Restaurants:

The Waldorf=Astoria is New York’s most diverse dining destination, with four acclaimed restaurants serving four distinctly different cuisines and five bars and/or lounges.

BULL and BEAR attracts people from around the globe with its ornately clubby look and traditional, hearty fare of prime steaks, chops and seafood.  At the celebrated mahogany bar (cited by The New York Times as one of the world’s three greatest), guests enjoy cocktails, while monitoring the restaurant's electronic stock ribbon.  The Bull and Bear is open daily for lunch, dinner and cocktails

OSCAR’S, completely redesigned by Adam Tihany, has been transformed into an American brasserie, serving classic dishes with  modern twists.  The restaurant, named after The Waldorf=Astoria’s famous style-setting maitre d’ Oscar Tschirky, is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Oscar’s stylish bar opens early and closes late.

Overlooking the majestic art deco Park Avenue lobby, the COCKTAIL TERRACE, serves afternoon tea and cocktails daily to the sound of Cole Porter’s Steinway, which is played nightly.

INAGIKU, an intriguing restaurant offering NewStyle Japanese cuisine in a dramatic setting.  Both the food and décor explore the harmonious contrasts of the juxtaposition of             contemporary to traditional elements.  Classic Japanese ingredients are presented in novel ways, while familiar design motifs are theatrically reinterpreted.  Private, culturally orthodox tatami rooms are available.  Open for lunch Monday through Friday and cocktails and dinner nightly.  Inagiku’s bar offers a convivial atmosphere for cocktails or an informal meal.

SIR HARRY’S BAR offers an inviting bar as well as conversational groupings of cozy chairs around checkerboard tables.  The comfortably relaxed atmosphere is an ideal meeting spot and is open from 1 p.m. to 2 a.m.
