DiverXO has no availability, not even on the waitlist my time there.
El Celler is all booked out for the year, but I added myself to the waitlist.
Tickets releases 2 months at a time and I missed out. There's no formal waiting list available but I emailed the restaurant to see if they can waitlist me. No reply from them.
I also called AMEX to try to get me a reservation for El Celler and Tickets.
Any advice on how I can get a table at these places?
Good luck on El Celler - I'm on the waitlist for a week in May. If there is a secret way to get a table I'd love to know. I tried to pull some local strings - epic fail.

P.s. Yes you save a lot at Lunch, but you loose a lot of the day. Also I normally take neverless the Tasting.
Yeah, I thought we beat this completely to death in the other thread.
