"Have a good one" in this case correct?
When I told my friend that I am going to a restaurant for dinner, she said "Have a good one"
Does this make sense?

In English this is colloquial/more native way to say goodbye.
It means "have a good time" or "have a good day" and is frequently used in Australia, at very least.

It makes sense technically - the English makes sense.
However, nobody ever says that sentence in that situation. It normally means "Have a good day"
She might say "Enjoy", or "Have fun"

I agree with Samantha, Robert and zaeanderson, BUT...
I always want to reply by saying "Have a good WHAT?"
I don't care for this expression and I enocurage others not to use it...but that's just me :)

We say that a lot in the US. It just means have a good "whatever" you are going to do. It is a bit of lazy talk, but the meaning is gotten by the other person.
