What is the meaning of expression you dine in

The expression "you dine in" means that you eat your meal at the restaurant itself, rather than taking it away or having it delivered.

Here's how it's used:

* Restaurant staff: "Would you like to dine in or take out?"

* Friend: "I'm craving Italian. Do you want to dine in at that new place downtown?"

The phrase implies a more leisurely and enjoyable dining experience, often associated with a sit-down meal with table service.
