The Infatuation's 'Where To Go When You've Eaten Everywhere In Williamsburg' guide advises calling Testo 30 minutes before arriving, noting 'there will be a reserved sign on one of the butcher paper-topped tables when you arrive' — an informal call-ahead system rather than a formal reservation platform.
The guide frames this as part of what makes the restaurant feel like a true neighborhood spot, alongside its affordable wine list and generous pasta portions, implying tables fill up without advance notice.
