Ivar's Indian Salmon House is one of 31 fish bars and full service-restaurants founded by beloved Seattle showman and restaurateur Ivar Haglund (1905-1985). Mr. Haglund commissioned Seattle architect John W. Adams (1919-2002) to create the Salmon House's interior and exterior, loosely based on a Tlingit longhouse. The restaurant opened in 1969 on NE Northlake Way at the north end of Lake Union and is still in business as Ivar's Salmon House of 2018.
