Nothing at all
Fine dining in 2021 is a myth
The places are nice and upscale but the dress code is you just wear what you wore to work or decided to get dinner
You're gonna spend $100 especially as a couple
But per person naaah!
Yeah you have to order nothing but appetizers to keep the tab under $100/person at any steakhouse that's worth a damn.
For one person, an entree, side and drink alone is easily $100.
Shit...@Nurs-Et
If you can't afford the $100 fee. Then you can't afford what's on the menu any way.
I get it. "Fine dining" includes an atmosphere of sophistication. Obviously, the dress code is targeting the "urban look" that primarily black folks use. That said, I don't see is as racist in that that might be a common look in their steakhouse that they are trying to avoid. If suddenly loud white folks in wife beaters and wranglers started coming in by the dozens, the steak house would likely add to the dress code to address them. If we are going to be honest, many people who dress in baggy jeans tend to be loud and obnoxious. I experience it often when going to steakhouses. Im not going to advocate for behavior that I don't agree with.
Honestly I’d have a problem if I went to McDonald’s and they told me that I had to spend $10.
It’s the principle.
And I don’t go to McDonald’s but that’s not the point.
Who tells patrons that they have to spend a certain amount of money to eat there?
And before you say it, I’m not talking about drink minimums at places.
it's interesting in your post about the Baltimore restaurant, you left out the part about a white kid who was dressed similarly was allowed to eat in the restaurant with his parents. In fact, that was the black woman's main complaint.
If that is the event you are referring to, can you explain why you left that part out?
The things is this is a different level of business. They're catering to people who not only spend money (that's clear by the menu prices) but also tip as well.
Me personally I could afford the place but the restaurant aint geared towards a person like me who think that shit is overpriced.
Btw restaurants have thin margins and if people are just buying the lower priced items on the menu. Then that may be the reason (or one of the reasons) for the policy change
Cant keep a playa down tho. He got those red shoes in the back on deck to stunt on em.
*true story*

I went to Alexander’s steakhouse in San Francisco and ordered the Waygu. I didn’t know they priced that shit by the ounce . No damn prices on the menu. I ordered the 9 ounce Jawn because a 3 ounce steak ain’t shit. My god damn bill was over $1000 between me and my wife and drinks and appetizers . My steak alone was $625 . Never again
Let’s be honest, they don’t want niggas in there chillin getting appetizers and hanging out like it’s happy hour.
I get it that they want people to spend more money and weed out the people who are just chillin and not really spending.
But I just have an issue with any place telling people how much they have to spend. And it doesn’t matter the establishment.
Indeed, there are better places. Allot of them aren't expensive either. That said......... Red Lobster though fam??? I'll give Pappadeaux a lil more credit than that.Pappadeaux is just above Red Lobster to me; shit is not good, neither; and I aint going there unless to get bitches; because bitches love Pappadeaux and Red Lobster
Oh it was good as fuck it came with 19 different salts . But still though
Steak restaurants don't have a drive through
y'all trippin.
so how do you separate drink minimums? High ass watered-down drinks
there are many businesses that require a minimum...
these kinds of restaurants been doing it for big parties for years.
They could have sold him one rib.......but they wanted to tell a mofokr you gotta get a half slab
Gay elf boots
Lmbaoooooo I was sweating when I saw that bill . My wife even commented before the bill came out that the waiter is so nice. That nigga knew he was going to get paid.The wife would’ve told them “I don’t know that man” that day because

Certain clubs or events are known to have drink minimums, I’ve never heard of a restaurant having a minimum that patrons have to spend to eat there.
I’ve explained it as best as I can and most seem to get it. I don’t care how much it is, I don’t want a restaurant telling me the minimum that I have to spend to eat there.
In the past I’d go to steak houses and order the porterhouse for two…
Just for me, so I’m not worried about a price. I just don’t want you telling me how much I have to spend to eat there.

What if my bill’s only $78?
Are they going to add $22 to my bill for services or food that I did order or have?
Yeah I took the wife there for Valentines Day....
Took pics and shit wit ole boy like I was a celebrity and shit....lol
I'll post the pics later. The place is nice tho.
I never understood this. I have zero issue with their policy because I'm not being forced to patronize their establishment. There are far too many other places that I can patronize.
