It's not hard at all. Obviously things are very location dependent, but here is what I would call a "nice but not fancy" restaurant in downtown Austin, TX: https://www.tavernabylombardi.com/austin-downtown-menu#menu=.... First, note that "100+ per person" really means the total comes to 75-80 per person before tax and tip. It's not hard to hit that with a glass of 1 alcoholic beverage, some shared appetizers, a main course, and a shared dessert.

To emphasize, there are obviously cheaper restaurants, and given how much it costs to live in Austin, I'm not bemoaning their prices. I'm just saying that pre-pandemic I would have thought of a $100+ meal in Austin as "very fancy, special occasion" place, and now it's easy to hit that at tons of places in Austin. I used to eat out a lot more at places like the above when it was ~$60 pre-pandemic, but it's not worth it to me at $100+.
