What is the best way to book Rich Table?
- Check what is open at Rich Table right now. Start from the live calendar on this page rather than from OpenTable. 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.
- Aim at a Sunday. Sundays are the softest night on Rich Table's calendar in our data, open 84% of the times we checked, against 50% on Tuesdays. Shifting the day is usually worth more than shifting the month.
- Widen your time to include 9:45 PM. 9:45 PM is the slot that opens most often at Rich Table. The full range we see open runs 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
- Set an alert instead of refreshing. On OpenTable each restaurant sets its own booking window, and what moves inside it is the near term, as people cancel and rebook. Cancellations arrive on no schedule at all, which is why refreshing by hand does not work. Star Rich Table on SnagRes and you get an alert the moment a table appears, with a link straight to OpenTable.

- What is the best party size to book Rich Table?
- Two and four sit close together at Rich Table in our data, 83% of the window open for two against 77% for four, a gap too small to plan around, so party size is not the lever here. Shifting the night or the seating time moves availability more.
- What time do Rich Table reservations open?
- Rich Table releases reservations 30 days ahead. We have not yet pinned the exact hour. On OpenTable each restaurant sets its own booking window, and this one runs 30 days. What moves inside it is the near term, as people cancel and rebook. SnagRes rechecks throughout the day rather than relying on one fixed hour.
- How far ahead does Rich Table release tables?
- Rich Table releases reservations 30 days ahead. 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 Rich Table use?
- Rich Table takes reservations on OpenTable. On OpenTable each restaurant sets its own booking window, and this one runs 30 days. What moves inside it is the near term, as people cancel and rebook. SnagRes rechecks OpenTable for Rich Table throughout the day and alerts you when a table opens.
- Can you walk in at Rich Table?
- SnagRes tracks reservations rather than walk-ins, so we cannot see a live bar or counter count at Rich Table. Many rooms do hold a few seats for walk-ins, often early or at the bar, so it is worth calling ahead. If you would rather lock in a table, star Rich Table and we will alert you the moment a reservation opens.
- 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 OpenTable, 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 Rich Table for me?
- No. SnagRes tells you the moment a table opens at Rich Table and links you straight to OpenTable 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.
