Dutch.  In theory, I would pick a place like Panera Bread etc, La Madelaine etc, where the person is expected to get what they want/able to pay for.  I wouldn't assume the agent is going to pay for my meal.  Even if you are shopping for 900K house, the agent doesn't make money till the deal closes.  I can also imagine the conversation ....customer is searching for a 900K home and suggests lunch and looks for me to pay.

Since you picked a full service restaurant, it gets dicey, does someone ask for a separate check, does someone suggest you split it etc.  I guess of all the routes, the thing to do would be to look at the bill  with a "let me see how much I owe", figure out what you owe, pass the bill to the other person.  Both of you have reasons why it would make sense not to pay for everyone (realtor isn't paid yet by you, you think Someone will be splitting 63k I'm commission) and it seems more than reasonable that you only ordered what you were comfortable paying for so if you ordered an entree and someone else a sandwich, presumably the entree person can afford that and the sandwich person could afford that.
