How to get a reservation at Torrisi
Torrisi takes reservations through Resy. Once a night looks sold out there, most people give up — but cancellations happen constantly. Snagr watches Resy for Torrisi around the clock and pings you the moment a table opens, so you can book it before anyone else sees it.
The playbook
The short version
Torrisi, Rich Torrisi and Mario Carbone's tasting-menu-driven Nolita flagship, runs one of the strictest booking systems on this list — Resy-only, deposit-required, and gone in minutes once released. It's a serious reservation for a serious meal.
When reservations drop
New dates open 30 days out at 10:00 AM ET on Resy, with tables sometimes vanishing within seconds of release. Torrisi requires a deposit to hold the table — $25 per person for lunch, $50 per person for dinner — refundable only if you cancel by roughly midday on the day of your reservation. Have your Resy profile and payment saved ahead of the release; any extra screen to fill out mid-booking can cost you the seat.
The walk-in play
Torrisi doesn't publicize a walk-in or bar program the way its more casual peers do — this is a reservations-first, deposit-gated room. If you're in the neighborhood without a booking, calling the restaurant directly to ask about day-of cancellations is a more realistic move than showing up unannounced.
Let Snagr catch the cancellation
Because Torrisi's deposit policy pushes guests to cancel rather than eat the charge for a no-show, tables do open up between the monthly release and the night of service. Snagr watches Torrisi on Resy around the clock and pings you the moment one of those cancellations appears, so you don't have to keep checking yourself.
