How much will you pay for restaurant corkage?

67.188.166.191

...these days restaurant wine mark-ups seem very high so I often bring a bottle of my own wine to dinner.

I have seen corkage fees range from $10 to $25 in a high end place locally.

But I was floored in New Orleans this past weekend at Commander's Palace.

Their fee is $10 per person drinking the wine up to $40 per bottle and we had 4 drinking it.

I had picked up a 2013 Seghesio Old Vines at the local grocery store for $23. It was $65 on their wine list so I saved $2.
