   I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ivy, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! First and foremost, the service was outstanding. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring that our needs were met without being intrusive. They were knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations, which added to our overall enjoyment. The food was simply delicious. Each dish we ordered was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell that the chefs take great pride in their craft, using fresh ingredients that elevate each meal. I particularly enjoyed their signature dishes, which showcased a perfect blend of creativity and tradition. What truly sets Ivy apart, though, is its atmosphere. The ambiance is vibrant and inviting, with an eclectic decor that adds character to the dining experience. Whether you're looking for a cozy dinner or a lively night out, Ivy provides the perfect backdrop. Overall, I absolutely loved my experience at Ivy. Excellent service, delectable food, and a really cool atmosphere make it a must-visit. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu! Highly recommended!

   We wanted an after-show dinner. The menu was large without being exhausting. The prices were reasonable considering the ambiance and service. Our waitress was attentive without hoovering. We really liked the backlit menus and wine lists so we could read them in the dim light!! A very pleasant Sunday evening dining experience.

   Quite honestly we haven't found a menu item we didn't like yet. My favorite is the lamb chops...just excellent. Service has always been outstanding with just the right amount of "checking in." Another plus is the outdoor patio which with a little cooperation from the weather will be opening soon.

    Ivy never disappoints. The food is amazing and the host is charming.  Although prices have risen slightly, is well worth going there. The patio in the summer is delightful. A particular favorite is the Parmesan crusted salmon, and the truffle burger love this restaurant.

    This was our first time at IVY and I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was. The warm and welcoming decor of this restaurant is spectacular. We were seated near the fireplace and that made it even more special. Our waitress was very pleasant and answered all of our questions. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The wine was exceptional, and we were especially impressed that despite how busy it was, we had no trouble hearing each other across the table. What a great find in the heart of Wheaton. We will definitely return.
