Restaurant Reservations
It is definitely recommended to book your restaurant reservations a few days in advance at any upscale dining location. With capacity restrictions, restaurants fill up quickly.
A few places, such as Eventide and Central Provisions do not take advance reservations, but you can get added to their list, enjoy a few cocktails at a neighboring bar, and receive a text when your table is ready.
