<human>:  How can I save money when dining out?
<bot>: One way to save money when dining out is to order a smaller portion size. You could also try to look for restaurants that offer discounts or buy-one-get-one-free options, as well as searching for coupons or deals in local magazines or newspapers. Additionally, if you're eating with a group, you could order family-style dishes that can be shared amongst everyone, rather than ordering individual plates. Finally, ordering drinks and appetizers, rather than an entire meal, can also help save money.
