Potrebbe prenotarmi un tavolo per stasera?

Could you book a table for this evening?

Pronunciación

'Stasera' — stress the second syllable: 'sta-SE-ra'. It is one word meaning 'this evening'.

Cuándo usarla

Ask the concierge to make a restaurant reservation on your behalf. This is a core concierge service and they will often get priority bookings.

Qué significa

'Prenotarmi un tavolo' = 'to book a table for me'. 'Tavolo' is the table; 'per stasera' = for tonight. Italian restaurants almost always require reservations, especially at dinner. Walk-ins are possible but risky.

Nota cultural

Dinner in Italy typically starts later than in northern Europe or the US — 8:00 to 9:30 pm is normal. Restaurants often have two seatings. Arriving before 7:30 pm may mean eating alone among tourists; locals arrive later.
