Eat at the bar. There's usually more going on and it's much less awkward. Even better is you won't need a reservation and the waiter isn't bummed that the table is half empty.

I travel for a living, M-TH, and I've taken up shop at the bar on numerous occasions at nice restaurants.

That is what they are there for. Just don't go in there looking homeless and you'll be well received.

This one of the things I learnt from business travel; sitting at the bar means you can talk to the waitstaff plus everyone else waiting for tables, you'll end up feeling a lot less lonely than sitting alone at a table.
