Frequently asked questions...

How Many Times Do I Have To Use My Guide For It To Pay For Itself?

2-3 times MAX! 

What Is The Value Of The Offers In The Guide?

Around $2500 worth of free food and experiences!

How Do I Use The Offers In The Guide?

It’s as easy as 1-2-3! When the restaurant hands you your check, show them their page in the book. They will redeem the offer and “stamp/initial” your book (indicating the offer has been used) and will give the book back to you. We recommend letting your server know you will be using the guide before you order to make sure you are ordering dishes covered by their offer.

If the server isn’t sure how to redeem the guide, don’t worry - Just ask them to check with their manager! We work with all the staff to make sure they’re trained, but due to high industry turn-over, you might get a new server. We appreciate your patience in this case!

How Long Do The Offers Last?

Offers are good for one year from print date: August 30, 2023

What If I Forget My Book? Is There A Way To Redeem The Offer?

Unfortunately not. We’re “old school” like that… for now ;)

What If The Restaurant Doesn’t Know What To Do When I Show Them My Book?

Bare with us. Sometimes this happens, as there is high staff turnover in restaurants. Please ask for the manager and most likely this resolves the problem.
Also, email us at dineit4ward@gmail.com so we know about the issue and can let the restaurant know about your experience. 

We appreciate your patience if this happens!

What If I Lose My Book? Can I Get A Replacement? 

Treat your book as if it is $$. If you lose your book, you’ll need to purchase a new one.

Are There New Offers Added Throughout The Year?

If you purchase the book, you’ll receive specially monthly offers to additional restaurants via email! Make sure to check your spam if you haven’t noticed this emails coming through already or email dineit4ward1@gmail.com to make sure you’re on our email list.
