A couple of the restaurants seem to have a good deal set up, but I'm like you in the sense that I do not like dessert at all.. and their entree options aren't as good as the actual menu.

For example, Bin 77. I like this spot and go as often as I can. Their RW options are a beef tenderloin, a pork tenderloin, and a salmon entree. But my favorite entrees there are the short ribs.. the duck.. the lamb.. and the prime rib. They only have 2 "first course" options on the RW menu and they suck.. whereas their small plate menu is really awesome.

We've actually gone to restaurants for RW in the past, intending to order off of the RW menu, but ended up ordering one app to split and each the entree we actually want off the menu.. and it ends up cheaper.

The Doe's one seems like a good menu though. So I guess it just depends on restaurant.

This is what I'm thinking. If I got a middle-of-the road restaurant and get whatever I want I'm spending 20 dollars anyway, so it doesn't make sense to me that I'd pay that same $20 for very limited options and no drink or gratuity included. I mean most of the appetizers are stuff like lentil soup or garden salad, while the deserts seem to be uniformly bread pudding or vanilla ice cream. Not impressed.
