The secrets
Insider tips
The dining room is Resy only, 30 days ahead, for parties up to six. The bar counter is the walk-in, first come, first served, and the house still says to book the room if you can. Athletic wear can be turned away. Children under three are not seated, and there are no strollers or high chairs. Corkage is $110 a bottle.
That bar is about a dozen seats, held for walk-in parties of one or two, and it runs the full menu. For a 5pm seating, be there around 4:15. A weeknight arrival closer to 6pm was quoted a wait of about four hours. Lunch is the softer book.
Twelve bar seats are held every night for walk-ins, first come, first served, and most of the menu is served there. For weekday dinner or Friday and Saturday lunch, diners line up about 45 minutes ahead; on Fridays, an hour early has put people first in line.
You don't have to hold the line in person. Put your name in, the host quotes a time, and you get a text when your seat is ready, with about ten minutes to get back.
Weekday lunch, Wednesday or Thursday, is the soft spot: diners report solo bar seats right away arriving around 15 minutes before open or late, around 1 to 1:30 PM.
Fridays often host private events. If Resy won't let you set a Notify for a given evening, diners read that as a sign the room is bought out.
