//The line

Nyonya does not take reservations, per its Michelin Guide listing and multiple restaurant-directory sources, operating instead on a first-come, first-served basis that produces waits during peak weekend and dinner hours.

The restaurant is cash-only, a detail confirmed across several listings, and turns tables relatively quickly once seated, so the wait tends to be shorter than the crowd size might suggest.
