Washington’s famous seafood bar, Ivar’s , has announced that its newest location in Gig Harbor will open in February 2026.

The Gig Harbor Ivar’s will be located at 4901 Point Fosdick Drive and will be the chain’s first new restaurant in seven years, according to The Puget Sound Business Journal .

“We have been looking for a spot in Gig Harbor for 15 years,” Ivar’s President Bob Donegan told The Puget Sound Business Journal . “We had looked at this location about seven years ago, but the rent was too high. They approached us again in August, but the price was still too much. Then they finally said, ‘Let’s make a deal.’ We signed the lease last month.”
