Be sure to wear your Christian Dior sunglasses and dress in stylish California casual attire if you want to be seated on the celebrity filled patio. The pricey meals are well presented and are complimented by an exceptional wine list. The healthy California cuisine emphasizes a broad selection of seafoods, spicy cajun dishes, grilled meats, pastas and comfort foods. Pros L.A. Desserts Bakery on site - serves devilish delectable desserts Celebrity sightings Cons Expensive prices - $75 per person and up During busy times you might find your reservation was lost to accommodate a celebrity The Ivy 113 N. Robertson Blvd Between Beverly Blvd.and 3rd Street Los Angeles, CA 90048 310 274-8303 L.A. Desserts (take-out bakery in The Ivy) - 310 273-5537 to order Mon-Fri 11:30AM-11PM Sat 11AM-11:30PM Sun 10:30AM-11PM Reservations Required - The Ivy - Hot Celebrity Spot in West Hollywood The decor of antiques and paintings at The Ivy is embellished with baskets of fresh flowers. Ask to be seated on the outdoor patio so you can watch the celebs pull up and chances are you will see at least one on the patio because that is the place to be seen and photographed by the paparazzi. Skip the $28 burger and try a healthy salad full of fresh grilled vegetables and chicken. The crab cake appetizers are popular and so is the house Ivy gimlet. A good choice is the steaming platter of fresh fish, piled high with shrimp, scallops, cod and calamari, plus a tall stack of onion rings and fries. If you want something more spicy, try the mesquite-grilled Cajun prime rib and the Southern fried chicken is great comfort food. The L.A. Desserts Bakery provides mouth-watering meal toppers such as pecan squares or the very popular fresh berry crumble made with blueberries or raspberries. The ice cream sundae may be the best. It consists of rich vanilla and chocolate brownie ice cream, generous portions of hot fudge and butterscotch sauces and topped with fresh whipped cream. Arrive very late after the kitchen stops serving dinner and they might seat you for dessert only, otherwise it is strictly take-out. There is metered street parking, a validation lot and valet.
