In one of our busiest days of the year with the full throttle nature of pushing out 100 BYO Turkeys and magnified by the perfect storm of everyone bringing their out-of-town guests, Sun Wah BBQ’s available reservations have been fully booked for well over a week. What tables we’ve set aside for unreserved walk-in patrons will strictly be on a first-come, first-served basis.
