It is not an OpenTable problem. It is a two-week window.
Michael Cimarusti opened Providence on Melrose in 2005 and has held two Michelin stars for most of the past two decades. The dining room runs a seafood-led tasting menu and seats about seventy across the main room and a chef's counter.
OpenTable opens two weeks ahead. The 7-to-9pm tables clear in the first minute; weeknights and the late seatings stay open longer. The chef's counter facing the kitchen is a separate higher-priced reservation.

How do I get a reservation at Providence Los Angeles?
Name Providence Los Angeles and the night you want. We book it on your account the instant a table opens or a cancellation appears, and you only pay if we actually get it.
Why is Providence Los Angeles so hard to book?
Providence Los Angeles is one of the most in-demand tables in 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 Providence Los Angeles reservations open up?
Providence 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.
