Restaurant.com Gift Certificates - $2 for $25 GC!

If you ever are tempted to try Restaurant.com, now is the time. If you use the coupon code SURPRISE from now until 11/20/2008 at checkout, you will receive 80% off your order. The normal price they charge for a $25 gift certificate, is $10. So, with 80% off, you'll be getting a $25 gift certificate for $2.

Be sure, though, to read all of the fine print on any restaurant you're interested in. Many of the restaurants have extra stipulations. Most require that you buy two entrees and go in the evening. The certificate does not cover your tip. Some require that you also have a total of $35 or $50.

My family has been using Restaurant.com for a couple years now. We've had some really good experiences and some that were not so good. Here are a few that we've tried and liked:

• Kafe Kabab in Laurel, MD (requires $35 minimum purchase)
• The Italian Market in Gambrills, MD (requires $50 minimum purchase)
  
• Fins Hawaiian Fusion in Crofton, MD
• La Tasca Spanish Tapas in Alexandria, VA (reqires $35 minimum purchase)
  

If you have an account with ebates (this is a referral link), the deal is even better, as they'll give you 15% of your purchase price back.

Do you know any that you would recommend?
