Keep in mind that restaurant.com "gift certificates" are actually more like a coupon than a traditional gift certificate. They have minimum purchase requirements and may be subject to other restrictions as well.
Example: I bought a $25 certificate for Jazz the other day. To redeem it, you need a forty-dollar minimum purchase, plus they add an 18% gratuity to the undiscounted total. Other restaurants may have different terms, but I didn't see a single one that unconditionally accepted the certificates at face value. (like you'd expect from a regular gift certificate)
It's still a good deal - the certificate cost me two bucks (regular $10 - use coupon code SAVE for an 80% discount) so we'll wind up paying $17 for forty bucks worth of food and drink. But they're not "gift certificates" in the traditional sense of being just like money.
