The service here was so so attentive and friendly that I wasn't even sure who our designated server was. We were walking the boardwalk and just decided to pop in on a whim, no reservation. They made us feel so taken care of, and they even sent m
This was our first time visiting here.
We came for my husbands birthday and they celebrated by bringing a large candle sparkler & brownies with some vanilla bean ice cream. For appetizers we got the calamari & the peach salad. I liked the calamari. For entrees we ordered carne

Dining at Ivy at the Shore is always a dream, but this last visit truly exceeded expectations thanks to the incredible service from Armando and Ricardo. From the moment we sat down, they made us feel so welcomed and taken care of--it wasn't just
Don't order the crab cakes.
What was served to us was so over fried it was like pork rinds/chitlins. My daughter did not want to complain because she was afraid they would spit on her other food before serving it. The rest of our meal was delicious! Service was great. A big y

I've never visited this oceanside Ivy so since they were participating in Restaurant week, I figured now was a good time to do so. There were some people clogging up the entrance due to a stroller and simply being entitled, not noticing other p

It's been several years since I've been to The Ivy Santa Monica. The food is still the same and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. The service was amazing and our waiter was a total star super sweet, friendly, funny and attentive. I would say I
went there tonight with a friend.
she ordered the seafood tower for us to split. was $175- could not eat it. lobster was old and gray, crab was shredded and gray, it was all inedible. I never complain about food, but this was beyond awful. Bill was over $300, and $20 to park. I left
My two friends and I came here for the $55 DineLA.

Ivy At The Shore -- BE AWARE & WARNING! OMG The food was terrible & service just as bad, this place has gone to @#$%^&* Disgusting experience, from the servers, to the food. If I COULD'VE GIVEN IT LESS STARS I WOULD HAVE!
Avoid this place.
There are better choices in this area. It went downhill with the service and food.

For the money, it's not worth it.
Very average food. It was not tasty. The place is pretty sure? The outside is a glass house. An apple juice cost $18 so theres that.
The Ivy ( Either one) always delivers
As always when in Santa Monica, we had dinner at the Ivy on the Shore. It never disappoints, and service and food was 5 star. The Rack of Lamb was superb, and we really appreciate the sensible wine pricing. We were in Vegas 2 days earlier, the same W
Unwelcoming!
The staff were quite rude and a little arrogant. Not at all welcoming. We would have left but we were hungry. Not interested in accommodating our child with a smaller portion unless we were paying the same as an adult size. We loved the cocktails and
Rude staff at Ivy by the shore
Very disappointing experience. The servers and buss boys work so hard here, itโs unfortunate that one staff member can ruin the reputation of a restaurant. I came here on Christmas Eve. The server assigned to us, Roberto was cold and unprofessional
Fun but food overpriced
This restaurant has a great fun vibe. Service is very good. The biggest issue I have is that the quality of the food is commensurate with the price. We had the rockfish with French Butter and honey and a special that was bronzino with butter. It was

Beautiful Restaurant in a Beautiful Location
What a great restaurant right across the street from the beach and the Santa Monica Pier. The food was delicious, the staff was very friendly and they have an amazing terrace. If you go to Santa Monica you should definitely grab a bite there. Especia

It has been a while since I had dinner at The Ivy, and boy, have I been missing out? I have been craving lobster ravioli with pink sauce every day since. Our waiter went above and beyond, ensuring we were okay throughout our dinner. I cannot wait to

It was easy to get a table for four at 6:30 pm only a day before. When we arrived, the restaurant was fairly empty - but by the time we left it was fairly full. There were a lot of tourists (which is obvious, given the location) and the spot is prett

Seemed overrated but I genuinely thought this by the shore
Seemed overrated but I genuinely thought this by the shore location would have been better than an original one! Carlos was my server for the very first time and he had elevated the audience and services to another level!!

Loved the vibe here!
We selected this place as we wanted our last dinner in Santa Monica to be special. The decor is very 1980's, which apparently is when the restaurant first opened. I expected The Ivy to be pretentious but it definitely was not. The waiting staff we

Huge let down! Saw this spot on instagram and was super pumped for the onion rings. The video I saw showed them served with multiple dipping sauces but these only came with ketchup.. maybe the other location has more sauces? Also ridiculously priced.
Lovely place for a delicious date night
Beautiful atmosphere- French bistro feel. Servers all wear light pink shirts. Fresh flowers on each table. Food is very good. The star of the show was the French rose champagne sangria. It's delicious and basically contains a fruit salad, including p
Hard pass.
Looked okay from the outside but on entering found the place.....dirty. Even the menu had food all over it. The waiters were lovely and also mature which generally means great service to come. Unfortunately after I ordered a cold beer and a starter I

Connect with users posting reservations for Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Ivy at the Shore Santa Monica!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
