The New Black

Just a week after opening, and already the weekday waits at Nopalito are topping the hour plateau.

But ssshh, there's a way to circumvent that no-reservation policy:

"They will, however, add your name to a list if you call ahead, a boon when the wait on a rainy Wednesday night at 8 p.m. stumbles into the one plus hour territory ... That way you can just slip into seats at one of the communal tables and begin snacking immediately on complimentary spicy fried chickpeas while those waiting on the (covered, heated) patio look on with envy."
