About Ivar's

Ivar's World Famous Northwest Seafood & Chowder is a popular seafood restaurant in Seattle, known for its fresh and flavorful offerings. The fried seafood mix, including cod, clam fritters, and plump shrimp, is a standout, with a crisp and light breading. The clam chowder is well-balanced, with larger chunks of clam, while the dungeness crab bisque is tomatoey and delicious. The boiled clams are also fresh and not sandy. The service is cordial and informative, and the atmosphere is warm, with stunning views of downtown Seattle. The restaurant is a no-frills stop worth considering, offering a pleasant Seattle experience with its outdoor seating and the opportunity to watch the seagulls.
