It's very common in the US, at least the parts I've been. It depends on the restaurant, of course, but most places will provide a takeout box to take home uneaten food if you ask.
In fact, it's not uncommon for the waiter to offer a box unprompted if you have a fair amount of leftover food.
- GoodbyeMrChips 4y ago> in the US Ah, this makes sense. I recall eating in US restaurants and being given ridiculously large portions... something we half-joked - half-seriously suggested was down to the size of some of the patrons. Presumably is it instead the expectation that some of the food is taken home.
- goatcode 4y ago>Presumably is it instead the expectation that some of the food is taken home. I'd imagine that it might differ based on where you are. Remember that the US is pretty close in size to the entirety of Western Europe. There are a lot of different places here.
- asdff 4y agoFor some types of food if I order takeout and I finish the entire portion in one go, I'm extremely disappointed
