minimum of $300 for three total people just to ensure a table there.
"I figured, well, we’re not going to spend $300," Tolsky said. "We might spend $250. But I don’t want to spend $300 dollars on a meal that costs $250." He went elsewhere on that basis, telling CBS-2 that "Now is the time for them to attract customers and not detract them."
The restaurant itself echoed the policies of a number of other Chicago dining establishments, saying in response to the report:
“Like many in our industry, we had to make some updates to our policies. The $100 per person minimum will remain in effect to provide the ability to be successful as a steakhouse designed for the full sit-down experience and support our restaurant’s operations and staff.”
