Ressies for Less Know Restaurants in NYC?
 

Hello All, I know you need reservations for the "major restaurants(meaning the biggies like Babbo and such)" over Christmas week...but how about some of the less "Known" restaurants like Zuni,Vita Pierre au Tunnel, Angus McIndoe. or Ciro? Should I call today for them or wait till later this week...we are in NYC this Friday. afternoon.

If they're popular with locals, call <i>now</i>. Restaurants are packed this time of year.

Enjoy NYC!

Play it safe and call the restaurant -- it never hurts to have the reservations; you'll probably need them anyway.

Thanks Gekko and Michelle, I WILL call today. Any other tips for NYC dining?

The general rule of thumb for weekend evening dining in New York City: Make reservations!

But be kind and call to cancel if you change your mind, even if it's only a couple hours before your scheduled arrival.

Thanks Patrick and Howard for the advice. I always call if if change my mind :-). I hope others would give the same courtesy...that's what makes a civilized IMO. Judy
