Went to the Strand House on Saturday, first time since its opening. The place was packed. The bar downstairs turns into a dance place complete with all tables reserved for 'bottle service'. That's where you have to buy a fifth of booze for a ridiculous price. I felt it was a bit like Sunsets, but the bouncer said it was an older crowd not at all like Sunsets. Yeah, that's because they sell glasses of wine for $20 bucks only an older crowd can afford that.
We had the Hamachi Crudo (very good), the Pork Confit Tortelli (just OK and cold), the Hand Torn Pasta Rags (good), and 2 pizzas - Benton & Squash Blossom. A definite no on the Squash Blossom pizza.
All in all, I like this place, but it is pricey and I don't like the 'player' feel to it.
