Restaurant – el restaurante

To remember that restaurant is pronounced reh-stow-ran-tay (restaurante) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

The restaurant agreed we could rest our aunty (restaurante) there when she got tired during our shopping trip.

Restaurante is masculine, so it’s el restaurante. Imagine an elephant working as a waiter in a restaurant.
