If you're agreeable to sharing, I found on more than one occasion that 2 people ordering a la carte 1 large salad or vegetable dish and 1 meat or fish dish is similar in cost to a menu del dia each but you end up with more and better food.
If you can't eat an entire menú, either menú del día or menú peregrino, you can ask for a half menu at a reduced cost, which normally will consist of one plate/course, dessert and beverage. I would never ask to share a menú.
