For me, I look at the meal, not the price. Not that I want to spend the most, but I like what I like so if it's on the dollar menu then so be it, I eat what I like not what it costs. However looking at the list from Lovefood of the most expensive dishes around the Nation, I may have to re-word my early comments lol some of these are expensive and if you took a whole group out to eat, well it could turn into a very expensive night.

According to Lovefood the most expensive dish, seafood, can be found in Ramsey at Varka. "New Jersey has an impressive number of high-end restaurants to rival New York’s scene, although most of the priciest places exclusively offer tasting menus. Mediterranean fish house Varka bucks the trend with an à la carte menu that requires big bucks. Most of the seafood is sold by weight, with Dover sole the priciest fish at $55 per lb. Given that the average weight is around 3lbs, that’s a pretty hefty price tag before you’ve even looked at the side dishes."
