This was my 1st time here, the scallop appetizers were delicious, not overcooked and seemed fresh, the salad I had with chicken on top was ok...but, the salad could have used more veggies in it and the chicken portion was small.

This place was amazing! The staff was very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was pleasant. I had the Fried Green Tomatoes, and they were delicious! The She-Crab soup was fantastic. And the Stuffed Fried Shrimp with Nola Rice was very good. But the Banana Creme Brulee took it to the house. It was absolutely a must-have! I highly recommend going here and hope to visit again!

My recent dining experience at Ivy on the Square was elevated by their exquisite creme brulee dessert. The creme brulee was a decadent delight, with a perfectly caramelized sugar crust that cracked delicately under my spoon to reveal a velvety-smooth custard beneath. Each spoonful was a symphony of rich flavors and luxurious textures, leaving me thoroughly impressed. The ambiance at Ivy on the Square was elegant and refined, with soft lighting and stylish decor that added to the dining experience. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring that every aspect of my meal was nothing short of perfection. If you have a sweet tooth, don't miss out on the creme brulee at Ivy on the Square—it's an absolute must-try.

I had the French dip and it was very good my wife had a salmon salad and the piece of fish was very big my kid got the baked chicken and it was good as well. Service was a bit on slower side but that was probably because they were short handed durning lunch hour. Overall an enjoyable experience

I was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere and the food was great. I wouldn’t say it is upscale, as we went in leggings and sandals and were treated just the same as those in nicer attire. Very welcoming and friendly experience, would go here again!

Atmosphere was very good. Food was good but not as hot as I would've liked. Love the bacon wrapped dates.

Arrived 10 minutes before my reservation time (for a party of 2) and was told to come back in 10 minutes. I did that, and they said they were still working on it. I waited. After another 10 minutes and several people being seated who had obviously arrived after me, I returned to the front desk. I saw their list. At least four names after mine had been crossed off. They said they had been waiting for the people at "my" table to leave and that she "could not physically remove them". It is not the wait, per se, it is the attitude. They forgot me and could not bring themselves to admit to it and apologize -- instead coming up with excuses to why it wasn't their fault. Went across the street and had a lovely pizza for dinner instead. Its too bad, I used to like that place.
