The Sapphire Reserve $300 Dining Credit is a perk exclusively available for the Chase Sapphire Reserve® and the Sapphire Reserve for Business℠, allowing you to get up to $150 in statement credits from January–June and again from July–December when dining at eligible restaurants.
The unfortunate part? Only ~300 restaurants are currently eligible and finding the eligible ones can be a bit of a hassle. The map we built above basically helps users quickly figure out which restaurants are eligible for the credit, with several filters like price + other highly requested features.
Sapphire Reserve Eligible $300 Dining Credit Restaurants
Currently, the restaurants available for the dining credit through the Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit program include a couple of hundred luxury and high-end restaurants scattered across the United States.
Since there aren’t restaurants available in every city in the U.S., it can be difficult to find an eligible restaurant where you can go and make the most out of your annual dining credit. The OpenTable website has a list of participating cities and their participating restaurants, but skimming each city to search for a restaurant can be particularly challenging and time-consuming, especially if you don’t live in or near any of the participating cities.
Luckily, we share your frustrations with how this process is so tedious, and we have created a map of all restaurants participating in the Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit program.
Our map comes with a variety of features to help you easily find the best restaurant for your next luxury dining excursion. These features include:
- An interactive world map with pins marking the locations of restaurants participating in the Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit program. Clicking each pin reveals the name of the restaurant, image of the restaurant, star rating, cuisine specialty, average price per person, address, phone number, etc.
- List view of all the restaurants participating in the Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit program. Here, you can see the name of the restaurant, image of the restaurant, star rating, cuisine specialty, average price per person, and a detailed description of the restaurant.
- Search bar allowing you to search for restaurants by their name, cuisine, city, and additional applicable factors.
- City filters, allowing you to view all the restaurants available in a specific city participating in the Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit program
- Cuisine filters, where you can select a variety of cuisines and view participating restaurants that serve the cuisine you desire.
- Price filters, where you can filter restaurants based on their average price per person. This can help you decide if you want an affordable casual dining experience or an expensive fine-dining experience.
- Feature filters, where you can search for restaurants that come with specific amenities, such as a bar, outdoor seating, counter seating, and high-top tables.
We’ve integrated all these filters and features into a user-friendly interface, allowing you to easily visualize the restaurants you would like to visit. After finding a restaurant you’re content with, you can select the restaurant, and you can make a booking through OpenTable without ever needing to leave our website.
How Do You Use Our Dining Credit Tool?
Instead of manually scrolling through OpenTable listings or skimming through lists, our map aggregates all participating restaurants and presents them in an intuitive, visually appealing format. Whether you’re planning a night out in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, or elsewhere in a participating city, you can instantly pinpoint where your dining credit can be used.
Many cardholders have found it frustrating to locate eligible restaurants because Chase and OpenTable don’t provide a centralized map with detailed information about all the eligible restaurants. Our map makes it easy to identify where to make dinner plans to maximize your annual credit.
Whether you’re maximizing your annual dining credit, hunting for upscale dining experiences, or exploring restaurants in a brand-new city while traveling, our tool helps you get the most value out of your Sapphire Reserve card.
Let’s say you’re visiting Chicago for the weekend, and you’re craving to have a nice dinner out at a sushi restaurant. You can open the map, filter restaurants by Chicago location, and filter by sushi cuisine. After doing this, you’ll be able to see that there is one eligible restaurant that fits your criteria: Momotaro.
Since the average price per person at Momotaro is $75, you’ll most likely be able to maximize one of your $150 semi-annual credits by dining out with a companion. Our map makes it easy to instantly book the reservation, greatly improving your dining experience, travel experience, and overall experience as a Sapphire Reserve cardholder.
We designed this map with the traveler and foodie in mind. It’s intuitive, sleek, and practical. Make sure to bookmark it, check it before your next trip, and make sure you’re never missing out on one of the Sapphire Reserve’s most valuable perks.
How Are Price Estimates Calculated?
We used a simple prompt to help determine the average prices across each restaurant. We basically had the AI take a look at each restaurant’s menu and take its best possible guess at the cost of an entree + tip/tax.
For restaurants that only serve pre fixe menus, we explicitly told the model to just take the pre fixe menu cost. In cases where there are both pre fixe and a la carte, we went with the a la carte.
The prices should be used as a proxy. If you notice anything really off, feel free to notify us at hello@nextcard.com!
How Do I Use The Sapphire Reserve Dining Credit?
The $300 annual credit comes in the form of a semiannual credit, as you are eligible to receive up to $150 in statement credits from January 1 through June 30 and up to $150 in statement credits from July 1 through December 31. Make sure you remember that the credits are split up like this—you can only get up to $150 every half of the year.
In order for the statement credits to apply, you must make the dining purchases directly with the select restaurants available through the program. This means that delivery, takeout, merchandise, gift cards, etc., will not be counted as part of a restaurant bill, and thus, you will not receive credit for these purchases.
For safe measures, just put down your physical Sapphire Reserve card when paying for the bill at the restaurant. It’s satisfying to hear the sound of the metal card against the table, anyway.
What Is The Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables Program?
The Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables program is a dining benefit tied to the Reserve that gives cardholders special access and perks at select restaurants via OpenTable.
While this program is closely related to the $300 Dining Credit, they are not the same. Technically, the Exclusive Tables program is more for dining perks like restaurant reservations and special events through the Visa Dining Collection. You can register for Exclusive Tables and in theory never actually use the Dining Credit.
For instance, if you got your Reserve prior to June 23, 2025, you can register for Exclusive Tables but you won’t be able to access your Dining Credit until October 26, 2025.
How Do You Use The Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables Program?
In order to use the Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables program, you’ll need to:
- Login or create an account on the OpenTable platform
- Link your eligible card to the account
- Once your membership with the program is verified and confirmed, you will immediately be granted access to primetime reservations at the exclusive restaurants that are available to book through the program.
What If I Got My Sapphire Reserve Prior to June 23, 2025?
If you got your Sapphire Reserve before the big switch date, then just note you won’t get any of the new benefits until after October 26, 2025.
That means, if you try to use your dining credit on October 25, 2025 you will not receive any credit. Don’t try to do this.
Starting October 26, 2025, you’ll have access to the dining credit, but only for the remaining ~2 months of 2025. Remember: the credit is divvied up into 2 semiannual “buckets,” so you can only get up to $150 per half of the year. Therefore, after October 26, 2025, you’ll only have up to $150 to use.
