Restaurants near The Strand Hotel

The food and specialty drinks were fabulous! It was very crowded due to the holiday and the service could have been better. Drinks weren’t served in a timely manner. We’ve been to this restaurant before and will come back but not during the holidays!

They were EXTREMELY accommodating. I was late, its the holiday season and they made changes last minute for me. The food was great and came fast.

There were 10 of us & we had made reservations at 5 pm as we had 7 pm theater tickets. Our table was ready for us upon arrival & our waiter was friendly & on point from start to finish. Service was great without feeling rushed & his wine suggestion was perfect. The portions are huge so we started with the calamari & Caesar salad which was plenty for all of us & both very good. We chose 4 dishes, Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Scaloppine, Rigatoni & Broccoli, & Penne alla Vodka & all were delicious. We all commnted that the Penne was the best we’d had as the sauce was not too heavy & perfectly spiced. Although we could have only ordered 3 dishes, we all enjoyed the variety of the 4 choices. We finished off with cappuccinos for the table & made it to the theater with 15 minutes to spare. We couldn’t have picked a better restaurant & the bonus was it was very reasonable. Great job Carmine’s!!

Upon arriving at this divine establishment, we were immediately greeted and welcomed by a fine young gentleman and hostess. We were then escorted to a beautiful and elegant table located on the second floor where an experienced waiter was waiting table side. He helped us, not only, select the most exquisite raw fish/oyster platter, but also provided incredible food, drink, and dessert recommendations to take our taste buds on a journey through New York’s best. The combination between pallet experience, service, and over all elegance made this trip to Frankie & Johnnie’s a whopping 11/10. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to delve into New York’s finest. Cheers to a great time.

Stopped in for drinks and appetizers. View of Empire State Building is awesome. Band playing a bit to loud for such a small space.
