I Sodi is one of the tough ones, and its calendar was fully booked when we last looked. That is normal here, and it is not the end of the story: most people who eat at I Sodi get in on a cancellation, which can appear at any hour and usually goes within minutes. We watch Resy continuously and email you the moment one turns up, so you can stop refreshing and still be first.

How hard is it to get a table at I Sodi?

I Sodi is hard to book by measurement, not reputation: at the last check, 0% of its 30-day booking window had a table open for two, and SnagRes has run 76,471 calendar checks on this room to date. What frees up here is cancellations, which land at no set hour and go in minutes, so an alert beats a refresh habit.

Worth knowing before you set your heart on 8pm: across 1,495 open slots we have recorded at I Sodi, none were between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. The tables that do come free are earlier or later, so that is where to aim.

100% of what opens up here is before 6:00 PM, so an early dinner is your best route in.

The times we see open run from 11:30 AM to 5:15 PM, and the single slot that opens most often is 4:30 PM.

We have never once seen a Thursday come open, which usually means I Sodi is closed then rather than simply full.

Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time.

What is the best way to book I Sodi?

  1. Check what is open at I Sodi right now. Start from the live calendar on this page rather than from Resy. It shows every date in the 30-day window with its current status, so you can see at a glance whether anything is bookable before you spend time on the platform.
  2. Take the early seating. 100% of what opens at I Sodi is before 6:00 PM. Asking for 7:30 filters out most of the inventory that actually exists.
  3. Set an alert instead of refreshing. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. Cancellations arrive on no schedule at all, which is why refreshing by hand does not work. Star I Sodi on SnagRes and you get an email the moment a table appears, with a link straight to Resy.

Frequently asked questions about booking I Sodi

How hard is it to get a reservation at I Sodi?
At the last check, 0% of the 30-day booking window had a table open for two at I Sodi, which puts it among the harder rooms we track. We have never observed a 7:00 to 8:30 PM slot open here. SnagRes checks Resy continuously and emails you when that changes.
What time can you actually get a table at I Sodi?
The open times recorded at I Sodi run from 11:30 AM to 5:15 PM, and 4:30 PM is the slot that comes open most often. These are the times left available, not the restaurant's full service hours.
What is the best party size to book I Sodi?
Two and four book about equally at I Sodi in our data, 0% of the window open for two against 3% for four, so party size is not the lever here. Shifting the night or the seating time moves availability more.
Is I Sodi open on Thursday?
We have never recorded an open table at I Sodi on a Thursday, which normally indicates a closing day rather than a full book.
What time do I Sodi reservations open?
I Sodi releases reservations 13 days ahead, at 10:00 AM. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. SnagRes also watches continuously, so cancellations arriving off-schedule are caught the same as scheduled drops.
How far ahead does I Sodi release tables?
I Sodi releases reservations 13 days ahead, at 10:00 AM. A new date appears at the far edge of that window each cycle, and cancellations can surface at any point in between.
Which booking platform does I Sodi use?
I Sodi takes reservations on Resy. Resy restaurants usually work on a rolling window: one new day appears at the far edge of the calendar each night, and cancellations return tables at no fixed time. SnagRes watches Resy for I Sodi continuously and emails you the moment a table opens.
Why is it so hard to get into I Sodi?
Demand outruns the room, and the desirable hours never come back: across 1,495 open slots we have recorded at I Sodi, not one fell between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. Only 0% of its 30-day window was bookable for two at the last check. The tables that do free up are earlier, later, or cancellations.
Can you walk in at I Sodi?
SnagRes tracks reservations rather than walk-ins, so we cannot see a live bar count. With only 0% of the booking window open at the last check, I Sodi is not a dependable walk-in, and a reservation is the surer route. Some rooms keep a few bar or counter seats for walk-ins, so it is worth calling I Sodi to confirm; otherwise star it and let an alert catch a cancellation.
Is using a reservation alert legal?
Yes. SnagRes only notifies you when a table opens; the booking itself is an ordinary reservation you make yourself on Resy, under your own name. It does not resell tables, run bots to hold them, or automate the booking, so it does not cross the lines a resale or auto-booking service does.
Does SnagRes book I Sodi for me?
No. SnagRes tells you the moment a table opens at I Sodi and links you straight to Resy with the date prefilled, then you complete the reservation yourself. It never logs into your account and never books on your behalf, which is what keeps your account in good standing.
