How to say "I want to order this" in Chinese

The structure is 我想 (I want to) + 点 (to order) + 这个 (this one). 点 is the verb specifically for ordering food or drinks. 这个 means 'this' and is used when pointing at something.

Use this when you're ready to order and want to point at a specific item on the menu. It's casual and friendly, suitable for any restaurant. You can also say 我要这个 (wǒ yào zhège) which is more direct, but 我想点这个 is more polite. Don't forget to point or indicate clearly, as 这个 relies on context.
