Bungalow is a modern Indian restaurant in Manhattan's East Village that has developed a reputation as one of the neighborhood's hardest reservations, with a small dining room and heavy demand driving both a competitive booking process and a walk-in line before dinner service.
Reservations reportedly open 20 days ahead at 11am every day except Tuesdays and are said to fill within a couple of minutes, which pushes many hopeful diners toward walking in instead. Guests without a reservation reportedly arrive well before the 5pm dinner opening — some accounts mention lining up as early as 3:30pm — with weekend nights (Thursday-Saturday) described as the toughest to get into without planning ahead.

Walk-ins: Per the Resy blog, walk-ins are accepted around 5 or 5:30 p.m. at opening, though availability isn't guaranteed; there's also a first-come, first-served bar/lounge area with 26 seats (including 8 high-tops) for walk-ins and those waiting.
