Resys are only available online at 10 a.m. eight days in advance. They're typically gone in 3 seconds. 3. Talula's Table, Kennett Square, Pennsylvania -- You need to book 365 days in advance for the restaurant's single table of 12. 4. French Laundry, Yountville, California -- Thomas Keller's restaurant is considered the best in the country; it helps to know someone in the food industry to get in. 5. Schwa, Chicago -- There are just 26 seats. Good luck. Honorable Mentions: - Minibar, Washington, D.C. -- Just a dozen seats are available any given night. - Waverly Inn, New York -- It helps to know Vanity Fair Editor Graydon Carter. - Alinea, Chicago -- Thomas Keller protege Grant Achatz's restaurant is considered tops in the country on any list that doesn't give French Laundry that honor. Molecular gastronomy at its best. Like no dining experience you'll ever have. - Per Se, New York -- Four stars in the Time Warner Center, but now with a new a la carte area. Considerably easier these days, if you can afford it.
