Getting your food to go

Para llevar

PAH-rah yeh-BAR — To take away / to go

"Un bocadillo de tortilla para llevar, por favor."
A Spanish omelette sandwich to go, please.

The opposite is "para tomar aquí" (to have here). Staff will often ask "¿para tomar aquí o para llevar?" — now you know both answers.
