Some people read too much into this. It means: "Do you want to go out with me?" - as a boyfriend. And that's all it means. No "tonight". And NOBODY would ask that question for another purpose (except in another context, like if you had been talking about what you were going to do tonight; but even then, we would probably say something else).
She wants you!!!

She doesn't mean that she wants to go out with you for a night.
When a french person asks you "voulez-vous sortir avec moi?" he means do you want to be my boyfriend or girlfriend. We use that expression for that purpose.
The translation "Do you want to go out with me?" is a litteral translation but it doesn't render the spirit. The interpretation of "voulez-vous sortir avec moi?" is rather "Do you want to date me?". She's aking for a boyfriend/girlfriend type of relationship.
So, this girl asks you if you want to be her boyfriend. The answer she's expecting is a yes or a no.

fortunately for you your questions involves the only french that I know. Awhile ago there was a song with the lyric so similiar to this that one only needs to replace the word sortir and there you have the meaning. And sortir is easy enough to guess its meaning, you know the word is used in English for flights into eminy territory or sorties
Obviously she would like to know if you care to go on a bombing mission this eveining. I threw in this evening because it was part of the original song

she's asking you to go out with her.
don't get your hopes up just yet tho cos she's not asking you to go to bed with her a la 'lady marmalade', as the lyrics to that are 'Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?'
hey, if you like her then go for it...she's obviously put some effort into altering the translation from the original, and it's kinda sweet :o)

It means, "Do you want to go out with me?" However, "vous" means "you" only when speaking formally (i.e. speaking to a stranger or person of higher status) or when speaking to more than one person. Your friend should have said, "Veux-tu sortir avec moi?"

Sortir could mean 'go out' but it could also mean 'exit' in a few other ways. Depending on what sort of friend you have, it might mean he/she wants to get fired along with you, wants to get out town with you (to France maybe?) or indeed wants to go out with you. I hate when friends speak French...
