Text alignment - Making a restaurant menu

Hello everyone I'm almost done with the menu but there is something that I cannot fix in anyway.

Basically in order to show dishes and prices, I made a vertical rectangle and typed in all the info.

TITLE                                                                               $20

a typical bla bla dish

TITLE                                                                              $15

a typical bla bla dish

The problem is that the prices don't align to one another and it looks very bad.

I tried to select prices and press align to "right", but that moves also the title for some reason.

TITLE                                                                              $15

a typical bla bla dish

Like this

TITLE                                                                            $15

a typical bla bla dish

I tried using simply the space bar but it moves it downwards.

What can I do to make everything work out?

Thank you in advance!

    Did you use Tabs to align them?

    Window > Type > Tabs
