Reservations are a smart move, but sometimes we forget to book one. So rather than desperately pouring through an app while slumped on the couch, head to one of the easy-to-get-into places on this guide instead. Some only take walk-ins, others reserve seats for drop-ins, and a few just have plenty of space. Can we guarantee they’ll all have an open table for you? We can’t. But we can tell you these places will provide  you a memorable meal when there’s nowhere else to turn.
