You can eat anything you want but it might be easier to chew softer foods with partial dentures. You can use denture adhesives to keep your partial denture in place if they are not stable.
It depends on how well the partials work for you, the design of the partial, condition of the remaining teeth, and how much effort you want to put in to learn how to use it right. Some people can eat steak and others can only eat as far as a boiled egg.
Hello,
This is not an easy question. There are a number of factors that need to be considered. Basically, it’s trial and error. If you find that while you try to eat something you experience pain then don’t eat it, or try smaller pieces/bites. There may be a certain food that you may not be able to eat. Example: corn

You should be able to eat with a partial as long as it has good retention.
The longer a patient wears and becomes adapted to partial dentures the more they likely eat what they choose,; hard textures (candy, almonds, beef jerky) are traditionally difficult and usually avoided.
