It is tight. A table for two was open on 20% of dates at our reading of 19 October 2026, but 35% of dates had a seat open at some point. Los Angeles joined our tracker in late September 2026, so this is early data.

Not far. Kusano publishes no release time, and in our checks it took bookings about 9 days ahead. A date further out than that is not on sale yet.
It is one of the tighter rooms we watch. At our reading of 19 October 2026, a table for two was open on 20% of dates in the window. Over the whole period, though, 35% of dates had a seat open up at some point. That figure comes from 54,269 checks. It has not opened a table on Tuesdays in our checks, which usually means it is closed then.
Seats do come free. They just do not stay free for long.
One caveat. We started tracking Los Angeles in late September 2026, so these numbers cover a few weeks, not a full season. We follow 72 restaurants there.
By weekday, the open rate ran 33% on Sunday against 21% on Monday. The seat we saw most often was at 5:30 PM, so start there if your plans are flexible.
With a window this short, cancellations are the main way in after a date fills. SnagRes checks Kusano on Resy around the clock and texts or emails you as soon as a seat opens on your date.
We do not book seats, hold them or resell them. When the alert comes, you book on Resy yourself.

Kusano releases reservations 10 days ahead at midnight, and its calendar runs about 30 days deep in our checks. At the last check a table for two was bookable on 20% 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 54,269 checks, Kusano has shown a bookable table for two on 20% of dates, though 35% of dates opened at some point. We have recorded 19 release events there. 51% of the openings we have seen were between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. The seats you can actually get are the ones that come back when someone cancels, which is why an alert on the date beats refreshing.
Kusano's calendar reaches 1 November on Thursday, 22 October at midnight, and each later date follows the same rule: 10 days ahead at midnight. Hours are local to the restaurant.
