Small intimate theater, fits about 100 ppl but nice spot ... 2 drink minimum
Great venue with a two drink minimum. I wish the front desk clerk was just as nice as the rest of the staff
So Ill agree with other reviewers...dem drink prices! But in all fairness, the prices are similar to other places, so it aint THAT horrible.Love the small, intimate feel to the theater. I always prefer smaller venues because some of the bigger places lose the charm and intimacy you can only get in either off Broadway or a place like the NJ PAC theater. Staff was pleasant. The show itself we saw was very, very good. The headliner has got some pipes on her! She can flat out sing and there wasnt a dull moment during her set.Id be down to checking out more acts there.
Ok venue for the shows (good sized stage, good equip) but poor ambiance and poor service...
Every word that needed to be spoken this evening was on that stage. The best of Hollywood and Broadway embodying the best of celebrity in their heyday. Awestruck. Truly wonderful.
This theater is really beautiful. Its a lovely intimate space for a performance. If it werent for the drink minimum thing, Id give it five stars for sure-- reading the reviews, it seems like Im not alone in disliking that business model, and truthfully, it has kept me from seeing shows at this venue, when Ive been on the fence about something.
I had a wonderful time performing twice there in the last 2 years! The Staff and General Manager were so accommodating! I love the Booking Manager dearly! I recommend for artists looking to sing Off-Broadway in an intimate setting!
Mind you, we were WITH the one of the performers (manager) and still had an awful experience. The theater was pretty and the performers were great, however, the drinks are EXTREMELY over-priced ($14 - $17 for pixie cup size) and theres a two drink minimum, cash only. So on top of paying $20 for a ticket, we spent another $40 per person for awful and extra ice drinks. Definitely not worth it! Will never go back to this theater.
It was cool the staff was friendly but there were some tech issues that were less than fantastic for the show.
Fantastic staff. Every seat is good. Tasty drinks. Joe Hill was hilarious as well ad the other comedians.
The Triad Theater was cool...I can see myself going back...the duo Acute Reflections was great.
I love this quaint theater. The layout is great for an intimate show, the staff is phenomenal (Russell is the best!) and the drinks are just the right strength! I love catching the hysterical ladies of Herlarious in this venue!
Great service and amazing variety show, was here all by myself and the hosts made me feel very comfortable.
Checked out a comedy show here awhile ago, really enjoyed it! Comedy with the stars, was a nice surprise! Drinks were a bit pricey but I understood I was in a historic NYC theater so it was ok & the comedy made it worth it!
From ticket taker to ushers to wait staff to bartender to manager, everyone was warm, welcoming, and friendly. Excellent martinis. Spamilton was funny and performers were incredibly talented! We really enjoyed the show and had a great dinner in the restaurant downstairs afterwards.
Just be forewarned: this venue is more of a supper club or bar with a stage, on the model of the Highline Ballroom, than it is an off-Broadway theater. My party and I were not aware of this, which meant that when we arrived too close to the beginning of the show (we got there 5 minutes before the start time, which was later than we planned, but most off-Broadway theaters dont open the house more than 10 minutes before start time), we had no chance of being seated with each other. We were also surprised, and not pleasantly, to learn about the two-drink-plus tip minimum, which was indicated nowhere in the process of buying tickets to the show we were seeing. (Looking at the Triads website later, there is one mention of the policy under the FAQs for one show that runs there.) Putting the tight space and drink requirement together meant that I ended up on a tab with a total stranger (I can see how the waiter made that mistake, but it was still less than convenient). It seems that the venue hosts some burlesque shows, which seems like a better fit for this type of set-up; while it is small I cant see the Triad being a good space for serious theater (which I dont mean as a dig at burlesque--the Slipper Room hosts some great shows), and I dont see us going to more shows there.
Awesome venue for up and coming talent. The glitch is that most shows have a minimum you have to spend on drinks and food - but the space is nice and toilets are clean. Staff were fine.
Nice and intimate atmosphere, Good seating and acoustic.
The host Mister Dusty Rose and the daily changing performances is something definitely worth coming by for more than once
This place can be a little hard to find--its above a turkish restsurant amd signage isnt great. I performed in a cabaret here, and it was lovely. Acoustics are great, sound tech is on it, staff friendly and efficient. This venue has a lot to offer for smaller, more intimate performances.
Its a small but extremely fun little space! Great service and hosts!
Went for Broadways Next Hit Musical (great improv show, esp if you love showtunes). Small stage but very quaint and cozy theater. Seating is tight, or at least it was packed in there - two chairs to a one person table, chairs standing alone between small tables - for that show. Still an adorable theater with great drink options.
Good little theater with great artists. I love all the shows of its artist résident Adrienne Haan. And it feels like à family
The show was amazing, the Drinks were a little over priced and not strong enough to warrant the high price, 2 malibu and pineapple 30 bucks, whatttttt
Quaint venue to see aspiring young talent
I attended an event that was general admission and arrived early for good seating. However, there were two people guiding guests to seats, and even though my guest and I were within the first ten or so people through the door, we were directed to two seats in the furthest back corner of the room, and with an attitude that made it clear that a dispute would be futile. This followed an extra half hour of standing in a crowded vestibule because the show started late. The server took over an hour to deliver food we ordered, and brought an incorrect drink that took another ten minutes to resolve because we couldnt get their attention from our back corner in the dark venue. The performance itself was very good, which is the only reason Im giving 2 stars and not just 1. I was there because I knew one of the performers. Im in no hurry to return there for any other event.
Ive been here twice to see two different shows at the theater. Its a cozy location with a good lighting and sound. There is a 2 drink minimum policy regardless if you paid for tickets, so bring extra cash with you.
The 2 drink minimum worked out OK, I was worried about the drive back to south Jersey but it wasnt too much after all. Fun show we saw and nice theater! Close to parking, other pubs and restaurants. Fun evening!
Robyn Schalls album recording was amazing. She killed it as well as the other comics that performed. The wait staff was not good charging me for a drink I never ordered and the 2 drinks I did order were wrong.
Intimate upstairs theatre seems plucked straight out of the thirties, which was fortunate in that I went to see a cabaret performance!
Its a nice, intimate theater with great atmosphere. Saw Fleur Seule there. Great sound.
