It is not a Resy problem. It is a two-week window.
Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson opened Frenchette on TriBeCa's West Broadway in 2018 and pulled a Michelin star within a year. The bistro menu runs from steak frites to skate à la grenobloise; the dining room seats about sixty.
Resy opens two weeks ahead. The bar (long zinc, seats about fifteen) takes walk-ins for the full menu. Le Rock and Le Veau d'Or (the team's other rooms) are the related doors.

How do I get a reservation at Frenchette?
Name Frenchette and the night you want. We book it on your account the instant a table opens or a cancellation appears, and you only pay if we actually get it.
Why is Frenchette so hard to book?
Frenchette is one of the most in-demand tables in TriBeCa. Prime-time seats are claimed within seconds of release, and many never reach the public at all, so refreshing on your own rarely works.
When do Frenchette reservations open up?
Frenchette releases tables on a set schedule, and seats also reappear when other guests cancel. We watch both around the clock and move the instant one opens, so you never have to refresh at midnight.
How much does it cost to book Frenchette through The Elusive List?
One flat fee, charged only when we confirm your table. No table, no charge. Sign in to see the exact fee for Frenchette.
