Abstract: Food services are basic services of the tourism offer. Unlike the other elements of the tourism product sold to a visitor, the offer of food units target to a high extent the residents. The habit to satisfy the need of food & beverage in specialized units, concept known under the name of “dining-out”, records in Romania a lower spread in comparison with developed states. This situation is determined by the low level of incomes, the lack of the lunch break with a duration of at least one hour in the working program of many companies which could favor serving the meal in a food unit, etc, but also the concern of the restaurants to satisfy the demand for events (weddings, baptisms, etc) or satisfying the needs of socialization and amusement of population during evenings. The article aims to highlight the opinions and attitudes of young consumers from Romania regarding the food service consumption, the elements which determine the decision to eat in a restaurant and the issues that might favor this action.
