How to get a reservation at Chez Noir

How to book Chez Noir

1. 1

   Book directly on OpenTable

   Chez Noir takes reservations on OpenTable. Start there: pick your party size and date, and book any time that works. OpenTable lists it as Fine Dining, dress code: smart casual.

2. 2

   Be flexible on the night and time

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

3. 3

   Watch for cancellations

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

4. 4

   Let TableWatch watch for you

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