Small cabaret type theater. First drink was good, second one wasnt even though I ordered the same drink. Show was great -Forbidden Broadway.
A hidden jewel box of a theater in the unlikeliest of places. It feels like sneaking in to a speakeasy. But a wonderfully legal one. Great intimate space. Perfect for cabaret and up close performances.
My girlfriend and I saw Youve Got Hate Mail here. When we bought our tickets, we had no idea the venue was a restaurant that had a 2 drink minimum. We discovered this upon arriving but decided to stay for the show since the tickets had been quite cheap and we were able to find good seats. Im glad we stayed because the performance was outstanding but we were a trifle disenchanted with the lack of forewarning about the 2 drink minimum, although that is not the Triads fault per se.
Such an amazing venue and the performances never disappoint!! I love coming here, the atmosphere and the people are incredible. A high calibre of performers every time!
Tiny venue and show was whack. The chocolate cheesecake alone is the 3 stars vs 1 overall for venue.
Intimate cozy theater with table seating. And we saw the best show here, called Nice T!ts, about a womans experience with breast cancer.
I enjoyed a show I saw there. Seems like it could be spruced up a bit. Congested getting in/out to get seats. But - its a fun venue. Would definitely go back. In fact, would like to do a show there.
Went to see Lettuce rejoice. A Christmas tradition w/two friends. Hedda killed it as usual, but really hated the venue. Was sitting balcony, could not see. Also Heddas show relies on audience participation which when stuck in balcony its hard to do.
I had read past reviews about the theater jacking up the amount on the bill by circling in black a dueamount which is more than the total due on the bill. When we went this week to see a show, we ordered two drinks each and were supposed to pay for our drinks plus a mandatory 18% tip. Our bill should have been $ 41 for the drinks plus 18% tip for a total of $ 48.38. We would have of course willingly paid $50 in any case, but we were very annoyed that, just as the previous reviews had stated, our waitress had jacked up the bill to $ 49.45. I did not want to make a scene over a mere additional $1.07 and did leave $50 anyway, but I did not appreciate being taken!..... next time I go to the Triad Im bringing exact change and the waiter will get only what we order: the amount for the drinks plus the minimum 18% (in this case $ 48,38 on the nose
Its a great venue for a show. Its an intimate setting of about 80 seats with great staff. The sound from performer or performers on the stage carries well throughout the room.
Saw Spamilton. Hilarious! Great show and venue. Drinks were not that great and unfortunately there is a 2 drink minimum. The show more than made up for it though.
Nice place!...only thing is no food order after 9pm coz restaurant downstairs were close already!
Cozy but a bit cramped (when filled to capacity) theater in the upper west side. Usually two drink minimum reqd. Staff is overwhelmingly cordial and helpful.
Generally good space but very cozy so be warned that this isnt standard theater seating. Also, drinks are a little pricey but its Manhattan so no surprise there.
They need to have somewhere to get some food they have a restaurant right downstairs underneath the place seemed like to me they alter get together and let the restaurant serve the people some food at least some things that they have thats quick and easy sauce just drinks or you get his drinks you can get popcorn and pretzels but he want that s***
Awesome theater that has great service its not particularly big so be aware and also the bathrooms dont fit a lot of people but the show I saw was great and the staff was very friendly
My first time there, but what a beautiful setting! Very cozy and intimate, great sound... will check out future events
Great venue. Acoustic were great. Im not a fan of the 2 drink minimum. But everything else was great.
A great intimate venue. So glad there are place like this for our favorite up-and-coming band to play at. Staff was great.
Small and intimate no bad seat. Drink and snack menu was ok too a long time to come after you order
GREAT SERVICE!!!!! GREAT LOCATION!!! The manager was really fun and added to the experience and made me love the theatre even more to come back again!!!!
Nice little theater in the UWS. The small plates were REALLY small, though.
Birthday bash for Charlie Romo was a WOW! Triad staff and seating venue were superb. Thank you!Wayne KennedyAJK Artists
Absolutely off the charts. Grew up in area 60 years and never knew. Cozy quaint no less a friend performed Jazz LOVE songs, oh my!!!
Gorgeous tiny theatre, probably the most ornate cabaret venue in NY. Truly beautiful. But come for the shows, not the drinks.
Wonderful concerts, reasonable price.... very charming place, , looks like a baby opera house!
Friendly staff but the drinks are horrible.
Jean-Pierre and his staff are amazing! Customer service through the roof!
Saw a show, had a great time. Drinks were strong, though a little sugary.
The show was beautiful. It was hilarious. The performers were funny and very out going
I like the setup and the wait staff was very nice. Very small food menu, which I understand.
They do a great job of production. Excellent sound and lights in an intimate space thats comfortable and spacious.
Gina Moffa performed at the Triad and was magnificent! Wonderful, heartfelt, holiday musical afternoon.
An actual theater with a variety of regular shows, definitely worth the visit if you are in the Upper West Side.
Need to come up with a better strategy for seating a show. Just letting people spread out makes it extremely difficult for groups seating closer to the showtime to find anything decent.
Kind of a hole in the wall. Its good enough for an off-off-Broadway show though. Arrive early since the seating is general admission.
Cool theatre. Strange location and kind of uncomfortable. Drinks are meh but its an intimate space.
The staff and management were so friendly, and I really enjoyed the show!
Show was great. Not overpriced.
Great small venue for shows. Highly recommend!
Small quaint theatre with friendly professional staff. Looking forward to my next visit.
Awesome, comfortable, beautifully designed caberet-sytle seating. Personable waiter.
Great space. Surprisingly fun for the upper west side. 2 drink minimum and worthwhile.
Small but comfortable. Make sure you get a front seat and youll be fine.
Intimate theatre. Great drink service. Diva show was outstanding.
Always great. Intimate space with good sound and sightlines. Great variety of talent, too.
Charming venue, good shows, but drinks are small and overpriced.
No bad seats and good acoustics in this small theatre.
Could use a bit more stage space. But overall very awesome place to play and or visit.
Beautiful place. The lighting there is amazing. Just beautifully done with phenomenal aesthetics.
Great Off Broadway type venue. Located above the Seven Mediterranean restaurant.
Isaac is amazing.
Great small Theater saw a great show called Divas enjoyed
Performance was great. Check-in process and anteroom leave a bit to be desired.
Saw Spamilton here. Acoustics were good and the drinks were strong
Go for their shows, which can be good, but the drink selection, quality, and pricing are terrible.
Ok theater, a little over priced
Great show, not too expensive for a wonderful time
Love the venue. Seating is excellent and the venue is charming.
Blake and Lyons were hilarious. Great show.

