Torrisi is one of the tough ones, and its calendar was fully booked when we last looked. That is normal here, and it is not the end of the story: most people who eat at Torrisi get in on a cancellation, which can appear at any hour and usually goes within minutes. We recheck Resy throughout the day and alert you when one turns up, so you can stop refreshing.

“Reservations for both lunch and dinner can be made exclusively through Resy up to 30 days in advance, starting at 10:00 AM EST.”

How hard is it to get a table at Torrisi?

Torrisi books up fast, but people do get in: 0% of its 30-day window was open for two at the last check, yet 32% of its dates had a table open up at some point across 659,302 SnagRes checks. Those tables are cancellations, which land at no set hour and go in minutes, so an alert beats a refresh habit.

Worth knowing before you set your heart on 8pm: across 1,994 open slots we have recorded at Torrisi, none were between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. The tables that do come free are earlier or later, so that is where to aim.

The times we see open run from 11:45 AM to 11:00 PM, and the single slot that opens most often is 12:15 PM.

We have never once seen a Sunday come open, which usually means Torrisi is closed then rather than simply full.

Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time.

What should you know before booking Torrisi?

What is the best way to book Torrisi?

  1. Check what is open at Torrisi right now. Start from the live calendar on this page rather than from Resy. It shows every date in the 30-day window with its current status, so you can see at a glance whether anything is bookable before you spend time on the platform.
  2. Widen your time to include 12:15 PM. 12:15 PM is the slot that opens most often at Torrisi. The full range we see open runs 11:45 AM to 11:00 PM.
  3. Set an alert instead of refreshing. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. Cancellations arrive on no schedule at all, which is why refreshing by hand does not work. Star Torrisi on SnagRes and you get an alert the moment a table appears, with a link straight to Resy.

Frequently asked questions about booking Torrisi

How hard is it to get a reservation at Torrisi?
At the last check, 0% of the 30-day booking window had a table open for two at Torrisi, which puts it among the harder rooms we track, though 32% of its dates had a table open up at some point. The tables that free up here are earlier or later than 7:00 to 8:30 PM, so that is where to aim. SnagRes rechecks Resy throughout the day and alerts you when that changes.
What time can you actually get a table at Torrisi?
The open times recorded at Torrisi run from 11:45 AM to 11:00 PM, and 12:15 PM is the slot that comes open most often. These are the times left available, not the restaurant's full service hours.
What is the best party size to book Torrisi?
Two and four sit close together at Torrisi in our data, 0% of the window open for two against 0% for four, a gap too small to plan around, so party size is not the lever here. Shifting the night or the seating time moves availability more.
Is Torrisi open on Sunday?
We have never recorded an open table at Torrisi on a Sunday, which normally indicates a closing day rather than a full book.
What time do Torrisi reservations open?
Torrisi releases reservations 30 days ahead, at 10:00 AM. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. SnagRes also rechecks throughout the day for cancellations and off-schedule drops.
How far ahead does Torrisi release tables?
Torrisi releases reservations 30 days ahead, at 10:00 AM. A new date appears at the far edge of that window each cycle, and cancellations can surface at any point in between.
Which booking platform does Torrisi use?
Torrisi takes reservations on Resy. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. SnagRes rechecks Resy for Torrisi throughout the day and alerts you when a table opens.
Why is it so hard to get into Torrisi?
Demand outruns the room at prime time: across 1,994 open slots we have recorded at Torrisi, the ones that free up fell before 7:00 or after 8:30 PM. 0% of its 30-day window was bookable for two at the last check, so aim earlier or later, or catch a cancellation.
Can you walk in at Torrisi?
SnagRes tracks reservations rather than walk-ins, so we cannot see a live bar count. Torrisi is busy enough that a walk-in is a gamble, but many rooms like it keep a few bar or counter seats, so it is worth calling Torrisi to ask. For a sure table, star it and let an alert tell you the moment one opens.
Is using a reservation alert legal?
Yes. SnagRes only notifies you when a table opens; the booking itself is an ordinary reservation you make yourself on Resy, under your own name. It does not resell tables, run bots to hold them, or automate the booking, so it does not cross the lines a resale or auto-booking service does.
Does SnagRes book Torrisi for me?
No. SnagRes tells you the moment a table opens at Torrisi and links you straight to Resy with the date prefilled, then you complete the reservation yourself. It never logs into your account and never books on your behalf, which is what keeps your account in good standing.
