Talk about the food!
I don't expect you to list every single item, but you must write about those dishes you've actually tried, whether or not you liked it, and why. You should also mention the most popular dishes and include information about the ingredients used in Italian cooking. You could also explain about the Open Kitchen.
More opinions, fewer facts!
In the days of the Internet, it's pretty simple to just go to any restaurant's website to see what they offer. But you can write a review that offers something their website cannot: an unbiased opinion on the food. Aside from food, you can give your opinions on other aspects of the restaurant as well, like the service, the prices, and the decor. But however you do it, be sure to give us some opinions with the review, and not just a long laundry list of facts.
3. Think about your audience!
Readers of your review want to know whether or not they should go to this restaurant, so through your writing you want to make them feel like they’ve experienced the restaurant themselves.
4. Think about Structure!
Write in chronological order, think about entering the restaurant, dining, service, watching the chef cook and the surroundings: music, décor, lighting. You can also consider the following elements: ingredients, presentation, preparation, freshness, variety of choice and the taste of the dishes you tried.
5. Think about the Mechanics!
Write in present tense
Second person “You enter into…”
Use passive voice “The pasta sauce is prepared in…”Use range of sentence types and vary openers
