So restaurant.com seems like its too good to be true. They offer several denominations of restaurant gift certificates for way less than the face value; $25 gift certificates cost you $10, and no membership is required except for a username to keep track of your purchases. Cool, right?
These gift certificates, however, are not true gift certificates. They're more like coupons because they have requirements and stipulations for use. For example, you can buy a $25 "gift certificate" to Acapella on Hudson Street in New York City for $10; however it is only valid on a 3 course meal, and there is a $50 minimum food purchase. You also can't use a second "gift certificate".
Restaurant.com seems like a good idea, but make sure that you read the exclusions and minimums on the gift certificate before you buy. This may not be such a great deal for you after all.
