The Triple Door

"Gently luxe with a large stage and table seating throughout the house, the venerable Triple Door is a classic Seattle nightclub. Wild Ginger handles the food side of the operation with a greatest-hits version of its eastern Pacific Rim-spanning menu. Beef rendang is satisfyingly heady with lemongrass, galangal, and coconut milk, the monk’s curry is abundant with tofu, eggplant, sweet potato, and daikon, and dry-fried sichuan green beans are a winner for something a bit lighter. The menu helpfully indicates which dishes are vegan and/or gluten-free." - Mark DeJoy, Harry Cheadle, Harry Cheadle

"Walk in to the top level of the Triple Door to live jazz music and maybe some impromptu slow dancing. You will be pleasantly surprised by the strong drinks and moody, chill atmosphere. If you’ve reserved tickets, you’ll find yourself facing the lower level stage. The bones of the space are incredible, and one of the most beautiful and intimate places to see a live show in town. The venue features table service, and delicious food from award winning Wild Ginger kitchen upstairs (easily Seattle's most popular restaurant). With the dark setting and candles to set the mood, a night at the Triple Door is worth the splurge." - Parker

"This elegant dinner theater occupies the historic Mann Building, once a vaudeville house and later a den for smutty movies. Today its original gilding and stage proscenium shine again, and the venue hosts everything from Neil Young tribute bands to a burlesque version of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland . Splurge on one of its semicircular booths, which boast terrific sight lines and sound quality. Or head up a floor to the more casual Musicquarium Lounge, where performers serenade not just customers, but also fish swirling in a 1,900-gallon freshwater aquarium (no cover). Either way, enjoy pan-Asian fare from Wild Ginger, which regularly makes Zagat’s World’s Top Restaurants."
