リーズナブル

りーずなぶる
na-adjective
reasonable (in price)
descriptive
1. reasonable, affordable, fairly priced
Describes a price that is fair and not excessively high, suggesting good value for money. In Japanese, this word is almost exclusively used to describe prices, unlike English where 'reasonable' has broader meanings.
この(みせ)リーズナブルで美味(おい)しい
This restaurant is reasonably priced and delicious.
You can eat lunch at a reasonable price.
An affordable Italian restaurant just opened in front of the station, so let's try it sometime.

False friend: In English, "reasonable" has many meanings (sensible, fair, logical), but in Japanese, リーズナブル is used almost exclusively to describe prices. You cannot say リーズナブルな意見(いけん) to mean "a reasonable opinion" — use 合理的(ごうりてき)な or 妥当(だとう)な instead.
