Use this templateWhat to put on an Italian restaurant menu
- 1
Antipasti
Four or five small plates to share. Keep them light, so the table still has room for pasta.
- 2
Primi
Pasta, risotto and soup. Name the pasta shape, like paccheri, and say if it's made in house.
- 3
Secondi
Meat and fish mains. Say what comes with each, or point to the contorni.
- 4
Contorni
Roast potatoes, greens and a salad, ordered on the side.
- 5
Dolci
Three or four is plenty. A sweet from your region, like babĂ from Naples, sets you apart.
- 6
House wine
By the glass and the carafe, then limoncello or an amaro.

Questions about an Italian restaurant menu
Italian or English dish names?
Both. Keep the Italian name guests look for, add a short English line, and check the accents.
Do I have to use antipasti, primi and secondi?
No. Appetizers, Pasta and Mains work too, and guests new to Italian food may find them clearer.
Can I mark pasta gluten-free?
Only if it leaves the kitchen gluten-free. Gluten-free pasta boiled in shared water isn't.
