damnlines hasn't pointed a lens at Strange Delight yet. The most-wanted lines get a camera first.
The Infatuation's Fort Greene guide describes Strange Delight as split into two distinct zones: a "walk-in-only bar area" where a meal runs about $50, and a separate reservable "pastel dining room" where spending climbs closer to $150 (The Infatuation).
That two-tier setup means walk-in guests are steered to the bar side rather than turned away outright, according to the same guide, while the dining room is booked ahead through the restaurant's reservation system (The Infatuation).
