I Sodi is a small, well-loved Tuscan restaurant on Bleecker Street in the West Village, best known for rustic Italian cooking (its lasagna is frequently singled out by reviewers) served in a tight, intimate dining room. Because the space is small and a portion of seating is reserved strictly for walk-ins, it has built a reputation as a spot people are willing to line up for.
Reservations can be booked in advance through Resy for table seating, but the bar is walk-in only, and that's where the reported waits concentrate — reviewers mention hosts quoting waits of an hour or more, occasionally up to two hours, during peak dinner hours. Multiple accounts suggest arriving right at opening is the best way to grab a walk-in seat without a long wait.
