How hard is it to get a table at Soban?

18% of the open slots recorded at Soban fall between 7:00 and 8:30 PM, out of 1,804,861 observed, so prime time genuinely does surface here.

72% 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 11:00 AM to 8:30 PM, and the single slot that opens most often is 8:30 PM.

We have never once seen a Tuesday come open, which usually means Soban 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 Soban?

  1. Check what is open at Soban 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. 72% of what opens at Soban 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 Soban on SnagRes and you get an email the moment a table appears, with a link straight to Resy.

Frequently asked questions about booking Soban

How hard is it to get a reservation at Soban?
At the last check, 84% of the 30-day booking window had a table open for two at Soban. About 18% of open slots land between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. SnagRes rechecks Resy throughout the day and alerts you when that changes.
What time can you actually get a table at Soban?
The open times recorded at Soban run from 11:00 AM to 8:30 PM, and 8:30 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 Soban?
Two and four sit close together at Soban in our data, 84% of the window open for two against 84% 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.
Is Soban open on Tuesday?
We have never recorded an open table at Soban on a Tuesday, which normally indicates a closing day rather than a full book.
What time do Soban reservations open?
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. We have not yet measured a fixed drop time for Soban, so we do not claim one. SnagRes rechecks it throughout the day for cancellations and off-schedule drops.
How far ahead does Soban release tables?
The furthest-out date we have seen bookable at Soban was 31 days ahead, so its window runs roughly that far. New dates land at the far edge and cancellations surface in between, which is why watching beats checking once.
Which booking platform does Soban use?
Soban 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 rechecks Resy for Soban throughout the day and alerts you when a table opens.
Can you walk in at Soban?
SnagRes tracks reservations rather than walk-ins, so we cannot see a live bar or counter count at Soban. 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 Soban and we will email 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 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 Soban for me?
No. SnagRes tells you the moment a table opens at Soban 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.
