Most Brooklyn Heights restaurants in the DinnerElite catalog book through Resy, which releases tables on a rolling window, restaurant by restaurant. The exact drop time matters more than luck: prime slots go within minutes at the toughest rooms. Check each restaurant's drop-time guide above for its specific window, or add it to your watchlist and let the alert do the timing.
What if every table is gone?
