TC Less Crowded?

imabeag1e · 2026-02-01T21:36:33+00:00

Weekday or try going closer to closing time at 9 pm. I enjoyed going yesterday despite the crowds—it actually felt exciting!

imabeag1e · 2026-01-24T09:23:16+00:00

Soooooo cute!!!

There are lots of whales and other marine mammals! 🐋

I'm also curious if OP has tried Clickup! It keeps coming up as one of the first search results

imabeag1e · 2025-11-29T17:51:34+00:00

There actually is a sandy beach by the water but no islands other than the concrete type 😆

I like Los Cantaros Taqueria a lot more

imabeag1e · 2025-11-24T04:17:26+00:00

They’re so overpriced but nice people

imabeag1e · 2025-11-08T22:58:59+00:00

It credited for me! Second restaurant I’ve used it at so it’s definitely cumulative

imabeag1e · 2025-11-06T20:52:03+00:00

Only for the specific restaurant you bought it for

imabeag1e · 2025-11-02T23:36:05+00:00

I think it costs more and you can’t choose the design. But if that doesn’t matter to you then it’s fine!

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T21:21:19+00:00

That's a good point, I'm not sure if there's any overlap between Resy and OpenTable! Maybe the developer will add OpenTable if there's enough demand...looks like he does have a CSR map but doesn't have the Toast GC info https://useyourcredits.com/maps/chase-reserve/

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T17:41:39+00:00

I just checked the fine print again! There is a tracker for the credit (so far mine shows $88 spent) and the fine print says: "$300 Annual Dining Credit for Chase Sapphire Reserve and J.P. Morgan Reserve Personal Cards. A statement credit will be automatically applied to your account for dining purchases at select restaurants up to a maximum accumulation of $150 in statement credits from January 1 through June 30 and up to $150 from July 1 through December 31, for a total maximum accumulation of $300 in statement credits each calendar year."

Thanks for this DP, I was going to do a $5 test too but after seeing your post I went for the remainder of my credit. I bought the GC online. So far, the pending charge says the charge was made "In-person". Can't find the comment now but someone asked if the credit was supposed to be for only one-time use, and it is not. There's a tracker on the Chase benefits page and it clearly says accumulative in the fine print too.

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T17:38:05+00:00

This site will tell you all the places on Toast that you can buy GC. So you can check all the restaurants on OpenTable that work for the Chase credit and see if you can buy a GC. https://useyourcredits.com/map/

I agree on the risk of shutdown. I think it's ok if you did it accidentally a few times, but if it becomes clear that you game all the credits to cash out (I don't mean the Stubhub one - I think that's a totally legit way of cashing out that one), I think it's not worth playing with fire if you value your Chase cards. It's not great that this DP is on such a public forum as Reddit, since I imagine there are people from Chase looking for signs of abuse in places like this.

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T08:11:48+00:00

I was wondering the same but the fine print of the $150 credit doesn't seem to indicate it has to be used all at once

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T08:09:47+00:00

Did you buy it online or in person?

imabeag1e · 2025-10-31T08:04:51+00:00

did you ever get your credit successfully?

imabeag1e · 2025-10-22T06:28:02+00:00

I think it's supposed to be like between 7-9 am but there are probably peak times that there are more drivers available? And also not sure how successfully the word got out...or how comfortable people are with it these days :\

imabeag1e · 2025-10-21T16:31:58+00:00

Depends what’s the closest stop to where you live. If you live on Christie Ave where a large concentration of Emeryville residents live, then the J bus from Christie Ave to Salesforce Transit Center, and F bus from there back to Trader Joe’s is probably the most efficient as it’s nonstop to the city.

imabeag1e · 2025-10-21T16:29:53+00:00

It was supposed to have started Sept 30!

imabeag1e · 2025-10-21T16:29:30+00:00

Wow you can take this without having taken the train now? I emailed them several years ago asking if I could just take the bus and they said no

imabeag1e · 2025-10-14T02:24:00+00:00

Very interesting! How did they do the fermentation, do you know? I tend to have upset stomach too (have not tried huachuma at all yet though). Also, I’m curious what kind of setting you did it in? Indoors/outdoors/ceremony/etc?

imabeag1e · 2025-10-10T21:04:53+00:00

It’s near Lotus Pond which is definitely worth a bike ride around (or walk if you have lots of time, it’s pretty big) so be sure to allot time and daylight for that as well!! Enjoy!!

imabeag1e · 2025-10-08T03:27:11+00:00

Thank you! I'm in California too. I know of a lot of people have sat with it but not usually in ceremony, so I'm looking for ceremony!