2021-11-09This is awesome little theater. Unfortunately unbeknownst to us, the show was cancelled. We traveled 2.5 hours from Connecticut to attend and we were never informed of the cancellation. The hostess Amy was extremely helpful and nice. She welcomed us into the theater where we relax for a little while took pictures and enjoyed a glass of wine before we left. If the rest of their employees are anything like Amy they are truly blessed.

2022-05-01The theater is beautiful. Really awesome space with a nice cozy feel. The show was amazing. The singers that performed took my breath away. The host was so engaging and really added something special to an already awesome show.I wanted to get it 5 stars because of the show alone but the drinks were horrible. The worst part was that there was a 2 drink minimum. Actually, I was wrong...that wasnt the worst part. The real worst part was that the drinks were so expensive! Pretty much a glass of ice and cheap fountain sourmix with an essence of the spirit you ordered. Im not a picky eater or drinker but bad is bad. Id love to go again to see another show but the 2 drink minimum is a huge deterrent.

2022-09-17It is a small off- Broadway theater. They give up & coming playwrights & actors a chance to test & develope their craft. You just might enjoy it!

2020-03-09Beautiful vaudeville theater on 72 ND street, 2 mins walk from subway station.Friendly staff, great selection of shows from burlesque, great American song book to jazz and theater.

2022-01-29Very charming. Reminds me of the 1930s burlesque/ cabaret/ comedy clubs. Very New York City vibe. Great show lineup. Great space for filming as well. Not much stage space if you need a lot of movement, but for park-n-bark type concerts, this is a great place to be.

2021-11-24The Rose Room show was very different and unique but in a good way. I enjoyed every aspect of it. The host was absolutely hilarious!! Would definitely want to see it again.

2021-09-27The Cabaret Show BETWEEN FIRE AND ICE was excellent. Adrianne Hann has a great voice, with interesting commentary, she sings in both English and German. The pianist accompanying the singer was fantastic! The intimate setting is perfect for this show.
