Going to a fancy restaurant doesn't make you classy.
Focus on self improvement. Work on improving your grooming, come to work with well tailored and clean clothes. Be well read and talk in a pleasing manner. There are some things which you need to do to project confidence and charm.
Just spending money at a restaurant doesn't make you classy. These are one shot expenditures. Go there if you are interested in having an interesting culinary experience. But don't go there just to impress other people.
At the end of the day, people are impressed by people who project confidence.
Think about what your real goals are, and don't lose your way by trying to just impress randos at work.
