Per Resy's own blog ("Five Things to Know About New York's Borgo"), Andrew Tarlow's wood-fired Italian trattoria releases new reservations on Resy 21 days in advance at 10am. The Infatuation's review of Borgo confirms the same cadence, writing that "reservations are released online 21 days in advance at 10am" — meaning a table has to be booked with a calendar reminder rather than picked up on short notice.

Both sources describe a real walk-in path for diners without a booking. The Infatuation reports that the 10-seat bar and three bar-area tables are open to walk-ins starting at 5pm nightly, and Resy's blog adds that "the bar will always be held for walk-ins" — a deliberate carve-out rather than overflow seating, though it's first-come, first-served once the doors open.

The Infatuation's review, headlined "We'd transfer three trains for an elegant, grown-up meal at Borgo," frames the restaurant as a destination worth planning around rather than a casual drop-in, noting it's Tarlow's first new opening in ten years after Diner, Marlow & Sons, and Roman's.
