From Michelin stars in Manhattan to Brooklyn's hottest spots, NYC is the ultimate dining city. Competition for the best tables is fierce.
Most watched by our members first, then most new openings in 30 days.
Each is a table we saw become bookable while we were watching, never one already open when we started. “No longer available” means our checks stopped finding it: it may have been booked, released back or passed.
Most restaurants release reservations on a fixed schedule — a set time of day, a set number of days ahead. These are the confirmed release times for New York, with how strong our evidence is for each one.

Verified means we caught the restaurant flipping into its booking window at that exact time on more than one release day, within 30 seconds of the drop. Confirmed means the time is confirmed on our schedule, by a targeted check or the restaurant's own policy, but has not yet met that bar. Restaurants without a confirmed release time are not listed. Times are Eastern; convert for your own timezone.
Release windows are only half the battle — the tables that actually open most often are cancellations, which land at no fixed time. That is what our monitoring watches for.
