Was seated and given water, then never saw a waiter for 20 minutes. Place was half empty. Men's toilet was disgusting, trash everywhere and sink was full of water with stuff floating in it. Ended up walking out after waiter never returned, so not sure if food is any good.

Food was incredible. Try the Salmon Salad. It was the “the best salmon I’ve ever tasted, hands down” said my husband and I agree. Great service. Did not rush away from our table. Took time to chat with u. Deserves 10 stars.

What a disappointment. The decor and atmosphere is so nice that one would expect everything else would go with it. Fried green tomatoes were good. And that was it. Their signature crispy chicken was soggy and bland. The vegetables didn’t have any taste. The whole plate tasted like hospital food. The buffalo shrimp wrap was so spicy it was inedible and there was no warning in regard to the excessive heat. The bread pudding was brought to me like a dry brick and I had to ask for the vanilla sauce. What they brought me was a small glob of gloop that was burning hot. It wasn’t a sauce it was just a curdled, chunky, gluey mess. It had to be sent back and refunded. I’ve attached a picture to show what they tried to pass off as vanilla “sauce”.

Incredible experience. The food was phenomenal. One of the Best restaurants I’ve ever eaten at. I had a mahi BLT. The waiters and waitresses were wonderful and so very accommodating. Our group of about 55 had a wonderful time.

Five star all the way for Ivy House on the Square in Ocala. Lovely ambiance, friendly atmosphere, delicious food and a fun with a friend. Great way to enjoy a Saturday afternoon.

There were six of us for the birthday celebration of three of the six. The restaurant was busy but, in spite of that, the service was excellent along with the food.

And, it was a special touch when they provided a wonderful desert to round out the evening.

I highly recommend the Ivy House.

A group of 8 ladies for birthday celebrations. Reservations at 12:30. When server came to finally take orders, (half hour after our arrival) one of our guests urgently requested bread or something for her to eat as she is diabetic. It was quite dark and most of the ladies couldn't read the menu. They used their cell phone flashlight to see menu. We finally left at 2:30. 2 hours for lunch was very unusually long.

We were not impressed.
My daughter and I had lunch there today.
We both were not impressed with the food.
She had the fried green tomato BLT. She said it was very bland. The dressing was flavorles.
I had the Mahi BLT.
My fish was way overcooked and had a bad taste.
I took the fish off the sandwich.
So, so salid...
We probably won't go there again.
The restaurant decor was beautiful and it had a nice atmosphere.
