The Strand DC, situated in Washington, DC, is the newest venture of the Fish & Fire Food Group, a local hospitality company. Nestled in the tranquil Deanwood neighborhood, The Strand resides in a historic theater originally designed to cater to the emerging motion picture industry.

After years of dormancy, The Strand has been revitalized by FFFG, known for its commitment to revitalizing emerging neighborhoods. Embracing the theater's rich history, The Strand aims to contribute to the vibrant cultural fabric of Washington DC. With a focus on hospitality and community engagement, The Strand DC invites guests to experience a piece of the city's past while enjoying modern amenities and services.
