I was surprised it was full at 5:30 on a week day. We waited 10 min for a party of 4. By 6:30 the crowd had already diminished.
I never needed reservations but I did have to wait. But I sat at the bar, had a glass of wine and I had a table before I finished my drink.
Weekends would be a good idea but weekdays no.
It is best to make reservations! You can go without and will probably have to wait
