How do I phrase a birthday invitation that lets my guests know that I am paying for the meal?

I am planning my 18th birthday party right now. I am inviting about 40-50 people to go out to a restaurant. On the invitation, I'd like to let them know in a subtle but clear way that I am paying for their meals. How should I phrase it?

Answer
I assume food is free at a dinner party if nothing is said on the invitation. I have received invitations that say "cash bar" or "a $20 donation toward food and beverages will be greatly appreciated." I have been to many potlucks when it's a given it's a communal effort. I guess you might find an invitation that says something like "eat drink and be merry on me" but where I'm from (NYC), an invitation saying that you cordially invite me to celebrate your birthday at X restaurant means it's on you. Happy birthday--you're very generous.
