So, in this case, the term "special" means that they purchased the highest priced entree on the menu. I think that the restaurant clearly deceived them by not telling them the price of the grouper entree, and by referring to it as a "special".
The prime meats that are Market Price are in the mid to upper $40s. The 9 0z filet mignon is $33. I eat there frequently and they have had lobster specials with good size lobster for $60. The food, service and ambiance are excellent.
