Ivar's - Seattle

Local favorites (I am here for special occasions, as far as I can remember) with an amazing seafood buffet for Sunday brunch. Not sure if Brunch Post Covid is available. We had appetizers, King Lachs, sourdough bowl with shells, halibut and chips. The King Lachs was worth it.

Feast for fried food. We ordered Halibut with Fritten. It was dry, but edible. The fried mussels were my favorite. The Chowder with the bread bowl was thin and the bread was cold, but the taste of them together was decent. The shrimp cocktail was nothing to please. Definitely order the Cajun Baby Snacker. It's juicy and not too sharp. We also ordered three soft drinks and a bottled water. Our total amount was approx. $70 and seats were picnic table in the tent. I'd definitely come back here.

Excellent dinner. Ivar has many types of seafood and chips. They offer cod, salmon, mussels, shrimps and oysters. They also offer New England style clam chowder that is based on cream. For non-sea foolivers, they offer a chicken stripe bake and a chicken sandwich. If it does not rain, take your food to the outdoor tables on the water with a view of downtown Seattle and the iconic space needle.

Great location with outdoor seating and great offers for Happy Hour! We stopped buying for the late dinner and it was a happy hour. There are good discounts on popular products such as fish and chips crispy calamari, beef tips and much more. So we ordered too much food! The fish and chips were good as expected, the Calamari was crispy and also the dipping sauces were good. I had the Ram-Bie on the barge that was good, but not my favorite. We enjoyed our time there, it was a beautiful day and we could see the boats on the water, the food and service were great and the happy hour menu?.

Best place on Lake Union in Seattle for an outdoor Lunch for about $20. Their Fish Bar at the North Lake Union location appears to serve slightly larger portions of salmon than outlying outlets by the same name. Watch boats sailing from lake Washington to Lake Union as you dine on Fish n Chips. The Smoked Salmon Chowder is especially good. On the day of our visit, we spotted the Seattle Fire Boat Chief Seattle passing by. Kenmore Air Float planes can be seen in the distance. They cut a take off path on the Lake to alert boaters of intended take departure. Free guest parking across the street. Property also offers a 100 feet boat dock and free tie up while dining at restuarant. Pick up your order, then access the dining dock by walking around the Salmon House Restaurant entrance and continue about 10 feet past totem poles to the outside ramp leading to dock where there are tables and chairs. Crank up umbrellas offer shade. If you prefer a historic spirit inspiring setting, dine inside Salmon House for Lunch or Dinner. The Bar offers a large Happy Hour Menu which rates a separate review.
