iStock/Thinkstock(ATLANTIC CITY, N.Y.) — A New Jersey man faced serious sticker shock when he saw the charge for a bottle of wine at Bobby Flay Steak at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
Joe Lentini says he was at a group dinner when he asked his server for a wine recommendation, telling her he doesn’t know wine.
According to Lentini, she pointed to a bottle on the menu and “she said to me ’37-50.'” To Lentini, that meant $37.50– but the wine actually cost $3,750.
The Borgata says Lentini had asked for “their best bottle” of Cabernet and that the server and sommelier both verified that they wanted the bottle before the group drank it.
Because of the miscommunication, the restaurant dropped the price to $2,200.
