Where To Hang Out Near 14 Restaurants With Long Waits - New York - The Infatuation
"From the team behind Miss Ada, seafood-focused Theodora saves some bar seats for walk-ins. But that’s only sort of helpful on a Thursday night, when every Fort Greene couple has decided that they deserve to eat some sexy little fish plates. Don’t freak out. Petit Paulette, a tiny wine bar opposite Fort Greene Park, is less than a 10-minute walk away. Slurp some pre-seafood oysters and sip on a glass of wine or two. If it’s too full of young people pretending they’re in Paris, head to Rhodora, a wine bar with frequent pop-ups and outdoor seating. Reservations get released online 30 days in advance at 9am. They save the bar and a few tables for walk-ins, and waits aren’t atrocious. At 7pm on a Wednesday, the host quoted us 30-45 minutes for two spots at the bar. For a solo diner, there was no wait at all." - willa moore
