OpenTable's 'Restaurants Open In New York City' page flags Chambers as 'Booked 42 times today,' one of the higher live booking counts on that citywide feed, per OpenTable. That kind of real-time tally reflects reservation volume rather than a walk-in line, but it signals the room fills up through OpenTable well before service.

The restaurant's own reservations page states the book opens two weeks in advance and that tables for parties of six or fewer are held to two seating windows, 5:30-6:45pm and 8:00-9:30pm, per Chambers' website — a structure that concentrates demand and makes prime slots go quickly.
