Vegas tix4tonight dinner discount
 
Saw at the Tix4tonight website that there are some participating restaurants for which you can, for a small reservation fee, receive some kind of dinner discounts. Has anyone used this service?

Looking for info re: How much the fee is and what kind of discounts are offered. $2 off the chicken? 50% off a second entree? There are 4 of us going and I expect to pick up the dinner tab a couple of times so wouldn't mind enjoying some savings. I see that the list of participating restaurants includes places we'd be going to anyway such as Emeril's, Buzios and Binions.

I've used them before. The fee is $2 and the discounts vary from restaurant to restaurant. Binion's is 25% off the check, and Emeril's is 25% off food (but not drinks). You can check the discounts on the website, if you click on the individual restaurants from this page: http://www.tix4tonight.com/las-vegas...t-coupons.html

It's a pretty good deal and they have a nice selection.

Also check Tix4less as they sometimes have different deals than tix4tonight. They both have kiosks all over the Strip. And also check the coupons/deals in the tourist mags that are at the airport and all over town.

We ended up using Tix4tonight. They offered varying discounts at several restaurants we were going to go to anyway. The charge is $3 per person wanting to take advantage of the discount. There were some "fine Print" that weren't mentioned until after I paid, such as No Lobster or Crab dishes included in the 2-for-1 entrees at Buzio's. Tix4tonight told me that if one of us ordered the Lobster or Crablegs the 2nd person would not get a free entree. I had already paid the fee for 4 of us and wasn't sure what anyone would order so declined their offer to refund the $12. Ended up 1 of us ordered Lobster, the other 3 of us different fish entrees. Buzio's did not charge us for the 2 lesser priced fish entrees which saved us almost $60 according to our waiter.

Will definitely look for this discount again.

Good for you. Amazing what having or being friendly to a waiter can do, eh?

Do you guys know other sites that takes reservations way in advanced? I called Tix4Tonight and they only take up to 7 days ahead of time for dinner reservations.

Thanks.

Jomegpie, I think the purpose of Tix4Tonight is to scare up business for shows/restaurants that are not at capacity. So it makes sense that you'd only be able to book with them a day or two ahead. If I could get a big discount way in advance thru them the show/restaurants would never earn full fare. But perhaps someone else knows of a discount site that can help you.
