Eh, that's like regular restaurant. Appetizer: $18. Entrees: ~$30 each. Drinks: like $16 each; on a date, probably each getting two. Dessert: $12. Add 7% tax and then 20% tip and you're just about there.

    A regular restaurant where? Those prices (especially the cocktails) are what I'd see at a higher end place, but I'm in the Midwest

    Mostly any mid to large city? I’m also in the Midwest and these prices are fairly standard for a somewhat Middle of the road sit-down restaurant.
