We booked a party of 6 and had 9 show up at Cardero's a few weeks back. A polite request and non-stop drink orders made the Manager very happy.

Contingency
Whether or not I got a spot for Friday night's dinner {I got one.}, I opted to visit Craft Beer Market anyhow.
I'm currently at the north curved end of the center bar. A keen-eyed person could see someone sitting promoting the "World Of Beer" of Evanston(!), IL. on a t-shirt, and / or a yellow rubber duck with a plug for Lufthansa thereupon.
It is 'hoppy hour' ($5 .4L drafts) for another 54 minutes.

I'm currently on AC 569 from SFO. Everything looks on time (or early), but it'll likely be 1945 at the earliest before I can get there.
