Dinner Before a Seattle Kraken Game at Climate Pledge Arena — Reserve a Table at Grappa
The Seattle Kraken are back at Climate Pledge Arena, and a home game night goes better on a proper dinner. Grappa is a candlelit Mediterranean restaurant about a 5-minute drive from the arena in Queen Anne — an easy, refined spot to gather the group before puck drop. Book about two hours before game time, settle in, then make the short drive over. Reserve a table at Grappa before the game.

What to order before the game
Game-night dinners here lean shareable: start with Wagyu Bites, Sicilian Meatballs, and El Diablo Prawns for the table, then Grappa’s Famous Paella or the Pappardelle Bolognese, and Mama’s Tiramisu to finish. Tell your server it’s a game night and the kitchen will pace your dinner so you make puck drop. Browse the full dinner menu, the wine list, and our cocktails.
Timing dinner around puck drop
Kraken games typically start between 5:00 and 7:00 PM, with doors about an hour before — check your ticket for the exact time. A table about two hours before puck drop gives you a relaxed dinner with time to spare for the quick drive over. Gather the crew on the heated patio, make it a date night in our intimate dining room, or come early for happy hour (daily, 3–5 PM). When you’re set, reserve a table at Grappa.
