Resy in New York: how releases and Notify work

The short answer

Updated
Release times
Each restaurant sets its own booking window and time on Resy. Resy's help centre gives 30 days as the standard.
Resy Notify
A waitlist for full dates: pick a date and time range and Resy alerts you if a table opens.
Not a guarantee
A Notify alert holds nothing. You must claim the table from the alert, and others may be faster.

What Resy is

Resy is a restaurant reservation platform. Guests search and book on resy.com or in the Resy app, and each restaurant decides which dates, party sizes and times it puts on its calendar.

Resy is the booking platform for most of the New York restaurants we watch. The table below lists every one, so you can see how many days each had a table.

How Resy releases tables

On Resy, the restaurant sets its own booking window. Resy's help centre describes it as the setting that decides how far into the future guests can book, and says the standard is 30 days. A restaurant can change it, and the change releases its online availability right away.

That is why the how-far-ahead column below runs from about a week at some restaurants to several months at others. Most restaurants here add one new date a day at a fixed local time; the release times page explains the pattern.

There is no single release time for all of Resy: each restaurant chooses its own. The restaurant's guide on Table Alert states the time it publishes, where it publishes one.

How Resy Notify works

Resy's help centre describes Notify as a future waitlist: you add yourself to a list and are alerted when a table opens that meets the date or time range you chose. Resy's own blog calls it a virtual wait list.

  1. Open the restaurant on resy.com. Per Resy's help centre, the Notify Me button sits under the booking calendar, and you can also set Notify in the Resy app.
  2. Choose your party size, your date and the time range you would accept.
  3. Per Resy's help centre, you get an email or an app push notification when a matching table opens.
  4. Open the alert and claim the table quickly. Resy's blog says an alert is not a guarantee of a reservation.

American Express cardholders eligible for Global Dining Access get Priority Notify: they are in the first group alerted when tables become available, before other Resy users. Resy's help centre says it applies at every restaurant on Resy, whether or not the restaurant takes part in Global Dining Access.

Fees, cards and cancellations

Each restaurant sets its own cancellation policy. Read the policy on the restaurant's Resy page before you book.

Resy's help centre tells restaurants that cancellation fees are not charged automatically; the restaurant processes them manually.

Every Resy restaurant we watch in New York

Days with a table counts how many of the last 90 days any table appeared. New dates appear is the time we observed new dates arriving, in New York time. "At no fixed time" means we saw no regular release; a blank means no figure yet. Click a name for its guide.

Proprietary data: Table Alert checks each restaurant's public booking calendar around the clock; these figures cover the last 90 days, vouched restaurants only, and are refreshed every night.

Where Table Alert fits

Notify covers Resy only. Table Alert alerts you by email, SMS or push across Resy, OpenTable, Tock, SevenRooms and other platforms, for restaurants it watches. Neither holds a table for you.

We never book, hold or resell tables. When we alert you, you book yourself on Resy. We measure how often tables open and how fast they go. We check calendars around the clock. An opening outside the regular release is how a cancellation looks in our data; we cannot see why a table appeared.

How it works

Set it once.
We refresh so you don’t have to.

  1. Add a restaurant

    Pick your restaurant and set your preferences.

  2. We track it nonstop

    We re-check every few seconds — cancellations, no-shows, and fresh drops.

  3. You get the alert

    Push, SMS, or email the instant a table opens. One tap to book.

The table they thought was impossible.

  • Jul 6, 2026 · Andrew via DM

    “I live in NYC and was finally able to get a table at The Corner Store after wanting to go for months! Just wanted to say thank you very much for making Table Alert!”
  • Table Alert is a total game changer

    “I just managed to snag Torrisi, so I can definitely say your app has delivered. Thanks for the great work!”
  • Lifesaver service for booking difficult reservations

    “Been looking for something like this for years, so glad I finally found it. It actually works — I just set up my alerts and wait for them to ping me. Already more than paid for itself with the couple of reservations I’ve managed to get this month alone.”

FAQ

Resy in New York: how releases and Notify work: questions people ask

Resy has no single time. Each restaurant sets its own booking window and release time. In the table above, find the restaurant to see the time we observed and how far ahead it opens. The restaurant's guide states any published rule.

It depends on the restaurant. Resy's help centre says a restaurant's booking window decides how far ahead guests can book, and that the standard is 30 days. New York restaurants in our table reach from about a week to several months.

You pick a restaurant, party size, date and time range. If a matching table opens, Resy alerts you by email or app push. It is a waitlist, not a reservation: you must claim the table by clicking into the alert.

No. Resy's blog says getting a Notify alert is not a guarantee of a reservation, and that sought-after tables tend to book quickly. Act as soon as you are alerted.

A perk for eligible American Express cardholders through Global Dining Access. They are in the first group alerted when tables open, before other Resy users. Resy's help centre says it applies at every restaurant on Resy, whether or not the restaurant takes part in Global Dining Access.

No. They are separate platforms. A restaurant lists its tables on the platform it chooses, so book where it lists them. Each restaurant's guide says which platform that is.

Often. At most Resy restaurants we watch, most openings came outside the regular release, which is how cancellations look in our data. We cannot see why a table appeared. Use Resy's Notify, or Table Alert, so you hear when one appears.

No. Table Alert watches a restaurant's public availability and alerts you by email, SMS or push when a table opens. You book it yourself on Resy or the restaurant's platform. We never book, hold or resell tables.

No alert within your first 30 days? Cancel and send us an email. We'll refund you in full — no questions asked.

Yes. Cancel from your account settings at any time. You'll keep access until your subscription expires.
