Food minimum $x++

I think that usually refers to the fact the listed cost doesn't include taxes, fees, and gratuities.

If they are difficult to reach before you sign a contract, move on. That is a sign of how communicative they will be during the planning process after you commit. Only they can tell you what their price list means and includes.

I agree with the pp. If they have been difficult to get a hold of then they would not be the best place to go ahead with. Also, I would think that any marks like that on prices could mean they would change the prices as they see fit. I would be careful with this place if I were you .

Sometimes symbols like that refer to fine print at the bottom or end of the brochure, is there anything like that on there?

I'd 100% recommend getting that spelled out before signing anything. Whether it's a fine print symbol like Ashlee mentioned or it means that their minimum may change, you don't want to be on the hook for way more than you planned.

Adding ++ to the end of a price essentially means plus taxes and fees (aka a service charge). I'd ask them to clarify - taxes are easy to estimate as they'd be determined by the state, but the company would determine the amount service fee.
