How to get a reservation at
Carbone

Through Resy. Carbone's website links to its Resy page and also accepts reservations by email at reservations@carbonenewyork.com. The restaurant says it cannot guarantee the validity of reservations made through any other channel, such as resellers.

Time Out and The Infatuation both say tables open 30 days ahead at 10 AM; the restaurant publishes no time. In our monitoring, the newest date appears about 30 days ahead, usually around 9:40 AM, and tables opened on 90 of the last 90 days.

Very hard at peak hours. 90% of the openings we saw were cancellations rather than new dates, and the typical one was gone in about 8 minutes. Time Out got a lunch table through Resy Notify, and The Infatuation says weekday lunch and very late evening are the easier slots.

Not at dinner, according to The Infatuation, which says walk-ins are not accepted and that a walk-in might work at lunch. The restaurant's own site says nothing about walk-ins, so treat it as a gamble and book through Resy instead.

We found no published party limit on the restaurant's site. In our data, 41% of openings are for 2 guests, and openings for 5 or more are common here, but check the size on Resy when you book.

Guests are encouraged to dress for the occasion. The site says no shorts, open-toed shoes or tank tops, and any guest who does not appear sufficiently well presented may be refused entry.

Dinner daily, 5 PM to 11:30 PM, and lunch Tuesday to Sunday, 11:30 AM to 2 PM, at 181 Thompson St, New York, NY 10012, between Bleecker and Houston Streets. The Infatuation lists the phone as (212) 254-3000; the restaurant's own site gives an email.

It is a $$$$ restaurant. The Infatuation lists the veal parm at $89. The restaurant's site doesn't publish its menu or prices as text, so check the menu at the table or call before you go.

Yes, for a fee. Carbone charges $110 corkage per 750ml bottle and $190 per magnum. For more than 3 bottles, email the restaurant at reservations@carbonenewyork.com to coordinate.

The Infatuation points to the spicy rigatoni vodka, the ravioli al ragu, the baked clams and the chopped salad, and says the Caesar is mostly about the tableside show. It calls the $89 veal parm optional, for those who want to spend.

No. Table Alert watches Carbone's public availability and alerts you, with a link, when a table opens. You book it yourself on Resy. We don't book, hold or resell tables, and we don't use bots.
