Funny things you hear in restaurants (The $68.00 Salad)) 

Costco meat is pretty great!

I would of got something cheaper when we ate at Applebees it was like $38 for 3 people

I actually have pretty great steak at home once in a while. Funny enough... Ribeye isn't even close to my favorite... My favorite would be Flank and Filet Mignon.

@@Nionivek Flank steak is delicious! Great for tacos or steak and eggs.

@@MelB868no effin way… maybe one steak, and two salads… $38 won’t do anything for 3 people at McDonald’s… much less Applebees…

Despise people that do that. They want to look like a big shot when they are not. I prefer the old school, quiet elegance clients but we can't always get what we hope for.

As a Bartender/Waitress, I ALWAYS mention the cost of an upgrade/modification, or if something is inordinately expensive… It saves the argument when the check is dropped, and any embarrassment for the customer… There are always casual ways to be either direct, or hint around it… If a guest scoffs & says they aren’t worried about the price, I just tell them management requires that I tell them (which is typically the case)…

But then the customer gets insulted and indignant when you tell him/her the price bc he/she thinks you think they can't afford the drink. "Damn if you do and damn if you don't" lol.😊

If a glas of a drink costs £300 and the bartender doesn't inform the customer it's his fault when there are probles afterwards. This was totally espectable and you still let it happen. You know that nobody would ever expect it to cost that much. If you stil serve him without any warning it's an active try to deceive. It's clear that it wasn't his intention to get financially ruined by a drink or at least you couldn't know beforehand if he was willing or even able to pay that. So if he refuses to pay it's you who didn't prevent the incidence and either you or your bar comes up for the damage or you're not the right person for the job.

@@wihatmi5510 Exactly; you have to know your customers.

Take it. It is a steal where I live.

Plus the drink, desert and tax.

Yeah. That’s kind of the norm now

@@naomiemoore5725it's expensive as ever

Yeah 😂 in my country that's 3 days salary for an average person

And they are still coming back.

You’re a brat. Prices are outrageous and you know it.

BULLSHIT!!! Just because I don't want to get ripped off doesn't mean I can't afford it. I'm making some cheap burgers: I'll sell you some for $100 each.

I work at a TGIChilliBee’s, and people complain all the time, ask for discounts, then say they won’t be coming back… Then, we see them 2 weeks later 😂

To be fair, many higher end restaurants don’t always list the price for all items, especially for those that fluctuate…

@@xamyx725 well that customer said he won´t worry about it so i do not get how ur argument makes sense

A fool and his money?

Once a year? We eat out more than that also the way dad works we can get gift cards to places and basically eat there for free with points we get olive garden for free Applebees for free I think red lobster may be on there for free

I’ve learned over the decades that’s the best way to handle it…

i mean he said the rib price. Unless he expected the salad to be free... then he couldn't really afford to "not worry about it"

Most places don’t serve up three burgers and fries with drinks (+tax/tip) for $38. Complete lunch was about $12 per person? That’s a good deal these days

$55 for a ribeye isn’t that expensive for what it is. $13 for a salad is very very common. I mean if it’s usda sure that’s probably too much but prime or American wagyu that’s a steal. I’ve paid well over $150 for a steak.

I would not pay those prices for any steak or salad.

Oftentimes, you’re also paying for the ambience… I work at a corporate chain restaurant known mostly for appetizers & ribs, but we have a NY Strip entree for $30ish. While the quality is great, an actual steakhouse in the area would easily charge double…

@@kanedyedstrips3274 You have more money than brains, apparently.

@@kanedyedstrips3274 $ 150.00 for 1 steak? Man that damn steak better be as easy to chew as a hamburger.

Why say something at all? The scenario you've presented sounds like it's your fault to me

@@animalxing8697 You don't say anything rude.

It was 55 dollars for the steak.

I’m a server in the US I make 3-4 times what servers make in other countries because of tips. If I was a server in England I’d have to sell both my cars lol.

The owners of my job would need to pay me $70 an hour in the winter and over $100 an hour in the summer time in order to keep my income the same which just isn’t possible for a very small business barely profitable business to be paying the front of house employees $500 an hour.

@@kanedyedstrips3274 And every server is in this situation in the US?! And good health plan, include dental? I hear an experienced silver service waiter in a high end establishment in the UK can pull down six figures. What kind of qualifications and long term opportunities exist for wait staff in the US? Is it considered a menial job only?

AmuriCA is not civilized.
