The young couple, who have not been named, were outraged by the 695 euro bill on June 19 which included two plates of pasta, a bottle of water, a bottle of wine and a fruit salad. The service charge alone was 115 euros ($A201.14).

Their protests however were brushed off by the manager of the restaurant, located close to the tourist hub of Piazza Navona.
