Italian menus -- frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a trattoria and a ristorante?

A trattoria is traditionally the more casual, family-run option with simpler pricing; a ristorante implies a fuller-service, often pricier experience. In the U.S. the line is blurry, but menu prices are still a reasonable guide.

Why do some Italian menus list pasta prices without a protein?

Many trattorias price pasta as a standalone course (primi) separate from meat or fish (secondi), following the traditional Italian multi-course structure. Adding a protein is usually an upcharge.

Is 'Italian-American' the same as Italian?

No -- Italian-American dishes like chicken parm, garlic bread, and spaghetti and meatballs were developed by immigrant communities in the U.S. and rarely appear on menus in Italy itself.
