Nestled in the historic Four Seas space, Dynasty Room serves up craft cocktails and enticing Chinese-Korean street snacks in a cozy, art-filled bar before it bids adieu.
"Dynasty Room, which won an Eater Award for best bar in 2018, and only has a few more months to go before it ends its own short run." - Gabe Guarente
"Dynasty Room, a semi-permanent bar located inside the iconic Four Seas Restaurant in Chinatown-International District, will remain open until February. Originally slated to close at the end of this month, the bar will continue to operate due to the delay in the demolition of Four Seas Restaurant. Dynasty Room, owned by I-Miun Liu, opened in April 2018 and won Eater Seattle’s 2018 Bar of the Year. It offers a variety of snacks and drinks, including deep-fried chicken wings with spicy orange sauce, marinated or fried chicken gizzards and hearts, kalbi short ribs, and dok boki, paired with cocktails, soju, and makgeolli." - Megan Hill
"Dynasty Room, from restaurateur I-Miun Liu, captures the zeitgeist of Seattle in 2018. It’s a haunting establishment with one foot firmly in the past, reviving the Chinatown-International District’s historic Four Seas restaurant for one last hurrah as a hip bar. It pays homage to the look of the past century, from faithful antiques like the bronze Japanese lanterns to modern nods like the giant cardboard wolf in the temple-like entrance. Dynasty Room’s other foot is in Seattle’s uncertain present, with tea- and herb-infused cocktails, Chinese and Korean bar snacks, a free event space for the community." - Adam H. Callaghan
"Dynasty Room is another Electric Coffin-designed bar that pays homage to the back bar at the shuttered Four Seas. It features herbs, teas, and other Chinese influences in its drinks, similar to East Trading Co." - Megan Hill
"Dynasty Room will open on April 1 in the International District, taking the place of the defunct Four Seas restaurant. The venue will feature herbal- and tea-infused cocktails, Eastern art influences from designer Electric Coffin, and a menu of Chinese- and Korean-inflected food. The Dynasty Room borrows its name from the back bar at the Four Seas, but the vintage feel will be replaced by new design: Eastern-influenced art, a glowing red entrance remade to resemble a 'sacred temple,' and custom wallpaper. When it opens, Dynasty Room’s hours will be 4 p.m. to close." - Megan Hill
