What is the best way to book Somssi?
- Check what is open at Somssi 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.
- Widen your time to include 9:30 PM. 9:30 PM is the slot that opens most often at Somssi. The full range we see open runs 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM.
- 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 Somssi on SnagRes and you get an alert the moment a table appears, with a link straight to Resy.

Frequently asked questions about booking Somssi

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 Somssi?
- The open times recorded at Somssi run from 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM, and 9:30 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 Somssi?
- Two and four sit close together at Somssi in our data, 7% of the window open for two against 13% 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 Somssi open on Sunday?
- We have never recorded an open table at Somssi on a Sunday, which normally indicates a closing day rather than a full book.
- What time do Somssi reservations open?
- Somssi releases reservations 14 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 rechecks throughout the day for cancellations and off-schedule drops.
- How far ahead does Somssi release tables?
- Somssi releases reservations 14 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 Somssi use?
- Somssi 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 Somssi throughout the day and alerts you when a table opens.
- Why is it so hard to get into Somssi?
- 7% of Somssi's 30-day booking window was bookable for two at the last check, and 18% of the slots that open fall between 7:00 and 8:30 PM. Demand is the reason, not a lack of tables: 43% of its dates had a table open up at some point, mostly as cancellations, which is why repeated checks beat refreshing at a fixed hour.
- Can you walk in at Somssi?
- SnagRes tracks reservations rather than walk-ins, so we cannot see a live bar count. Somssi is busy enough that a walk-in is a gamble, but many rooms like it keep a few bar or counter seats, so it is worth calling Somssi to ask. For a sure table, star it and let an alert tell you the moment one 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 Somssi for me?
- No. SnagRes tells you the moment a table opens at Somssi 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.
