We take reservations starting one week in advance of your desired date--seven days in advance, starting at midnight online and at 11 a.m. over the phone. And with Broadway's staggered start times, things get tricky, so if your desired time is unavailable online, please give us a call; we hold a certain number of tables for phone reservations only. For parties of six or more, please call the restaurant directly.Because of staggered theater times we can only guarantee reservations made online for one-and-a-half hours for parties of two, and two hours for parties of three or more. Apologies, but we don't reserve tables "only for drinks."For reservations after theater, please check your show's running time on our website.Since 1965, Joe Allen has been a quintessential New York restaurant serving a classic American menu in the heart of the Theater District.

We were very happy with our experience at Bond 45. We were there for a special occasion and were seated at the Queen’s Corner (named and themed for Six the Musical) downstairs, which was such a delightful surprise. The staff at the door were friendly and greeted us warmly. Our server was wonderful and also provided very helpful information about the menu. The food was delicious, including the drinks and dessert. We’ll definitely be back!
