Ivar's Acres of Clams

The host Antonio was very friendly and funny! The chowder here is still the best. The ambience is beautiful. The fire place and the grand space is very inviting. The 60 dollar salmon dish tasted more like 30 dollars I dont think it was that good but I think its because they didn't add enough salt and butter. They have the fast casual version next door which I haven't tried yet.

This clam chowder was super duper tasty! $7 for a cup, not bad for being directly on the pier. Will definitely come back next time. Watch out for them Gulls!

A gem of a local institution. Consistently great service and food, at all locations.

Always delicious. I like the seafood.

The waiter came off being rude. I always saw him standing around. When I mentioned that something seem wrong with the fish.;he seemed disgusted that I mentioned it.
I’ve been there a few times n today i walked in n automatically i can smell fish n it wasn’t a pleasant smell.
I may return havent figured out if it would b worth it. If not ill just go to the one in Kirkland or Bellevue

I wish we had photos to post, but the food was so good. We forgot to take pictures! My wife had the copper River salmon while I had the king, salmon and coho salmon duo. Both dishes were extremely delicious and the lemon thyme was spot on as was the hollandaise sauce. My Old Fashioned was so good my wife helped me drink them.

Nice view and drinks at the happy hr price. Food was ok nothing too exciting.

Great place the food was very good , I'm sorry to say that I don't eat seafood but their steak was awesome. My friends had some of the dishes and they were all satisfied with the quality of their seafood. However the service is a bit efficient and the response it's kind of delayed.

The worst scallops I've ever had

Excellent location right on the waterfront with really delicious clam chowder, seafood, and sourdough bread rolls with an attentive wait staff.

Anna S was our server. She took our order and disappeared for 40 minutes. No checking on us. Food arrived Cioppino's muscles were rotten and broth unbeatable. Fish and chips came cold. There was no offer to refill water. There's of guests aye food but it was still substandard. Whatever you do, avoid as servers stand around. Restaurant was not busy. So there was no reason for lack of service and over 40 minutes to get cold food.

The service is extremely slow and unfriendly. The cioppino was awful and too spicy. The fish and chips was cold and overcooked.

The restaurant is huge! Lots of cool things to look at. Clam chowder seemed to be 90% potato but still tasted good. The bread and butter were great and worth the price. Entrees were ok, nothing to write home about. The service was not good. Had to ask for water four times. There was a manger type on the floor who finally got us water. The waiter kept disappearing. Drinks took forever.

I will say maybe it was an off night. The bad service kind of killed the mood.
