Jua books on Resy, and a new date appears at midnight, 21 days ahead. The window rolls forward one night at a time. With 327 recorded release events, the cancellation flow here is unusually strong for a counter, and because the sittings are fixed, a cancellation is a seat at the seating time rather than at some odd hour.
Release time: midnight, one new date each night, 21 days out.
At the two sittings, and mostly the later one. Recorded openings run from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM, and 59% of them fell in the 7:00 to 8:30 PM window, where 8:30 PM, the seating we have seen open most often, sits. Nothing before 6 PM, nothing after 9. When a seat comes back at Jua, it is a seat at the hour most people wanted.
Prime time: 59%. Before 6 PM: 0%. 9 PM or later: 0%.
Book a Thursday, which at 57% is a counter you can sit at this week. For a Friday or Saturday, be on Resy at midnight three weeks ahead with your card saved, or watch the date and be told when a seat comes back; with 327 recorded openings, it does. Come as two; a four-top shows on 33% of dates against 40%.

No, and that is deliberate. SnagRes watches Jua on Resy around the clock and tells you the moment a seat 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 counter gives back 59% of its seats at prime time and opens 57% of its Thursdays, because nothing is watching it closely enough to count.
