Located in the new Strand Hotel in the Flatiron District, The Strand Bistro serves an American bistro menu. As you enter the lounge at The Strand Bistro, you cannot miss the swing, which you might whimsically take a ride on before checking in with the hostess for your table. There is a hideaway lounge-seating area to the left with a prominent wine display above, a long, tall table for cocktails and, as you continue back, an alabaster bar followed by two more lounge areas with a stand-alone fireplace between them, framed by bookshelves. For intimate fireside talks, there is a built-in bench attached to the fireplace. To the left is an exotic saltwater fish tank that separates the lounge from the dining area. As you walk through 10-foot-tall French doors you enter the 54-seat dining room covered by a retractable roof, which opens to the sky during warmer months.
