If a seat comes back

TableCheck has no vacancy alert for future dates; its emails are about your own booking, and a same-day queue exists only where the restaurant turns it on. support-diners.tablecheck.com

We still send you release-date alerts: for a set release date, the day before, on the morning of release day (08:00 JST) and about 30 minutes before when the time is known; for houses that open a little every day, a weekly summary.

Apicius takes reservations online through TableCheck, which you can use from abroad with your own account and a credit card.

A free release-date alert emails you the day before, on the morning of release day (08:00 JST) and about 30 minutes before when the opening time is known; houses that open a little every day come in a weekly summary.

What time zone is the release time?

All times are Japan Standard Time (UTC+9). Release days are computed from the house's published rule and re-checked monthly.
