NYers are so desperate for this pizza, theyre hiring TaskRabbits to wait in line

If you want a table at Lucali, you’ve got to wait — or hire someone to do it for you.The acclaimed Carroll Gardens pizzeria — which is cash-only, BYOB, doesn’t take reservations and is beloved by celebs such as Jay-Z and Beyonce — tops the list of a recent report from TaskRabbit on the most popular restaurants in the city for hiring Taskers to wait for a table.

After Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce dined there in September, requests for line-waiters at the pizza hotspot went up 30%, according to a TaskRabbit spokesperson.“The most popular request by far is for reservations at Lucali,” a Tasker who goes by Tanya B on the platform told The Post.

She charges $20 an hour to line up and has waited as long as three hours at the pizzeria.“I’ve been hired multiple times to wait there,” added another Tasker, Collins B, who says his average Lucali job lasts three hours.

Lesa Raab, a 42-year-old NYC publicist, hired a Tasker from TaskRabbit to queue for her at Lucali last month.She wanted a four-top table at 6:30 p.m.

The Tasker waited two hours, charged her $65, and Raab said, “he got us exactly that.”In the past Raab tried to wait in line herself and failed.“My boyfriend and I previously tried to go in the spring on a day we were able to log off work a bit early, and even though we showed up and waited in line for almost an hour, we weren’t able to get a table,” she said.

“We noticed that several of the people must be paid line waiters, and we decided then that when we tried it again, that would be our move.” She now recommends this trick to all her friends.“I have referred the gentleman who waited for us so they can do the same,” she said. (The Post has reached out to Lucali for comment)The other restaurants in the top 5 for TaskRabbit hires are Kisa, a Korean diner on the Lower East Side; Double Chicken Please, a downtown cocktail bar serving eclectic chicken sandwiches; the Italian classic Emilio’s Ballato on Houston and the ...
