Splitting the bill evenly is fastest, right up until the person who had tap water and a small plate does the math and realizes they paid for everyone else's cocktails.

Start freeIf everyone ordered roughly the same tier of food and drink, split evenly and move on — item-by-item math for a €60 dinner between four friends isn't worth the ten minutes it takes.
When one person had three drinks and a steak while another had water and a side salad, splitting evenly stops feeling casual and starts feeling unfair. Assign each item, split shared starters equally, then split tax and tip proportionally across each person's actual total.
Whichever method you pick, a photo of the itemized receipt means nobody has to reconstruct who ordered what from memory five minutes later — and it settles any disagreement instantly if one comes up.
