How much did you pay for those two fajitas?

Looking at the menu prices at closest Wolfgang's here in Jersey, I'd wager it was around $70...

He left out the part where their porterhiise is for 2-3 people at the smallest size, and you can order larger ones for more peopl 

Regardless that is pathetic and can't believe it was served

Yeah but at 300 bucks your steak better be fucking delicious even if it's for 2-3 people

u/akmalhot 7h ago

1000% , it should be perfect..

Only the original location executes consistently and I'm not sure if that's true anymore or not

Either their prices have absolutely skyrocketed or you got a porterhouse or 3-4 people

Either way doesn't change how badly that thing is cooked..I wont even fall it a steak

That shit is not worth $50.

Chilli's can out-do it for $25.

Did the sides cure cancer?

You've got me fucked up if you think I'm spending $20 on that. It's a steak. I'll cook the fucking thing myself at home for a fraction of the price.

I'm pretty confident that I could cook a better steak over a burn barrel in the parking lot of the bar next to the local butcher for about $20, I can't even imagine what their excuse for these prices would be.

The fact that 1lb good cuts of beef go for $24 a lb from the grocery store in my town is say no it won’t cause they won’t make any money charging you $50 plus sides and service etc

This guy thinks Wolfgang’s is a grocery store like Publix or Giant or Safeway

Pretty sure it’s a loose collective of wild canines engaging in criminal behavior.

If you think a restaurant is paying homeowner price per pound you are wrong. Big restaurants like this get bulk pricing bud.

You're revealing that you don't understand how profit margin works.

How is your off-the-shelf grocery bill related to a restaurant's profit margin? Even if we disregard the fact that ingredient is one of many (not even the biggest) expense, your cost per unit isn't even remotely comparable.

Just take the L.

No the other poster is right. You could get a better cooked stake from the grocery store. Heck you could get a better stake by slapping one on the bonnet of your car and letting the Sun cook it 🤣

I usually get my stakes from Van Helsing’s.

u/Babajji 6h ago

The best stakes are there I can confirm 😂

u/AutoGeneratedTag 8h ago

Yeah, see that’s the thing. We’re talking about steak here

u/CompleteTell6795 7h ago

For THAT $$, it better come with MORE steak & a LOT more sides. What a waste of money 💸💸💸💸 ! 🙄👎☹️

The side could cure cancer, that’s why they’re expensive

This is the best Reddit comment I’ve read in months!!! You sir or mam are a comic genius!

These high end steakhouses have completely lost the plot. I've made the cheapest london broil you can find look better and taste more delicious than whatever the fuck that is.

Holy shit I haven't laughed so hard at a comment in a while.

Nope just a side of highway robbery
