Within the D&D Building
The D&D Building's unofficial commissary has a stellar view, a menu devised by Charlie Palmer, and is open to the public for lunch only. Try grilled salmon niçoise, purée of wild mushrooms, and the Astra Blast—a dressed-to-kill BLT.
WeddingsBy day, Astra is a bustling café; by night, an intimate venue featuring famed chef Charlie Palmer’s cuisine. Windows run along the north and east walls with views of Manhattan’s lights and the Queensboro Bridge. Astra can accommodate 140 guests without dancing (120 with), and 300 for cocktails. Events are $75 to $200 per guest.
