How hard, and why

Near impossible · 5/5

Editorial estimate. The Polo Bar publishes a phone-only book: the reservations office opens at 10:00 a.m. ET and takes tables up to one calendar month ahead (Ralph Lauren). Infatuation lists it among the hardest NYC reservations. This is not a Resy feed and not a guarantee.
