One of Philadelphia’s newest restaurants has a new requirement that has social media buzzing. Steak 48 on Broad and Spruce Streets has been busy all Wednesday evening. A diverse group of diners told us that they were reminded of the substantial minimum by staff once inside.

The tweets were mostly comical, some inquisitive, as a discussion over a Philadelphia steakhouse’s minimum price tag went viral on Wednesday.

It started when the account belonging to Philly’s “The Realest Podcast Ever” tweeted a photo of a sign on Steak 48’s, door, noting a $100 food and beverage minimum per person.
