Our records show new dates at Élephante on OpenTable around 3:00 AM ET, 30 days before the reservation date — observed by our monitors, not confirmed by the restaurant. Our monitors captured fresh inventory on 7 release days in the last 90 days, most recently on Oct 3.
Openings can appear outside the usual release window. Alerts depend on matching availability; a booking is not guaranteed.
New openings only: each table counts once, the first time our monitors saw it, and tables that were already bookable when we started watching a date, a party size, a time of day or the restaurant are left out. We count only the party sizes we check here, which follow what our members ask for (these were for parties of 2 and 4): openings for other party sizes go uncounted, and so may some at times far from the hours members follow. These are not completed bookings; alerts depend on your preferences and a booking is not guaranteed. How we collect this data.
Use OpenTable and the restaurant’s official site to confirm the release window, seating options and cancellation terms. Monitoring observations are not official policy.
Include additional dates or times only if you can attend them. A narrow time window or party size can exclude openings seen elsewhere on this page.
Compare nearby restaurants below. Quiet activity does not mean the monitor is broken, and frequent observed openings do not guarantee one that matches your plans.

Book on OpenTable: choose your date and party size and complete the booking there. ReservationFinder alerts you to matching openings; it does not reserve or hold a table.
Follow Élephante and choose the dates, times and party size you can make. We check OpenTable for openings that match and send you an alert with a booking link. We caught 443 new openings in the last 30 days, for the party sizes we check here. Past openings do not predict your wait: a matching opening may never appear, and an alert does not hold the table.
Check that your follow is active, your notification channels are enabled, and your date, time and party-size preferences match what you can attend. Recent openings may fall outside those preferences. Compare the last check and observed activity above, and contact support if monitoring appears stale.
