The restaurants are
listed alphabetically within the above 5 categories. These categories
are an overall guideline, rather than an exact definition of the
establishments.
IVA (value-added tax) at 10 per cent is included in restaurant prices
but is usually added to the prices before they are quoted.
A 15 per cent service charge is usually added to the bill. Romans
are not very generous with tips but an additional 10 per cent on
top of the bill if the meal and service have been good is very much
appreciated.
The prices quoted below are for an average three-course meal per
person and for a bottle of house wine or equivalent, they include
IVA but do not include service charge or tip. Adding a primo piatto
(pasta course) will increase one’s bill by about 30%.
Note: in a few months time, the Buddha Bar (fusion cooking) will
open a branch in the centre of Milan. Details are still scanty but
this will be the new trendiest restaurant in the city. |
