Profile

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. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Weddings

By day, Astra is a bustling café; by night, an intimate venue featuring 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. Prices range from $75 to $200 for dinner per guest.
