Check out CH to see if the majority of posts are not unfavourable. Bad posts are more indicative than good posts.
Many of these places offer two for one three course prixe meals . In any event, check their menus online to see if you can put together a decent meal more or less within the price range of the coupon.
The coupon places are better for taking the wife, not the girlfriend. You can oblige the Mrs to thrift- keeping close to the coupon.amount.
If you really like go back and spend more, even overpriced wine.
Like I said previously. Its like at a buffet. You gotta pick out what has the potential to be a good meal from what is available- rather than what might suit your fancy- and not set yourself up for failure and complaint.
What sort of luck do you have selecting a restaurant without a coupon? So for example Amaya (not recommended, see previous post ) was turning tables when I was there and I doubt that there were many coupons.
As for finding a foodie experience, its up to you and no one is going to tell you different. Many CHers- hundreds - posted rave reviews of Caplansky's, Dr. Laffa and Goodys. Nothing further on this trio.
With a coupon you get a trip to a place to which you have not been and a fighting chance of at least saying that it was worth the money.
P.S. -to aser- I also have focussed on Summer and Winterlicious in the past.
