“Alex does an awesome job!“

“Our lunch at Dukes on Friday was outstanding. Their chowders are very flavorful, four different ones, each unique. And the Dungeness crab salad, well, what can you say? Amazing! Thank you for a great dining experience in Bellevue!“

“Hello,

I live in downtown Kirkland area, and I have always loved Ivar's Seafood Bar. Even though I don’t eat out often, your food has always been one of my favorite choices.

During my last visit, I noticed a small fly on the edge of my plate. When I brought it to the register, the staff member who was otherwise very kind and helpful touched the edge of my plate with their hand and removed it, saying it was “just a herb.” In that moment, I didn’t know how to react, so I returned to my table and continued eating.

However, afterward I felt uncomfortable and unsettled. Part of me even questioned myself, but at the same time I couldn’t ignore that my plate had been touched. It affected me more than I expected I felt uneasy, and it stayed with me.

What makes me most sad is that I now feel like I can’t come back to a place I truly love. I find myself hesitating, as if I might experience something similar again. I believe this was an unintentional mistake, and I do not want anyone to get in trouble. I have respect for your team and understand that people can make small mistakes.

I kindly ask please ensure that situations like this are handled with care, and that no one touches a customer’s plate.

Thank you for your understanding. I’m sure you will take this into consideration.

I truly hope something can be done so I can feel comfortable coming back again, because right now I find it difficult to return to a place I really love.

If needed, I would be willing to share details of my visit to help you review the situation.

Sincerely,“

“I had a shrimp Caesar salad and it was quite tasty!😋“

“New Englander through and through got the Cajun fish basket and clam chowder. First time here went off what was recommended. Cajun fish fry was great snappy crust flaky fish, chowder well, more like soup but still flavorful. I am biased but still solid food for just arriving to Seattle living on 4hrs of sleep.“

“Tasty Finds at Crossroads Mall - Must-Try
Spot!
Crossroads Grill & Burger offers something for everyone! Their gluten-free and vegan burgers were both surprisingly delicious. The chicken wrap was juicy and packed with fresh veggies.
Kids loved the crispy onion rings, and the chicken salad was light, fresh, and perfect for lunch.
Fast service, friendly staff, and tasty food — a great spot inside the mall for a quick, satisfying bite!“

“I've been a Seattle resident my entire life and I've probably been going to Ivar's restaurants almost as long. Let's put it this way, I'm old enough to remember Ivar Haglund's commercials and his guest appearances on the JP Patches show. 😆

I've been meaning to write a review of the Issaquah Ivar's because I'm a local and I've always had such good experiences there. Truthfully, I didn't even realize there was an Ivar's in Issaquah until just a few years ago.

As a former restaurant worker (Shari's) many years back, I'm pretty picky when it comes to restaurants. Here's what I like about this one:

About the restaurant:
-It's clean.
-Bathrooms are well maintained.
-Tables are cleared quickly.
-The drink and condiment section (sodas, ketchup, tartar sauce stuff, etc.) always seems to be well-stocked with everything.
-Floors are clean too.
-Have I mentioned it's clean? lol
-The food is always served hot and fresh. Fries are crispy, fish is crispy, chowder is *amazing*, salads are good. My kids don't like the coleslaw (I think it's good) but they love all the other stuff on the menu.

About the people who work there:
-Great, personable customer service.
-The people who work there are quick when you need something.
-I'm not sure who the red-headed manager lady is but she's really attentive, helpful, and funny. Ever since she started working there, that Ivar's location has really improved on all levels. The previous management was OK but this manager really seems to go above and beyond.
-Bob - Have you met Bob? He's an older gentleman who works there and he's seriously an Issaquah legend. My whole family loves Bob! He is the kindest man and we always look forward to seeing him there. I mean, this Ivar's is good but Bob really sells it. He's definitely one of a kind.

Overall, I feel comfortable eating at this restaurant because they seem to run a tight ship. As far as restaurants go, it's one of the cleanest I've been to anywhere.

And now I'm hungry and need some fish and chips. lol.

(Sorry I don't have better photos. I'm one of those people who pretty much only take pictures of food.)“

“Their food is awesome. One of my favorite places to eat.“
