It's notoriously difficult to eat at Ralph Lauren's swanky Midtown Manhattan bar.

It's known to be "casual yet refined" — the Polo Bar's classic burger costs $28.

Misi, renowned chef Missy Robbins' restaurant, serves $30 "out-of-this-world pasta" in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

The Italian spot opened in 2018 with varied critical reception but walk-in wait times are known to exceed 90 minutes.

Chef Erik Ramirez' West Village Peruvian-Japanese fusion restaurant opened this past fall. As of now, the next available reservation for a party of two is at 10 p.m. on a Sunday at the beginning of March.

Main dishes ranging from clams, fish, duck sausage, and beef heart cost around $25.

Don Angie is an Italian restaurant helmed by a husband-and-wife chef team in the West Village.
