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): openings for other party sizes go uncounted, and so may some at times far from the hours members follow. “Typically gone within”: at least half of these tables were gone by our next check within that time; a table still open or that came back counts as never gone. These are not completed bookings; alerts depend on your preferences and a booking is not guaranteed. How we collect this data.

§ 05 · The problem

Why The French Laundry is very hard to book.

Thomas Keller's restaurant at 6640 Washington Street, in a stone building from 1900, with a French menu that changes daily and three Michelin stars since 2007. Many Tock restaurants charge when you book, so check the terms first. Cancellations can create another opportunity to book. We monitor for these openings, but cannot guarantee one will appear.

§ 06 · How to get in

Tips for a reservation at The French Laundry.

01

Confirm the booking rules

Use Tock and the restaurant’s official site to confirm the release window, seating options and cancellation terms. Monitoring observations are not official policy.

02

Choose preferences you can use

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.

03

Keep a backup restaurant

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.
