How do I use my restaurant eGift cards?

After receiving a restaurant eGift card by email, we recommend reviewing the specific card's unique redemption instructions.

What if my restaurant bill is less than or more than the card’s value?

If your bill is less than your gift card’s value, the card will have left over funds.

You will need an alternative payment method on hand.
