"I grew up in Burien but spend half my time in California these days. When I am in California, I go looking for good fish and chips which is hard to find. I do not know why good fish and chips is so hard to find in many cities in California, but it is. Gives me a great appreciation for Ivar's. I returned to Burien on Memorial Day Weekend. The first place I dined out at was Ivar's. It did not disappoint. I enjoy the clam chowder and the fish and chips. The tarter sauce is good as well and good fish and chips needs a good tarter sauce to go with it. I have been to Ivar's all over the Puget Sound Region and find them consistently good. There is one complaint I have, that is the ketchup they use is terrible. I keep trying it and for years have tried it at multiple Ivar's locations and it is always the worst ketchup I have ever had. This would be a 5 star review if it were not for the ketchup."
