Restaurants Dot Com

My first restaurants.com certificate was recently purchased for an Italian restaurant in my area called La Toscana.  The gift certificate was $3 (after a 70% discount).  I had heard of restaurants.com before but was reluctant to buy a gift certificate because I had never eaten at any of the restaurants listed.  I was also unsure how it worked.  I did not have to wait for something to be mailed to me.  No waiting as I was able to print the certificate immediately.   Until April 22 nd  you can snag 70% off using code FEAST when checking out.

With the certificate in hand my family and I headed out to dinner.

La Toscana was quaint with only having seating for approximately 30 people.   The food was good.   Service was slow and very laid back.  The kids' meals were a bit pricey and did not come with drinks.  Hubby's and my food was excellent.  We shared a meal and it was plenty for us.  I ordered two kids meals for all four kids to share.  My oldest was still hungry after finishing hers.  That worked out fine because my son did not want to finish his.  So oldest kiddo finished her brothers meal.   Including the cost of the certificate, tax and tip the total bill came to $20.54.  That is exactly what I like to pay when all of us eat out.  All in all it was a good experience and Hubby and I want to go back on a date.  

One thing to mention is for this particular restaurant, there was a minimum amount that had to be spent and an 18% tip was included in the bill.  I thought 18% was a little steep for the service we received but I understand why they do that.
