In the photo studio at Gourmet magazine, pastry chef Sam Mason recently showed off several dishes from his yet-to-be-named SoHo restaurant. Most fall previews listed it as opening this month, but Mr. Mason explained, “It takes a lot longer to build a restaurant than I thought.” His restaurant is now scheduled to open next year, which leaves plenty of time to come up with a name. Here’s a list of new places, all with names, reservation lines, and opening dates this month. But delays are often on the menu when it comes to new restaurants, so be sure to call ahead.

The Russian Tea Room emerges in its third incarnation with a complete restoration of the elaborate interior. Chef Gary Robbins serves modern continental cuisine with Russian influence seven days a week. It’s dinner only to start, with breakfast, lunch, and tea coming soon. 150 W. 57th St., between Sixth and Seventh avenues, 212-581-7100. Opens this Friday.
