Do you spend more or less on a kid's birthday gift depending on where the party is being held?

Like would you buy a more expensive gift if you knew that the party was being held at an expensive restaurant vs an at home party or kiddie place?

Do you try to buy a gift that will cover your plate?

We have a first bday party coming up at a very fancy restaurant. I was originally going to buy a decent ticket priced toy (~$75) but now I'm thinking we should spend more?

I usually try and stick to the 50$ range for 1st birthdays, but I never really have been to one at a fancy place like that.

nope, its $25 a kid, unless it is either of my nephews.
