Resy. Its release rule is published on its own Resy listing.
At our latest reading (19 October 2026), The Benjamin showed a table for two on 23% of the dates in its window, and 23% for four, from 53,675 checks. Los Angeles joined our tracker in late September 2026, so this is an early figure and will move as checks accumulate.
The Resy rule covers groups of six or fewer. For seven or more, ask the restaurant directly.
Yes. SnagRes checks The Benjamin's calendar continuously and texts or emails you the moment a table opens on a date you picked. It never books, holds or resells a table: you book it yourself with the restaurant.
The Benjamin's own Resy listing says: "Reservations open 7 days prior to the date at 9am PST for groups of 6 or less."
So the window is one week and it rolls. Each morning at 9 a.m. Pacific, one more date a week out becomes bookable.
The Resy rule covers groups of six or fewer. The listing does not say how larger parties are handled, so for seven or more, ask the restaurant directly. It lists a phone number, (323) 888-9000.
Our latest reading, dated 19 October 2026, found a bookable table for two on 23% of the dates in The Benjamin's booking window, and 23% for four, across 53,675 checks.
Treat that as an early reading. Los Angeles joined our tracker in late September 2026, so the figure rests on a small number of checks rather than months of history, and it will move as more accumulate. We track 72 Los Angeles restaurants in total.
