I went to a restaurant with no prices on the menu. Out of all restaurants what percentage would you say are like this? It was a very nice restaurant but why would they not put the price on the menu?

  1. Wow, I thought this antiquated practise had died out, or at least I'd hoped it had! As a previous person correctly told you, you  got  a copy of a ladies menu. Nothing annoyed me more when I was dating than to be handed one of those, especially since I would  often do the asking AND the paying .


  2. I would say that most if not all of the finer restaurants only give the menu with prices on it to the host.

  3. Some restaurant offer unpriced menus to guest when at a 'hosts' table, so they don't feel uncomfortable when ordering, the host usually recieves a menu with prices. Perhaps you had one of these.

    Other places, everything is the same  prices, eg: $12 meals.. prices unnecessary on the menu.

    The only other reason I would suggest is so that your choices of dinner are ONLY driven by the food, and not by the prices,

    Did you ask your maitre'd why this was the case. I'm sure in any country, in any transaction you are allowed to know how much something costs. Just ask.

  4. if you have to ask then you can't afford it.

  5. i have never seen one, but i would feel uncomfortable at one. It drives me nuts not to know what I'm paying for something( or someone else) I think it'd be rude to go on a date and order the most expensive thing on the menu

  6. You got yourself a "Ladies" menu; normally, when a guy takes a girl out, his menu will have the prices, but hers won't; it's based on the idea that you're taking her out, so she shouldn't have to worry about what it's going to cost, and a Money's no object for you, dear attitude. If you disagree, then you don't belong in this kind of restaurant; they are generally 3 star restaurants to 5 stars; out of your league on all levels. Sorry.
