//The line

L'Artusi is a longstanding modern Italian restaurant and wine bar in the West Village, known for housemade pasta, an open kitchen, and a lively bar scene, which makes it one of the neighborhood's more in-demand dinner reservations.

Reservations are booked via Resy on a rolling two-week window released daily at 9am, and tables for popular nights go quickly; a limited number of bar and counter seats are held for walk-ins, with reported waits of roughly 45 minutes to an hour or more on weekend nights. Arriving early on a weeknight or booking ahead on Resy is the more reliable way to avoid a wait.
