¿Qué recomienda?

¿Qué recomienda?
What do you recommend?

Formality and address

This uses the formal "usted" conjugation, which is the standard, polite way to address service staff in most Spanish-speaking regions. If asking a friend, you would switch to the informal "tú" (¿Qué recomiendas?) or "vos" (¿Qué recomendás?).

When to use

This is ideal when you are unsure of the menu and want to discover a house specialty or a popular local dish.

Word breakdown

The phrase follows a simple interrogative pattern without needing an explicit subject pronoun.

  • ¿Qué?: The interrogative pronoun meaning 'what'.
  • recomienda: The third-person singular present tense of 'recomendar' (to recommend).

Written accents

The accent mark on "Qué" is mandatory because it functions as a question word. Without the accent, "que" acts as a relative pronoun or conjunction meaning 'that' or 'which'.

Notes

Gets a local recommendation. Neutral everyday wording.
