Classic food never goes out of style

Restaurants are no different than design.  Fretting about staying in fashion is the fastest way to find yourself out of fashion. 

This is the approach favored by Chef Kelvin Fernandez and the Strand Bistro.  Eschewing what’s trendy and in the moment for classic American dishes, Chef Kelvin has become the youngest executive chef on the NYC restaurant scene, as well as a recent contestant on The Food Network’s highly-rated “Chopped.” 

Showcasing a selection of courses that includes small plates and platters, opening courses and entrees, Chef Kelvin’s classic contemporary menu features specialties like Atlantic Salmon with sweet corn puree, baby vegetables, oyster mushrooms and chive emulsion, Moroccan Spiced Rack of Lamb with mint scented bean Ragu and lamb reduction, and the Bistro Burger on a brioche bun with onion rings and house cured pickles.

Whimsical in design, the restaurant’s intimate dining room features a variety of special places for unique experiences, a built-in bench attached to the fireplace for romantic fireside chats and a mesmerizing fresh water fish tank.  

The Strand Bistro features a full breakfast menu each morning, highlighted by specialty omelettes, made-to-order waffles and healthy fresh fruit, yogurt and cereal dishes for the light grazers among our guests.   

Outdoor café dining is available during the warmer months.
