I would say max 200 a month for our family. We simply dont have great restaurant choices by us.. Mainly we eat out if on the go or traveling.. A normal night at home we rarely go out or order in (almost zero).
there are only a few dining gems near us where I feel it's work the cost to eat their food, majority are places that serve processed crap, simply reheated, fried and put on a plate it seems....
I think that's our issue also. I live outside a major city that has great dining, but it's hell to get to from my suburb (30 miles). Around me it's just lots of chains. The mom and pop places aren't even really that good so we just don't. It kind of depesses me. If I lived up the road a bit, I think I'd be spending more. My son lives in San Diego and when we visit him, I just love it. I think if I lived in San Diego my dining out bill would be MUCH higher.
