“ Came here on Friday afternoon lunch while visiting Renton. It was half full from about the 10 tables outside on the pier and tables on the inside. Walked in and the staff was very welcoming and helpful. Wanted to try the traditional fish and chips, so ordered the Alaska True Cod, but also tried the Wild Alaska Halibut Fish and Chips. For the sides, ordered the Clam Chowder and Cole Slaw. Within 10 minutes, they brought the order to the table. There were nice thick cuts of Cod and Halibut. Asked for some malt vinegar as I don't like for tartar sauce or anything else to take away from the flavor of the fish. The fish was very fresh and flaky on the inside with a nice fried crisp on the outside. The chowder thick, creamy, and also had nice chunks of clam. It was a little too cold to eat outside, but the inside still provide a nice view of the water. After the meal, it was a nice walk around the boardwalk right around the restaurant. I can imagine how nice it is to sit outside and enjoy your meal. This place had good quality seafood without paying the high restaurant prices. ”

“ First time to any location and wasn’t sure what to expect with the mixed reviews. It ended up being a great experience. Arsenio was friendly and helped me choose my meal. It was still piping hot when I got back to my hotel. Great taste and plenty of food for the price. Will definitely re-visit when I’m back in town! ”

“ On the 17th of May 2025 I was at this Ivars in order to three-piece fish and chips. It was about 1:00 p.m. and surprising to me was hardly anyone there. It was great. You've had a light batter, not overcooked, and just plain old delicious. This was a pretty Alaskan cod. The fish is small can you get a large order of french fries with it. You can also order a 4 and 5 piece fish and chips. The service with friendly and prompt. I definitely go here again and likely order the four or five piece ”

“ Good food done perfectly. Quick service, clean restaurant. We’ll be back! ”

“ It was a great day to have lunch outside, enjoyed both great food and nice weather. The classic clam chowder was really good, the cod was excellent, only thing the french fries portion a bit on the small side. Service was quite fast, we thought with the long line it will take forever to order and get food, but the employees had things rolling quite fast and organized. Thanks ”

“ First time here for this location. Ordered a small clam chowder. It was a bit on the sweet side but still tasty. Great Lake views and the park. Good place to hang out with family and friends ”

“ What better way to enjoy a rainy, chilly day than over a platter of hot crispy cod. And the smoked salmon chowder is great. I fed 2 young adults and two old adults for under 80 bucks. ”

“ This is one of my favorite places to eat and the food is always cooked perfectly. I was here a few days ago and the customer service was amazing. Thank you so much Arsenio and Shelly for going above and beyond to make sure your customers have a good experience dining here. ”
