed the table back. I've never come across this before. We have eaten at the Ivy cardiff many times and have never encountered this. There were plenty of tables for 2 avaliable. Won't return.

    Dear Anna, thank you very much for your honest feedback, we will pass this over to our management team, take care!
