No. SnagRes watches the calendar and alerts you by email or text the moment a seat appears. You book it yourself, in your own account, at the restaurant's own price. We never hold, resell or charge per reservation.
On the nights it serves, no. Across 4,142 availability checks, ICCA has shown a bookable seat for two on 77% of the dates in its window, and the same for a party of four. The average hides a short week: a two-top has shown on 100% of the Fridays we have checked, and Wednesday has never shown one, which is a closed day rather than a hard one. When ICCA is open, it is nearly always open.
Over the whole record, 75% of dates opened at some point, and we have recorded 1 release events. A Tock omakase counter keeps a simple calendar.
Open rate, party of two: 77%. Party of four: 70%.
Friday, party of two: 100% of checks. Wednesday: 0%.
ICCA books on Tock, with a calendar about a month deep. We have not measured a single release hour from the record, so we do not publish one. Tock rooms usually sell reservations as prepaid tickets, so the cancellation route is thin, but with three dates in four open it rarely matters.
Lunch and the two evening sittings. The seating we have seen open most often is 5:30 PM, 33% of recorded openings fell in the 7:00 to 8:30 PM window and 42% before 6 PM, across a lunch service that starts at 12:30 PM. Nothing has opened at 9 PM or later.
Before 6 PM: 42%. Prime time: 33%. 9 PM or later: 0%.
Open Tock and book it; on a Friday it is yours this week at either sitting, and lunch is the surest of all. For a Saturday that has filled, let something watch the date. Party size makes no difference; two and four sit at the same 77%.
Try Friday. 100% of Fridays have shown a seat for two.
Lunch and 5:30 PM are the seats that are usually there.
For a filled night, watch it.
No, and that is deliberate. SnagRes watches ICCA on Tock around the clock and tells you the moment a seat appears, by email or text. You book it yourself, in your own 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 Tribeca omakase is 100% open on a Friday and closed on Wednesdays, because nothing is watching it closely enough to count.
