Frequently Asked Questions
THE RESTAURANT IS NOT TAKING RESERVATIONS
You may walk in and use your Red Dining Book ('Book') without a reservation, subject to availability. All other rules still apply, so please come with at least one other person and order a minimum of two main entrées.
THE MAIN ENTRÉES ARE NOT CLEARLY STATED ON THE MENU
If a restaurant does not clearly label dishes as 'main entrées' on its menu, you are required to confirm with the restaurant before ordering which menu items are eligible for the use of the vouchers in the Book. Pasta and Pizza are considered main entrées.
WHERE SHOULD I MENTION THE BOOK WHEN MAKING A RESERVATION?
When making a reservation, you can write 'coming with the Red Dining Book' in the remarks field. Alternatively, you can call the restaurant for making a reservation and mention that you will be using the Book.
CAN I USE THE BOOK FOR LUNCH?
In general, the Book is valid only for dinner. However, some restaurants accept the Book for lunch or brunch menu items as well. Please, always confirm with the restaurant before ordering to avoid any issues with redemption.
DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO MAKE A RESERVATION?
Yes! If you arrive without a reservation, the restaurants may refuse to accept the Book.
CAN A RESTAURANT DECLINE MY RESERVATION?
Yes! A restaurant has the right to limit the number of guests with the Book on busy days (i.e., Fridays and Saturdays), or refuse them during public holidays, or for special events. We highly recommend making reservations at least 48 hours in advance!
HOW DOES THE VALIDATION OF THE BOOK WORK?
Before payment, present your Book for redemption. Upon proper presentation of the Book, the restaurant will place a stamp, autograph, or other distinguishing mark above the respective side of the restaurant in the Book. The voucher will no longer be valid after the restaurant places such a marker in the Book.
IF WE ARE MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE, DOES THE RESTAURANT ACCEPT MORE THAN ONE BOOK?
No, only one Book is accepted per group.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A RESTAURANT IS CLOSING?
Unfortunately, we can't do anything about the closing of a featured restaurant. We are unable to offer refunds. However, we always do our best to find alternatives and other options. If an alternative becomes available, we will contact you immediately!
