Seattle Small Plates With a Side of Theater
Seattle Rooftop Next Level Lounge by Fogo De Chão pairs skyline views with cocktails and small plates in this downtown selection. The 5th Avenue Theatre and Benaroya Hall offer two distinct performance settings, while Freeway Park brings a concrete-and-green pause above the interstate. Choose a current musical or concert, then compare a lounge visit with time in the park.


At 400 University Street, the rooftop lounge above Fogo de Chão focuses on drinks and small plates. It operates separately from the main restaurant downstairs. The kitchen serves shareable bites such as lamb chops and lobster mac and cheese. The bar pours craft cocktails, premium whiskeys, bourbons, and South American wines. Outdoor seating overlooks the downtown Seattle skyline.
