Tried to get into Corton the 27th at 6pm (on the 17th) and it was booked, its hot in this down time, I used Open Table, I just tried again for 3/5 and no go, they gave an option check a month out and it came back, no table's anytime in the next 30 days......rumor is they are being sold out by some Tribeca hotel.....I have friends whom will help one day, I am in no rush as I feel spring/summer are the best time to eat anywhere in NYC due to veggie heaven....
This place I think is gonna rock in the tough time too...not open yet....

George Mendes, whose resume includes Bouley and Wallse, will have a menu with a Portuguese accent, with dishes like sardines and Madeira raisins, and pork chop with clams and kale. He has enlisted Stephanie Goto, who worked on Morimoto and Corton, to design sleek, intimate spaces for the narrow room with a mezzanine. -- Florence Fabricant
