"Walking into Sunny’s on a Saturday night feels like one of those scenes in early 2000s romantic dramedies where the protagonist (glasses recently removed for the very first time) walks down a flight of stairs and the entire room stops. You’re coming here to see-and-be-seen—emphasis on the seen. Sunny’s delivers the kind of gloriously fun dinner that reminds you there is still so much joy in your future, and it starts right now, with a sip of a filthy gin martini, a bite of medium-rare ribeye, and flirty eye contact with the somewhat famous person sitting across the room. Sunny’s releases reservations 30 days in advance. But if you missed that window, seats at their indoor bar are held for walk-ins. It's a small bar, but the full menu is available there. You might want to arrive 15 minutes before they open at 5:30pm to be safe. Members of our team have also successfully walked in without a reservation, put their name on the list, and gotten a table after about 30 minutes. Worst case, you can hang out at the outdoor bar, where they offer snacks and steak frites." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
