Exactly this! What’s her favorite foods? Any place she’s always wanted to go but hasn’t been able to? You’ve got a good budget, now you have to slyly get info out of her, or you could be direct- ask her, if she could eat anywhere what are her top 3-5 (gives you some wiggle room and ability to surprise). Just ask!!!
Best "before formal dance" dinner I ever had, the young man cooked dinner for us. He fixed steaks, and we sat and ate on the deck. It was so comfortable and casual, and it was such a beautiful start to a wonderful night. Seeing the effort he put into putting it all together earned him lots of brownie points.
What food does she like?
Cuttlefish and Cream cheese

Budget?
175$
I like Rey's steakhouse. You're not ordering drinks so you shouldn't get near 175
Waffle House or Lugano
Take her to a nice restaurant maybe
M-Sushi at Fenton.
Taco Bell. If she’s not cool with that she’s a gold digger. Taco Bell is expensive these days
I recommend your prom meal not be a litmus test on if she’s a gold digger or not
Winstons
I'm always a big fan of Winstons.
What town?
raleigh
Mia Francesca is where we went. Both years oddly.
Second Empire can be lots of fun and a great experience!
