damnlines hasn't pointed a lens at The Fly yet. The most-wanted lines get a camera first.
The Fly is walk-in only, and The Infatuation's review says the restaurant 'mostly saves room for walk-ins' at both its tables and bar, meaning there's usually no way to guarantee a seat ahead of time. One visitor cited in the review called the wait time 'ridiculous,' suggesting the walk-in system can produce real backups at busy hours.
Despite that, The Infatuation notes it's 'never too hard to get a table' overall, and recommends ordering a drink at the bar while you wait for a table to open up. For larger groups, The Fly offers a workaround: parties of 8 to 20 can reserve a fixed-price $45-per-person chicken dinner, per The Infatuation.
