How to get a reservation at
Raoul's

Only on Resy. Raoul's says reservations are made exclusively through Resy and that it does not make, edit or cancel any reservation in house. Table Alert watches the Resy calendar and alerts you when a table opens.

Raoul's says reservations can be booked a month in advance and does not publish a time. In our monitoring, new dates appear 31 days ahead, usually around 7:55 AM, and tables opened on 90 of the last 90 days (our lead-time buckets group 22–45 days; the calendar stops at 30).

Hard at the release, easier later. 94% of the openings we saw were cancellations, not new dates, and the typical table stayed open about 2.3 hours. The Infatuation calls a reservation here inevitably hard to snag.

At the bar, yes. Raoul's says the bar is seated first come, first served at all times, and the Burger Au Poivre is served at the bar only, 12 a night. The Infatuation calls the bar the best place to sit.

Up to 8. That is the largest table Raoul's has, and it does not combine tables. Anything larger needs a full restaurant buyout with at least 6 weeks' notice. Most openings we see are for 4 guests (44%).

Cancelling or not showing up within 12 hours of the reservation costs a non-refundable, non-transferable $50 per guest. Reservations cannot be modified inside that 12 hours, so only book a table you intend to keep.

No. Raoul's states that reservations found to have been purchased or traded on platforms outside Resy will not be accommodated, and it does not edit or transfer bookings in house.

No to both. Raoul's does not allow outside wine, citing its extensive wine list. It does not take Apple Pay: card payments need a chipped card that goes into the reader.

Dinner every day, with the bar opening at 5 PM and the kitchen at 5:15 PM, and brunch on Saturday and Sunday from 11 AM to 2:30 PM. Raoul's is at 180 Prince Street, New York, NY 10012. Phone 212.966.3518.

The Infatuation rates it $$$$. On the dinner menu, entrées are $24 to $36, Petits Plats start at $7, the steak au poivre is $64, roast chicken $38, Wild Dover Sole $68 and sides are $14. Caspian Sea Ossetra caviar is $145.

No. Table Alert watches Raoul'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.
