Restaurant gift certificates are always good..... But NOT "buffet" style ones. At least get an Olive Garden or something semi formal. I think women get sick of being dragged to the local "P.J. Blands" all-you-can-eat line every time they go out, and would love an excuse to dress up for a night not related to church.

No seriously, I vote a gift certificate to a nice restaurant. Who doesn't love to eat?

We really try not to go that often but I have only had one or two "bad" meals at the Olive Garden, and in each case it was because I ordered something that I just plain did not like. (You know... deviating from my list of "safe" choices.)

I love Olive Garden! That is where my husband took me the night he proposed. It was our favorite restaurant until we moved 2 minutes away from Texas Roadhouse....

Another very good one.
We live just a few minutes from a Chili's which is, thankfully, very good as well.

Red face Re: Help with gift idea

Good ideas. I vote for Texas Roadhouse.

I'm probably going against the tide but I'm not a fan of Olive Garden. (and as empty nesters who both work our 40 hrs a week, we eat out alot )
