Our latest reading, dated 19 October 2026, showed a bookable table for two on 7% of the dates in Kasama's booking window, and 0% for four, across 43,266 checks.
Treat that as an early reading. Chicago joined our tracker in late September 2026 and Kasama was added at the end of that month, so the figure rests on the first few days of checks rather than months of history, and it will move as checks accumulate. We track 68 Chicago restaurants in total.
Kasama holds two MICHELIN stars in the current Chicago guide. Chefs Tim Flores and Genie Kwon won the James Beard Foundation's Best Chef: Great Lakes award in 2023, for Kasama.

Kasama releases reservations 42 days ahead at noon, and its calendar runs about 30 days deep in our checks. At the last check a table for two was bookable on 7% 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 43,266 checks, Kasama has shown a bookable table for two on 7% of dates, though 30% of dates opened at some point.
