How to get a reservation at Café Boulud

How to book Café Boulud

1. 1

   Book directly on Resy

   Café Boulud takes reservations on Resy. Start there: pick your party size and date, and book any time that works.

2. 2

   Be flexible on the night and time

   Prime-time weekend tables at Café Boulud go first. Weeknights, early seatings and late seatings are the easiest to find.

3. 3

   Watch for cancellations

   When Café Boulud shows nothing open, plans still change. Tables come back when other diners cancel, often a day or two ahead, and they go fast.

   Let TableWatch watch for you

   Set the nights, time window and party size in the TableWatch app. We check Resy around the clock and push you the moment a matching table opens. You book it on Resy in your own account.
