If someone on a budget wants to go to a fancy restaurant what is the harm in knowing what the dinner will cost. Not quite the same thing as buying a yacht. |

If you want a great steak at a reasonable price, get yourself a grill and a Costco membership

So never hesitate to ask. You are the one paying the bill. If they don't quote the price, I usually refer to Rule 1 and don't order it on principal. But if it sounds amazing, I do ask and decide if it seems worth it. |

Specials are expensive!
I see your point about how a “Special” might mean a good deal or cheaper price. But not so at a high end restaurant or steakhouse. Everytime I’ve seen a “special” on those types of menus, it’s been More expensive, not less, than other entrees.

I don't know what you mean by high end restaurants, but we live in The Villages. Almost every restaurant is always advertising lunch specials, happy hour specials, two for one meal specials, all-you-can eat specials, and every other kind of special. Some of the country clubs and other restaurants have regular weekly specials. I don't think anyone in The Villages would hear about a restaurant special and think that they are going to pay a higher price. I agree with the OP that the Chop House missed the boat by referring to their highest priced meal and calling it a special.

The OP should have asked the price but he didnt and now after sticker shock the restaurant probably lost a customer. |
