# When Do Fairfax Reservations Open?

Fairfax is an American restaurant in West Village, New York ($$) that takes reservations on OpenTable.

On DinnerElite's booking-window estimate, tables at Fairfax are claimed an average of 9 days before the reservation date. That estimate comes from the restaurant's published release window where it states one, and is modeled from price tier and neighborhood where it does not.

## When do reservations open?

Fairfax publishes this itself: reservations open 2 weeks ahead (walk-ins always welcome), per its restaurant's own site. The lead-time figure above is DinnerElite's estimate, not the restaurant's.

## Good to know before you book

Fairfax opens reservations two weeks out on OpenTable and always welcomes walk-ins, per its site, with bar seats and a few tables held back for them. The all-day format is the real loophole: weekday breakfast starts at 9:30 AM, and morning and afternoon visits skip the dinner competition entirely.

## How to get in

Book the moment the reservation window opens on OpenTable, or set a free DinnerElite alert: it watches Fairfax around the clock and emails you the instant a matching table opens, whether from a fresh release or a cancellation. DinnerElite sends alerts and never books automatically.
