Absolutely amazing. Food was delicious, especially the mussels. The red curry sauce they came in was perfect, adding spice and flavor. Add some of the sauce to my salmon on the Spicy Blackened Alaskan Sockeye Caesar Salad, and holy crap was that a great idea. My partner got the Cajun Salmon & Chips, also fantastic. Not very spicy, and the breading was nice and light compared to usual fish n' chips. Also shout out the service! Kind, helpful, and gave great recommendations...

I love Ivar Clam Chowder!! I don't like clam so I bought the salmon version, and it was still great! only thing I would change is the salt content, because it was pretty salty. Still delicious though!!

The people there were nice and pleasant! We went there late in the day but there was still a nice peaceful atmosphere. It also has wheelchair service and an accessible ramp in the front.

Ivar's Salmon House has one of the best views in the city. It has a massive sail up porch that makes it feel more like a Carolinas inner passage restaurant. Sit outside on a sunny day and enjoy the space needle, float planes, and kayakers on Lake Union. They have a good seafood selection and a variety of beer and drinks. One of my favorite places on a summer afternoon.
