Reviews for The BackDoor in Seattle, WA
Loved our experience here. We got seated immediately at the bar. The cocktails had some surprising combinations that really... worked, the bartenders were friendly and attentive. They said the kitchen had limited staff so the menu was limited to trufflefries and jerk chicken tacos, but both were absolutely fantastic. Best tacos I’ve had in Seattle actually. Read more
My favorite speakeasy-style experience. Live music from Caety Sagoian on Wednesday was a lovely surprise! We ordered two "Pick... Your Poison" cocktails with notes of bourbon, cherry, and citrus. Back in my day, this Bartender's choice drink was called "YaGotta Have Faith", and tonight they out-did themselves. Read more
Danny and Kenny were amazing! So kind and engaging. They let our party know of all the good happy hour options including drinks... and food! Helping with a great venue. Let us know all the great events they have coming up during the week with liveperformances and music. Read more
Lovely place for an aerial show. Went on a week night and it was not crowded. There's no shortage of nice drinks (pricey, but... strong). 4 stars due to lack of options on food menu with small portions, and was not a huge fan of the music that played in thebackground outside the aerial show (it was loud and took away from the speak easy feel). The aerial artist was fantastic. Read more
This bar is visually appealing. It's dark, sexy, and comfortable. The staff was really accommodating to our large group of 14.... We didn't get our food and drinks for quite some time (over 30 minutes is too long) hence the 4 out of 5 star review. I wouldlove to go here for date night with my boo and maybe get 5 star service. Definitely worth checking out this hidden spot. Read more
Great ambiance, sadly understaffed. Several Covid-related absences led to spotty service, and many got their food before their... drinks. Food was good, drinks were ok. I got canned cider quickly, but mixed drinks were hit and miss. Quite a bit of sand inthe clams, but the grilled Caesar with shrimp was lovely. Read more
Nice place, we were there in a quiet night. Food came a little late 45mins(?). Given we were a party of 7, but all were for... burgers ????. No longer sober to take pictures of them. Staff were nice and place looked clean. They forgot to give me the 2$drink discount on happy hour, but for a 80$ night out it doesn't really matter. Read more
Chill spot, not very busy when we got there for an after dinner drink about 930 pm. He had one of their drink specials with... Mezcal, a little too smoky tasting for me. I sipped on Remy Martin neat, pineapple juice on the side. Bartenders were cool andthe atmosphere was nice. Read more
