Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Under the new IRS regulations applicable since 2018, meals and entertainment expenses are no longer deductible. Until 2017, businesses could deduct up to 50% of the costs of meals and entertainment. A few exceptions still apply but are very specific (e.g.regarding public charities, or company picnics) but none apply to dinners at a nightclub.
