Reba is right, you will have a hard time to find a good restaurant for cheap here in the US. If you go to McDonald's, it can cost about 5 to 8 dollars per person, or 20 to 32 dollars for 4 persons.

If you go to a nice all you can eat buffet, it usually costs 10 dollars per person, so it will be 40$ for a group of 4 persons, but no tips because you serve yourself.

If you go to a middle-priced restaurant such as Outback (Australian Steakhouse), TGIF, Chilis, Applebees, Uno, etc... and also drink a glass of wine with your meal, it would probably cost you about 15$ to 20$ for the meal per person. A group of four persons would cost about 60 to 80 dollars. Then on top of that, you give a tip of $12 to $14, totalling it to $72 to $94 for the meal alone.

So, if you really want to avoid yourself the pleasure of fine restaurants in America because you don't want to pay the tip, then you will be very limited with your choices in the US, probably to terrible fast-food restaurants.
