All the…read moreoutdoor tables were full when we arrived at 6, so we put our name on the list for inside and waited about 30 minutes. The oysters were the main draw for me, and they were totally worth the visit. Old Stove serves them with a savory watermelon sauce in addition to a traditional cocktail sauce--eaten together, it's a flavor explosion that I can't quite describe. We also enjoyed the garlic everything fries, which were delicious! We just had to try a flight to sample the brews. There are some really good beers available here, especially the Belgian blonde, citra pale ale, and the stout. I did not really care for the seasonal sour (grapefruit, I think)--to me, it just tasted like a sour and nothing more, but someone with more interest in sour beers would probably enjoy it just fine. Despite the busy night, our server checked on us regularly and was very personable, stopping to chat with us about the local sports scene. There's plenty to look at, inside and out. If you can snag a seat outside, you'll get to enjoy the waterfront. Inside, the decor is industrial but fun. Not sure if this runs all the time, but when we were there, the tvs were playing vintage beer ads, which was quite fun. They also sell some pretty good t-shirt designs. Overall, Old Stove Brewing is the perfect combo of good location, good food, and good beer. Definitely recommend a visit when in the Pike Place area!

The food was just okay. We ordered a fried food combo. The fried shrimp was good, the fried squid was average and the fried fish had a great batter but the fish was just okay.

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile and I am so glad I finally did! We ordered a few things to share and every single dish was delicious! Shrimp toast: this was a great appetizer to share! Very crispy and the sauces on the side gave it a more complex flavor! It came with a sweet mayo and chili sauce. The chili sauce is definitely spicy if you can't handle spice so beware on how much you're using if that's the case. I also really enjoyed the slaw that came with it, it was very refreshing and it had a bit of sweet mayo flavor to it, I think it's the same as the dipping sauce but I could be wrong! Fried oysters: these were delicious! I think fried oysters can be a hit or miss for me, sometimes the interior can feel too dry and feel kinda of mushy-like, like I'm eating bread rather than seafood. But this had great texture on the inside while being crispy on the outside! The sauce on the side tasted like a pepper aioli which gave the oyster a nice tang *the fried dishes were great but after having a few, it definitely felt heavy, so this would be something I share with someone else vs eating it on my own Smoked salmon belly dip: I really enjoyed this! It was creamy and had chunks of salmon in it. It wasn't too dense or thick so it was perfect for scooping onto the kettle chips. The kettle chips were lightly salted so it was the perfect combo with the dip. Clam chowder: wow I absolutely loved this! This is different than any other chowder I've had. While I love a white creamy chowder from your typical seafood places, the base being a fish stock definitely brought out the seafood flavor vs a white chowder feeling like a cream base. This chowder still felt creamy and rich without the seafood flavor being overpowered. Rockfish bowl: the crab rolls were sold out by the time we made it to the register so we opted for this instead and I am so glad that we did. I didn't really expect this to blow me away but this was such a refreshing dish that balanced out the fried dishes we got. It used viet flavors that you may typically find in a banh mi which made it refreshing and had great texture from all the different fresh ingredients and fried garlic. I also loved how the fish came in patty form mixed with pork, it was flavorful and moist. I love any type of fish tofu/patty, I think it really makes fish flavorful when it sometimes can have a really mild flavor. I'll definitely be back to try the crab rolls!

One kind lady at the booth suggested to go here. It is a cute little shop, with no view or anything fancy. But you will eat the best chowders that you've had in your entire life. We waited in the line and took us about 15 minutes, not bad . We got lucky and found 3 bar stools to sit on and got their samplers . 4 different chowders of our choice . Omg ... we got : New England clam chowder, the crab and oyster chowder, the scallop chowder (with dill and lime ) this was my top favorite :) and of course the smoked salmon chowder (this was a little bit too salty in my opinion but well , it is smoked salmon so beware if you don't like salty) Staff were super friendly. 4 cups of small chowder was so filling and I was not hungry the whole day. I wish I had space to try their lobster roll, hopefully next time :)

There's no way I was gonna visit Seattle and not leave trying some good chowder!…read more We came here on a weekend, and the line was definitely long. They didn't have much overhead to cover from the rain, so definitely bring a raincoat! If you're a first timer like us, I recommend trying multiple flavors by ordering the sampler. It costs more, but at least you know exactly what to get next time. We got the New England, Market Choice, etc. But those two definitely were the standouts. They were really flavorful, and the place didn't skimp out on the chunks. Nor was there any fishiness at all. They for sure showed why they won awards. Another thing to note as well, they're really strict about the seating. Since the place is small, tables and seats were limited. They're on it, and won't allow you to take a seat unless you order first. Honestly, to save you the stress and time, just order online and go to the many other open seating areas at Pikes.

It offers classic fish and chip combinations with other seafood items. Since it's one of the food stalls inside the armory, there's plenty of seating inside. In fact, since we visited before the Kraken game, we had no idea there was pre-game event here where they have activities and games for kids and families. It was pretty packed at the armory, so good to know in case you visit before a Seattle Kraken game. I ordered the clam chowder bowl and side of fish. You can use the touchscreen for ordering and paying, and it doesn't take long to get your food. They have malt vinegar and ketchup on the side, but you'll need to order tartar for fish. The food was solid. I liked the fish better than the chowder as the chowder had more potatoes than clams. It does come with a side of bread, which was nice for dipping. The fish was flaky and flavorful, especially with sprinkles of lemon juice and malt vinegar. I recommend if you're craving fried fish and are at the Seattle Center.

One of my favorite fish and chips for consistency, convenience, and availability around town. Better fish and chips may exist, but none are as accessible as Ivar's with many locations. What's interesting here is that they have a line for ordering and then a line to pay, but it's clearly labelled. Cod is juicy, fried lightly, and heavenly when paired with their delicious tartar sauce. Chips are soft with a light crunch and also heavenly when paired with the tartar. They have a covered shelter to dine inside but the entire waterfront is nifty to eat around. Restroom (washroom, bathroom search terms) available next door in Ivar's Acre of Clams. Pro tip that the kid cones are delicious and plentiful, so save room for dessert.

You order at the counter and wait for them to call your name. There's usually a line. Prices are not cheap, but won't break the bank. My highest rating is not the number of stars I give.

I could see this place being busy in the summertime! The fish was pretty good. We got the cod 2-piece meal and halibut 3-piece. The fish had a nice, crispy breading. I preferred the cod over the halibut. The fries were not very salty or flavorful. No refills on soda. Great view of the water from the upstairs dining room! Overall, a pretty good experience and nice for a quick meal, but a bit more than I'd like to pay for what I'd consider fast food and nothing to write home about.
