68% of its dates had a table open up at some point.
Last updated . Source: SnagRes availability record, 470,152 checks of Clemente Bar through 19 October 2026. How we measure. Open dataset.
Pick a Tuesday and take a late seat: Tuesday shows a two-top 29% of the time and 10:30 PM opens most often. For a Saturday, at 9%, watch the week and catch a cancellation. It books on Resy.
We have not measured a single release hour. Openings are spread through the month-long window rather than dropping at one time of day.
Tuesday, at 29% of checks for a table for two. Saturday is 9%.
Slightly. 3% of dates for four against 17% for two.
No. SnagRes watches the calendar and alerts you by email or text the moment a table appears. You book it yourself, in your own account, at the restaurant's own price. We never hold, resell or charge per reservation.
Less than its address suggests. Across 470,152 availability checks, Clemente Bar has shown a bookable table for two on 17% of the dates in its window and a table for four on 3%. Over the whole record, 68% of the dates we have watched opened at some point, which for a bar upstairs at Eleven Madison Park is a calendar with real give in it.
The split by night is what to use. A two-top has shown on 29% of the Tuesdays we have checked and 9% of Saturdays. Same room, same bar, a different order of magnitude.
Open rate, party of two: 17%. Party of four: 3%.
Dates that opened at some point in our record: 68%.
Easiest night: Tuesday 29%. Hardest: Saturday 9%.
Clemente Bar books on Resy, with a calendar about a month deep. We have not been able to pin a single release hour from the record, so we do not publish one; what we have seen is 178 release events, dates going from closed to open under our watch, spread across the window rather than clustered at one time of day.
That shape is what a bar calendar looks like: tables come and go through the evening as parties shift, rather than dropping once a day in a block.
Release events recorded: 178, spread through the window.
Late. The slot we have seen open most often is 10:30 PM, and 59% of recorded openings fell at 9 PM or later. Openings run all the way from 5:00 PM to 11:30 PM, the latest of any room we track in Flatiron, with 19% before 6 PM and 13% in the 7:00 to 8:30 PM window.
For a cocktail bar that is the right shape. The 9:30 and later seats are the ones the room has to give, and a late drink upstairs is the point.
9 PM or later: 59%. Prime time: 13%. Before 6 PM: 19%.
Pick a Tuesday and take a late seat, and this is a table you can book this week. For a Saturday, watch it and take the cancellation: the record shows the room gives dates back regularly, and a party of four does a little better than two, 3% against 17%, so bring people if you can.
Try Tuesday. 29% of Tuesdays have shown a two-top.
Ask for 10:30 PM or later.
For a Saturday, watch it rather than search it.
No, and that is deliberate. SnagRes watches Clemente Bar on Resy around the clock and tells you the moment a table appears, by email or text. You book it yourself, in your own Resy account, at the restaurant's own price. Nothing is reserved, held or resold on your behalf, which is the line New York's 2024 reservation law draws and the line we stay on the right side of.
Because you cannot say any of the above about a directory. SnagRes tracks 284 restaurants across New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Chicago, with 61,530,416 logged availability checks between the rooms with a full record. Nothing watching tens of thousands of restaurants can tell you that one Flatiron bar opens 29% of its Tuesdays and 9% of its Saturdays, because nothing is watching it closely enough to count.

Clemente Bar's calendar runs about 30 days deep. At the last check a table for two was bookable on 17% of the dates in that window, so the release itself is the one real chance, and the rest come back as cancellations.
Because the tables that exist are gone at the drop. Across 470,152 checks, Clemente Bar has shown a bookable table for two on 17% of dates, though 68% of dates opened at some point. We have recorded 178 release events there. 13% of the openings we have seen were between 7:00 and 8:30 PM.
