RESERVATIONS LunÁtico does not accept reservations. If you are a party of three or more, and wish to see the live music, we recommend arriving at least 45 minutes prior. Seats are offered on a first come-first serve basis so please ensure that your entire party is present.
DRINK/FOOD MINIMUM Although LunÁtico does not enforce a specific drink/food minimum, it is required that each member of your party partake of our offerings throughout your visit.
TABLE TIME LIMITS LunÁtico is a small space that hosts large talent. Some nights we experience more demand than we can gracefully accommodate. If there is a line for the second set, your server may close out your check to make way for waiting patrons. The turning of tables is critical to the sustainability of our business. We appreciate your undertsanding.
BAND DONATIONS We strongly recommend a minimum $10 (cash) contribution per person for the live music.
LIVE MUSIC ETIQUETTE Please keep the conversation to a whisper during the performance. Most of the people in the room wish to hear the music. Speaking at full volume impedes the transcendence of others.
COMMUNAL SEATING Due to space limitations, some seating at LunÁtico is communal. You can expect our host to fill every available seat as the music begins. If you wind up making new friends, you won’t be the first.
OPENING TABS We kindly request a credit card to open your tab upon ordering. This is due to the oft-played game of "musical chairs" during the live music. When closing your check, you may still pay by cash if you wish.
ORDERING AT THE BAR During our busier hours, our bartenders do not take orders. Please place your order with your server.
PETS Animals, including emotional support animals, are not permitted as per the New York City Department of Health & Mental Hygiene. The Americans With Disabilities Act does allow us to permit service animals which include any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability.
MINORS Although LunÁtico is not a 21-and-over establishment, if you are bringing children, we trust that you know whether they can adapt to an adult environment which includes music listeners, antique knick knacks, and old furniture. Ordering from our menu and contributing a donation for the live music is required of all who attend.
BACK PATIO Our back patio closes promptly at 8:45pm out of respect to our neighbors during the live music. We do not seat parties on the back patio after 7:45pm.
LAPTOPS Laptops are permitted during Happy Hour only.
LARGE PARTIES Parties of four or more may be subject to a 20% automatic service charge.
TIPPING Welcome! It is customary to leave a gratuity when patronizing restaurants and bars in the United States. The common standard is 20% of your total bill (pre-tax).
