It is not a Resy problem. It is a two-week window.
Alba runs in Malibu as a Northern Italian dining room with a wood-fire program and a patio that catches the ocean. The room sits inside LA's secondary-market top 10 and runs a tight pasta menu under low light.
Resy opens two weeks ahead. Patio tables in season clear first; the indoor dining room stays open longer. The bar takes walk-ins for the full menu most weeknights.

Why is Alba Los Angeles so hard to book?
Alba Los Angeles is one of the most in-demand tables in West Hollywood. Prime-time seats are claimed within seconds of release, and many never reach the public at all, so refreshing on your own rarely works.
When do Alba Los Angeles reservations open up?
Alba Los Angeles releases tables on a set schedule, and seats also reappear when other guests cancel. We watch both around the clock and move the instant one opens, so you never have to refresh at midnight.
