Have you tried the pasta here?

我今晚好想吃披萨啊。

Wǒ jīn wǎn hǎo xiǎng chī pī sà a.

I'm really craving pizza tonight.

我们周五一定要预订。

Wǒmen Zhōuwǔ yīdìng yào yùdìng。

We should definitely make a reservation for Friday.

你有什么饮食禁忌需要我注意的吗?

Nǐ yǒu shénme yǐnshí jìnjì xūyào wǒ zhùyì de ma?

Do you have any dietary restrictions I should know about?

我想这次就点每日特价吧。

Wǒ xiǎng zhè cì jiù diǎn měi rì tè jià ba.

I think I'll go with the daily special this time.

如果我吃甜点，我通常就跳过开胃菜。

Rúguǒ wǒ chī tiándiǎn, wǒ tōngcháng jiù tiàoguò kāiwèicài.

I usually skip the appetizer if I'm having dessert.

你能推荐一款搭配鱼的好酒吗？

Nǐ néng tuījiàn yī kuǎn dāpèi yú de hǎo jiǔ ma?

Could you recommend a good wine pairing for the fish?

其实，我不太喜欢这个酱汁。

Qíshí, wǒ bù tài xǐhuān zhège jiàngzhī。

Actually, I didn't care for the sauce much.

这里的服务出乎意料地快，而且很友好。

Zhèli de fúwù chūhū yìliào de kuài, érqiě hěn yǒuhǎo.

The service here is surprisingly quick and friendly.

嗯，我更喜欢咸味，而不是甜味。

ǹg, wǒ gèng xǐhuān xiánwèi, ér bú shì tiánwèi.

Well, I prefer savory flavors over sweet ones.

你觉得这家新的实验餐厅怎么样？

Nǐ juéde zhè jiā xīn de shíyàn cāntīng zěnmeyàng?

What are your thoughts on this new experimental restaurant?

恐怕我对海鲜过敏。

Kǒngpà wǒ duì hǎixiān guòmǐn.

I'm afraid I have an allergy to shellfish.

我吃撑了，真不该点那第二份。

Wǒ chī chēng le, zhēn bù gāi diǎn nà dì èr fèn。

I'm completely stuffed to the gills; I shouldn't have ordered that second helping.

说实话，那个沙拉看起来比我的好多了。

Shuō shíhuà, nàge shālā kàn qǐlái bǐ wǒ de hǎo duōle。

That salad looks much better than mine, to be honest.

如果你想吃正宗的墨西哥菜，这里就是你一定要来的地方。

Rúguǒ nǐ xiǎng chī zhèngzōng de Mòxīgē cài, zhèlǐ jiù shì nǐ yīdìng yào lái de dìfang。

If you're looking for authentic Mexican, this is the place to hit up.

他们的菜单非常时令，这足以说明产品的新鲜度。

Tāmen de càidān fēicháng shílíng, zhè zúyǐ shuōmíng chǎnpǐn de xīnxiāndù。

Their menu is extremely seasonal, which really speaks to the freshness of the product.

我宁愿随便吃点，也不想坐下来吃正式的三道菜。

Wǒ nìngyuàn suíbiàn chī diǎn, yě bù xiǎng zuò xiàlái chī zhèngshì de sān dào cài。

I'd rather grab a quick bite than sit down for a formal three-course meal.

这位厨师真的把这个甜点的甜咸平衡得恰到好处。

Zhè wèi chúshī zhēnde bǎ zhège tiándiǎn de tián xián pínghéng de qiàdào hǎochù。

The chef really managed to strike a perfect balance between sweet and savory in this dessert.

在这附近很难找到一家又好又实惠的早餐店。

Zài zhè fùjìn hěn nán zhǎodào yī jiā yòu hǎo yòu shíhuì de zǎocān diàn.

It's tough to find a decent breakfast joint that doesn't cost an arm and a leg around here.

尽管评论很一般，但我认为这道菜的摆盘无可挑剔。

Jǐnguǎn píng lùn hěn yī bān, dàn wǒ rèn wéi zhè dào cài de bǎi pán wú kě tiāo tī。

Despite the mediocre reviews, I thought the presentation of the plate was impeccable.
