What to expect at an Italian restaurant
Italian restaurants in the US span two related traditions: Italian-American cooking – red sauce, chicken parmigiana, baked ziti and generous portions that grew out of immigrant neighborhoods – and regional Italian cooking that follows the menus of Rome, Tuscany, Sicily or Emilia-Romagna more closely, often with fresh pasta made in house.
What to order
- Fresh pasta – look for dishes marked “house-made”
- Chicken or eggplant parmigiana – the Italian-American classic
- Antipasti or burrata – good for sharing at the start of the meal
- Risotto – made to order, so expect a short wait
Good to know
- Weekend dinners at popular Italian restaurants often need a reservation.
- Ask about the daily specials – fish and fresh pasta specials are often the kitchen’s best work.
- Many Italian-American restaurants offer half portions of pasta or family-style platters for groups.
