It's quite easy actually. Take globefish for example. It's not the best sushi place, certainly not the worst though, and their prices are pretty average for this city. Maybe I eat more than most guys when I go for sushi, I don't know, but I'm not a very big guy myself. So a typical meal for me and my date would look like this:
Gyoza - $6
Two "expensive" rolls - $15 x 2 = $30
Two cheap rolls - $6 x 2 = $12
nigiri sushi - $2.50 x 10 = $25
Bottle of saki - $40
Total - $113
Total plus tax - $118.35
Total plus tax and 20% tip - $142
That gets each person about 16 pieces of sushi, a couple Gyoza and half a 300 mL bottle of saki.
