Restaurant deals

My fiance and I enjoy eating out from time to time, but it can get to be expensive. There are, however, a lot of restaurants that have deals that we have enjoyed and I'd love to share with you.

Famous Daves has a P.I.G email club that you can sign up for. When you sign up you get a coupon to use within the first month. You print it off and it is good for anything from a dessert, appetizer, dinner all the way up to their All American Platter (which is a $69 value I think!). You just bring it in and they check the code to see exactly what you won. They also send you this same coupon for everyone's birthday that is signed up with the account. We have been able to use this 3 times and all three times have enjoyed a free yummy appetizer (an $8 value). It is worth looking into. Side note: if you go for your birthday they also give you a birthday dessert.

Red Robin also has an email club, but they only send out birthday burgers. I love this and it is still worth signing up for. The downfall with their coupons is that you have less than a week to use them and my birthday is right during the holidays when no one wants to eat out. They did, however, send us a free appetizer coupon this week that doesn't expire until February 14th so we are going to be sure and use that! Red Robin also gives you a birthday dessert if you go for your birthday.

Red Lobster has an email club also and gives $5 off any 2 dinner meals for your birthday. Five dollars is five dollars and if you like Red Lobster then enjoy that coupon. I believe they give you about a month to redeem that coupon.

Bonefish Grill has 1/2 price appetizers from 4-6 and 9-close. It is a little on the pricey side of things, but for special occasions it is a nice place to go. (We went there the night we got engaged and actually found this special by accident.) If you haven't tried their Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer you should. It will not disappoint you.

Fiesta Mexican Grill also has 1/2 price appetizers and meals from 2-4 Monday through Friday I believe. (I will double check that one). We also ran across this one by accident but were able to enjoy their free salsa bar, a huge appetizer, 2 big meals all for under $20-tip and tax included. And we both brought home leftovers!

AppleBee's has 1/2 price appetizers during their happy hour 3-6. I think they do 1/2 price drinks too. (I'm a water girl so I don't pay attention to drink specials, but I think Bonefish has 1/2 price drinks during their time also).

P.F.Changs also has 1/2 price appetizers and drinks from 3-6 and for $3-$6 dollars. This special runs daily.

That should give you a few options when dining out in the future. If you know of any we should be aware of, please share. Hopefully you will be able to benefit from some of these great eating out specials.
