The time/opportunity cost of a disappointing meal is the worst part really. The high price just adds insult to injury. In DC new places would open up all the time with great reviews and word of mouth and prob 2/3rd of the time they were really meh. Can't really get that time & excitement back.

It's undeniable that price factors into overall enjoyment though. Your lizard brain is always thinking about it. But the way I see it is, if it's a rare occasion, then it doesn't really matter whether it's $100 or $200 in the grand scheme. But if it's a regular spot, then the difference really adds up. I have a cheap local place that I've gone to prob 300 times in my life. If their prices were just 50c higher, that would cost me as much as an entire $150 tasting menu. I know some people are regulars at expensive restaurants but I doubt that's any of us.
