To make you feel even worse, a 14 (not 12) oz. NY Strip Steak at Capital Grille, goes for $30 with a side dish. (That's 44% less, for 17% more.)

When a menu says “market price”, you can always ask the Server what is the current market price for that item. Market Price can change quite often so that is the reason they don’t have a price by that particular item.
