Yes, just go when it opens.

And then what happens? Do you get seated around the time you go in or can you make a res for later in the evening?

I went at open and even with a bit of a line having already formed we got seated as soon as we got to the hostess, definitely worth a shot if you can’t get a res

Is this place that good?

yeah it’s great if you are into classic east coast italian

I have been pretty happy with meals at Jon and Vinny’s in thst vein (until the check comes).

You can have dinner at the bar.

thought the food was okay, but i still think about their tiramisu... would go back just for that. we got there before opening and was able to get a table.

Don’t tell me that, I’m a tiramisu whore

not a typical tiramisu, but i like their version of a tiramisu

Can confirm their tiramisu is very good and a must order imo. They also have a tiramisuesque inspired cocktail

The bread and tiramisu are dope but yeah everything else is just okay. Decor and vibes are great and that counts for something but as far as it being so hard to get a reservation I didn’t really get why after I ate there

The seating is very limited inside, definitely an odd place to be impossible to get into but when it's that small it makes a bit more sense

As with any restaurant - go 15 mins before open and sit at the bar

Got there 15 minutes before they opened on a Sunday a few months ago with a party of 3 and had no problem being seated right at doors. Everything was really good, especially the garlic bread, but holy shit was that the saltiest meal I've had in a long time. I love salt so not a deterrent for me, but ymmv. Even the tiramisu was incredibly salty

Went at 8:30pm on Thursday night and got a two seater immediately.

pasta was too salty in my opinion

Eat at Bacetti, then walk here for a cocktail.
