Do you need to make a reservation for a large party? I've tried calling several times, left messages and no one has called me back.

If you want to avoid a long wait time for seating a large party then go on a Sunday around evening time. It's not busy or crowded at that time.

The last time I went the host said they dont take reservations for large parties. And we ended up waiting for almost 2 hours to get seated when we got there.
