damnlines hasn't pointed a lens at Café Carmellini yet. The most-wanted lines get a camera first.
Resy's own blog reports that Café Carmellini's tables, released 14 days out at 9 a.m. on the platform, 'sometimes get booked up within less than 10 minutes,' especially for prime slots around 5:30 pm, 6-6:15 pm, and 8:30-9 pm, according to the restaurant's maître d' Robert Banat.
Per Resy, the dining room holds 108 seats plus a 7-seat bar reserved for guests with reservations who are waiting on their table; walk-ins aren't guaranteed since, as Banat put it, 'if everyone with a reservation on a typical night shows up, we're sold out for the evening.'
Patterns as reported by press and regulars — not measured by damnlines.
Reservations: Resy, released 14 days ahead at 9 a.m.; often books out within minutes at peak times per Resy.

There's effectively no walk-in wait to track — per Resy, reservations for prime times sell out within minutes of release, so the 'wait' happens at the booking stage, not the door.
Yes, via Resy, opening 14 days in advance at 9 a.m.; Resy reports slots can book up in under 10 minutes at peak times.
Walk-ins aren't guaranteed a table, per Resy, though the restaurant keeps a waitlist and a 7-seat bar area for guests waiting on reservations, with Resy's Notify feature (300-500 people deep) as an option for late cancellations.
