It is not a Resy problem. It is a two-week window.
Jeremy Ford (Top Chef Season 13 winner) opened Stubborn Seed on South Beach in 2017 and earned a Michelin star in 2022. The menu is a modern American tasting with à la carte options; the dining room seats about seventy.
Resy opens two weeks ahead. Weekend tables compete; weeknights stay open longer. The chef's counter facing the open kitchen is a separate higher-priced reservation.

How do I get a reservation at Stubborn Seed?
Name Stubborn Seed 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 Stubborn Seed so hard to book?
Stubborn Seed is one of the most in-demand tables in South Beach. 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 Stubborn Seed reservations open up?
Stubborn Seed 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.
How much does it cost to book Stubborn Seed through The Elusive List?
One flat fee, charged only when we confirm your table. No table, no charge. Sign in to see the exact fee for Stubborn Seed.
