Pedir a conta.

To ask for the bill.

To request the check for items consumed.

🌍

문화적 배경

The '10%' is almost always included. If you ask for the bill, it will show the 'subtotal' and the 'taxa de serviço'. You pay the total. It is common to ask for a 'fatura com número de contribuinte' (tax ID) when asking for the bill to get tax rebates. In both countries, it is considered slightly rude to split the bill down to the cent with the waiter. Usually, one person pays or the total is divided equally.

💡

The Hand Gesture

If the restaurant is loud, make eye contact with the waiter and pretend to write on your hand. They will understand immediately.

⚠️

Don't shout

Avoid shouting 'Garçom!' across the room. A raised hand or a quiet 'Licença' is much more polite.
