I Gotta Go For dinner vs I Gotta Go For lunch

'I gotta go for dinner' is appropriate when talking about the evening meal, while 'I gotta go for lunch' is suitable for the midday meal. The choice between the two depends on the specific mealtime context. Both phrases are only correct for informal contexts. For formal speech/writing, the correct form is 'got to' or 'have to'.
