Just how expensive is Prime + Proper?  LoveFood.com lays it out like this,

This fancy modern spot has suitably high prices, with a wagyu strip steak costing a hefty $200 for 12oz. Slightly more affordable is the porterhouse ($200 but big enough to share), and the whole Dover sole, priced at $80. These are quality ingredients impeccably prepared, so nothing is cheap.

If you're living the high life and would like some caviar while dining at this fancy restaurant that I could never afford, you'd better be loaded.  Caviar at Prime + Proper will range anywhere from $95 to nearly $200 an ounce.

If you are a normal person with normal money and you're meeting a slightly more financially stable friend or family member at this restaurant for dinner, you could try the $48 Mac and Cheese with a $6.30 bottle of Sprite.  Bon appetite!
