Ivy Road House - Charlottesville

Jack was very professional in his presentation and timing at our table, making sure our drinks were promptly delivered. We both enjoyed the fish and chips, which was an excellent choice. The special and requested cocktails were also fantastic. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant.

Entering the restaurant, we were warmly greeted and seated by the hostess, followed by a gracious welcome from the owner, Bill Mckechnie. Our waitress, DeJa, provided excellent service, accommodating our specific dietary requests with a positive attitude. She was knowledgeable about the menu and made helpful recommendations. The quality of the food and presentation was outstanding, and the level of staff attention was just right. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience and we look forward to returning and requesting DeJa as our waitress. It's clear that good waiters and waitresses, like DeJa, are essential in creating a positive dining experience.

Our dining experience was fantastic. Our server was attentive and delightful. The atmosphere is elegant and stunning. A fantastic restaurant in Northern Virginia.

That was our first visit. not too busy for a Saturday night. the tables were nicely spread, the room was attractive. the menu is not huge, but there was a good selection of dressed and inexpensive. the wine list was expensive. they need more choices in the range 30-$40. our party ordered salmon, hangers steak, gnocchi with sausage and garnel and caesar salat. the salmon was good, like the steak. the fries with the steak were too salty. the gnocchi were more like pasta dishes with very little substance. that was too salty. I couldn't finish her. the salate was good. our server offered the right attention.

The interior is contemporary and relaxing. The food was terrific and the gnocchi I had was delicious. I really like the large open doors at the rear , complete with a screen to let in fresh air and a view of the green field beyond.
