Of all the Ivar’s restaurants, my favorite is the one that is closed for waterfront development. It is not the restaurant I will miss, but its fish bar.
We went out to Ivar’s fish bar on Sept. 26. We enjoyed its oysters and clams, some clam chowder, and light clam soup for the last time before closing down before construction. Ivar’s on the waterfront closed for the seawall construction on Oct. 1.
I had dined in both its fast food outlet and adjacent restaurant. I am more impressed with the outlet for the food quality. From its chefs to the counter staff, the service was efficient and terrific. It never mattered if there were lines of people waiting. We never had to wait for more than five minutes to get our orders. I wish that all the staff will have jobs during and after construction. I can’t wait for them to reopen in nine months. (end)
