I almost never see them surface at all, and when they do, there have always been non-exclusive tables available on the same day not too far from the same time. Maybe I just have bad luck, or it's very regional (though I have tried it in NYC and LA), but for someone who should be directly in the target market for this, I've found zero real world value from it.
I've had some good luck with Amex's concierge getting me tables that are unavailable. I've called a few times to restaurants that I wanted and there was nothing available. Called the concierge immediately thereafter and the best seat in the house then opens up. Go figure--I'm nobody important.
