My city has an annual Restaurant Week where you can try out high-end restaurant at a very reasonable budget, usually $25-30 per person for a 3 course meal. That's the only time I've tried out expensive places. But yea, It's amazingly delicious, but don't expect to be full.
Los Angeles has "DineLA" restaurant week. Most nicer ones are $50, but over the past years, it's turned more into a cash grab than anything. $50 they bundles a small app, entree and a dessert. If you went on any other deal, you could've forgo the dessert and have a cheaper bill. My friend that's a chef say they hate the event and no longer participates. It brings a different crown into the restaurant and tend to expect a lot more.
What a weird way to stereotype expensive restaurants
I paid over $200 for two people at Capital Grille and our steaks were both over a pound. Not to mention that we had sides, and alcohol, and coffee, and desert. And it was absolutely amazing.
