No. It means that everyone else that eats here thinks if you have to ask how much something is, you can't afford it. It's probably a prix fixe menu, so they just charge the same amount per person and you order off the menu. Like we'd each pick one appetizer, one entree, and one dessert. But I bet the drinks are extra.

[She takes the drink menu and notes there are absolutely no prices there either. Huh. This place is expensive expensive. There's no time to lament over that though, because the waiter timidly comes back.]

I'm so sorry to interrupt, sir, but did you and the madam decide on drinks?

[Drinks are so extra. They don't have the money for this.

It's not like they were intending on paying anyway.

We'll have a bottle of the red.

[As if there's only one on there. She'll let him figure out which one she means.]

We also need two waters, and I believe he was hoping for a mixed drink. Weren't you?

[If Johnnie wants something specific, she figures he can just say it now and they can take their time enjoying everything.]
