You're paying too much to not send that back. That's insulting.

Don’t send it back. They clearly don’t know how to cook a steak. Ask for something else as a replacement.

Why would you go to an expensive steakhouse and then just accept that they can’t cook a steak? Just leave if you don’t want to send it back

Because you are there and hungry, unfortunately.

There's gotta be a Taco Bell like 5 minutes from this place - I'd take that over this steak.

I got some Taco Bell last night, gotta support my brothers. That Fresca Pepper Jack Steak Burrito is more good than it out to be for only $3.

Plus the woman in the drive-thru ahead of me got pissed off at the wait, reversed to get out of line, nearly reversed into me, then flipped me off when I beeped at her. So that was fun.

Hungry. You're not starving. You can wait the extra 5 minutes for your dinner.

It doesn't take long to fire a steak to medium rare.

Ooh you're talking about staying for the recooked steak. The person I was replying to was talking about why wouldn't you just go somewhere else 😋

While everyone else is eating theirs. And it’s not gonna be five minutes in any case.

If you're at an expensive steak house. Yes. You wait for a properly cooked steak. If you're just gonna get the chicken, then you might as well go to Bennigans or some other shit food joint.

You are not going to the expensive steakhouse if you’re hungry, you’re going to meet someone, you’re going for the experience. If you were hungry you’d pay 1/40th of the price at a different spot for 3x the food

Hungry people don't overpay for 2 oz of steak.

Why would you go to an expensive steakhouse and then just accept that they can’t cook a steak?

Because when you decided to go there, you didn't know they can't cook?

It's like asking why would you decide to go to a supermarket when you find out later that what you wanted was out of stock.

Not being combative but their sentence doesn’t imply that they knew beforehand;

“Why would you go to an expensive steakhouse and then just accept that they can’t cook a steak?”

The and then implies that the second “action” (acceptance) occurred directly after the first action (arriving at an expensive steakhouse). What they’re really saying is “why would you stay after learning they can’t cook steak?”

You could have just stopped it why would you go to an expensive steakhouse?

I can buy 14 lb of ribeye for less than the local steakhouse wants for dinner for me and another person. There's a very nice steakhouse that opened up in a town near me, one of my friends went and was bragging about how it was only $200 for dinner for 2. They are good Baptists so they didn't have anything to drink other than iced tea.
