About $250 at Ruth's Chris on my wife's birthday. Cocktails, a ribeye, and a lobster that was just "flown in". Pretty sure we bought it's plane ticket. Didn't care it was a spectacular meal. Would do it again in a minute.
What Is the most money you have ever spent on a meal?

I ate at one of those in Dallas around 2001. It was a cool experience. I think it was $75 each, maybe that included the tip. Can't remember exactly, I was in a big group.
Right at $500 for the wife and I at Moto in Chicago.
Great, great dinner. Sad to see the owner offed himself.

I don't care what anybody says, the garlic butter hot plates they serve their steaks on at Ruth's Chris are freaking genius, and I love it.
That's just selfish. You could have fed an entire village in a 3rd world country for a year on that.
I had leftovers Glenn. Plus we send 40-0 shirts over there every year, so I don't feel as bad.
nope. Got VIP treatment though as I was a guest of the CFO (dude I met at dog park [Chief's Dad]). Table was in wine room overlooking main dining. Fiji water $10...
Did meet Jean Georges though.
I assumed they had that already.And gave entire village dysentery... Bad idea Glen.
VIP table at cheetah in Atlanta
Meal was on house but dumped thousands on appetizers and dessert if you catch my drift.

Around 350 dollars at Jean George's...was on company credit card tho, so nothing for me to feel guilty about
This thread should be titled "What is the most you have ever spent on food at a meal". Currently, it is nothing more than who has tallied the most w/ expensive drinks tipping the scale.
For a party of 2....
Food...$250 plus at Mama's Fish House in Maui.
Food and drinks... close to $400 at Sinatra at Wynn b/c of 2 very nice bottles of Cab.

Now that my kids are beginning to eat off the "big" menu, I drop about 50-60 bucks every time I go to O'Chuck's. The lady and I usually have water (with lemon), but my young heathens can't resist lemonade and/or chocolate milk. Ya feel me?
The wife and I were staying at a top hotel (Claridges) in London about 12 years ago. The hotel's restaurant had this hot shot chef who people were talking up. We had a three course dinner and a bottle of wine for $500. It was good but it wasn't worth $500. The name of the restaurant and chef was Gordon Ramsay.
Got a $175 gift certificate to Jeff Ruby's and still paid $180 out of my own pocket for the wife and I. That's the most we have spent other than buying a $400 dinner or so for my family, mom & dad, and my sisters family at the beach during family vacation time.
I did spend $200 on a "hamburger" in a place in Rio that was in the red light district.... Come to think of it, the price was probably not just for the hamburger. So, never mind.
Best danged burger I have ever had though.

This is kind of a funny one... took a flight into Singapore and after 20 hours of travel we just wanted to get something to eat and get some rest. What better way to do it than the hotel buffet. Didn't look at the price, but were shocked to see it was $110 a pop when the bill came.
The gift that keeps on giving.
No meals any more outrageous than anyone else on here.
But. I did spend $4500 on sunglasses in Jamaica.
It was at the gift shop and it was three pairs over the course of a week and it was J$.
Whenever I visit my parents, my old man will take my lemon along with his and wring em' dry into his water, then mix it with some Splenda while smirking and explaining to me how he just got a free "lemonade". Every time. :sunglasses:
He probably left out the part where the prostitute was charging $200 for the date.
I can't recall the most for any meal, but I'll never forget dropping $115 for breakfast at The O-B House in Fort Lauderdale. Me, the wife, and our 2 kids (ages 8 and 4). Mandatory 'no tipping'. I mean, it was good. But we talkin' bout breakfast
Wife and I did a multi-course meal at Del Posto with a bottle of Barollo that cost about $500 all in. I had more truffles that night than the rest of my life combined. I think the price was $150 per person for the meal.
Ate a $100 steak at Craft Steak in Vegas that sucked think that total meal was only about $300 though.
