Pastis is a French bistro/brasserie at 52 Gansevoort St in the Meatpacking District (Yelp also shows an earlier 9 9th Ave location marked closed, indicating this is the current spot). It has the classic bistro draw of a well-known name and a busy, high-traffic neighborhood, which reviewers say translates into real walk-in waits at times.
Reports on getting a table are mixed: one Yelp reviewer described roughly a 50-minute wait on a December 25th visit, while another simply noted 'No resies so prepare to wait but worth it.' At the same time, Pastis is listed on Resy for bookings, so reservation availability may depend on time, day, or party size — checking Resy or calling ahead is the safer bet, especially given the late-night Friday/Saturday hours (open until midnight).
Patterns as reported by press and regulars — not measured by damnlines.
damnlines does not have a live camera at Pastis yet, so there's no real-time wait count for it here. Reported guidance is mixed: one Yelp reviewer described a roughly 50-minute wait on a December 25th visit, while another reviewer noted 'No resies so prepare to wait but worth it,' suggesting walk-in waits do happen. Booking ahead via Resy, where Pastis is listed, may reduce or avoid the wait.
It's not entirely consistent from what we've found: Pastis has an active reservation listing on Resy, but at least one Yelp review described it as effectively walk-in with no reservations available ('no resies'). Policy may vary by time, day, or party size, so it's worth checking Resy directly or calling ahead to confirm.
Per Yelp, Pastis is open Monday-Thursday 8:00am-11:00pm, Friday 8:00am-midnight, Saturday 10:00am-midnight, and Sunday 10:00am-11:00pm.
Pastis is at 52 Gansevoort St in the Meatpacking District, Manhattan. Note that Yelp also shows an earlier Pastis location at 9 9th Ave marked as closed, so this Gansevoort St address is the current, operating one.
