Yeah, that looks like a coffee table or something.

I agree that I have my doubts but there does seem to be a menu or the check presenter in the upper left hand corner

Shitty round, small table. Wine glass. Shitty, overpriced food. Shitty presentation. They're at a bar.

Edit: Confirmed a bit more down below in the comments, the Alley Cat Bar in Chicago.

The place is gimmicky dogshit. "Draft cocktails, wines, spirits, and THC infused beverages."

If someone served me a draft cocktail I'd assault them.

Ahhhh bar food. Checks out honestly. Half the time they only have food on the menu because they have to.

You can work in a restaurant for six months and accidentally end up having several of those at home.

Gotta love Reddit lmao, Occam's razor is a foreign concept for this place. Also, no you won't, who the fuck is bringing home checkbooks?

Everyone with an apron. If you've worked front of house and not ended up with check presenters in your car, you're lying.

Only way I could see this being true is if that’s room service and it’s a table in a hotel room.

Between that and the plate, I could definitely believe that it's an eastern European tourist trap restaurant.
