"How Far In Advance Should You Book? Four weeks, but check same-day availability too. We used to spend a few hours every week fielding questions on how to get into Lilia. The Williamsburg restaurant’s reservations page was perpetually barren. Then, in the past year, something strange happened. We started seeing tables available online—mostly for dates four weeks out, but same-day ones as well. Eat at 5:15pm if you have to. The signature grilled clams and honey-drizzled agnolotti are worth it." - bryan kim
