What is the "Restaurant Tourist Menus" scam in Milan?

Question

Accepted Answer

Some restaurants near major sights present one menu to tourists (with inflated prices) and another to locals. Cover charges (coperto) may be added without disclosure. Always check whether the menu shows prices before ordering. Ask for the menu with prices before sitting down. Restaurants in Italy are legally required to display prices. If no prices are listed, walk away. Check recent reviews before entering any restaurant near major landmarks.
