When does Araki open its reservation book?
Pocket Concierge only (instant booking when a seat exists; register for the seat alert, since the page is usually sold out). No phone number is published and no release day is announced. One simultaneous seating at 18:00, Tue–Sat; closed Sun, Mon and holidays. All times are Japan Standard Time (UTC+9).
How do I book Araki from abroad?
Araki takes reservations online through Pocket Concierge, which you can use from abroad with your own account and a credit card. If you would rather not, our Tokyo desk can request it for you: ¥12,000 per seat, charged only if the table is secured. 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.
