How to create a digital menu for your restaurant
Create and publish your restaurant menu online, keep dish information up to date and let customers view it from their smartphones.
Create your digital menuWhat is a digital menu for restaurants?
A digital menu for restaurants is an online page containing sections, dishes and their details. Customers can open it in their smartphone browser, including by scanning the QR code provided by the restaurant. This keeps the menu accessible without asking customers to install an app.
How the RistoSmart FM digital menu works
STEP 1
Create and organise your menu
Create your menu sections and arrange them in the order you want customers to see.
STEP 2
Add dishes, prices and information
Add a name, description, price and allergen information for each dish.
STEP 3
Publish and share the QR code
Publish the menu and share its QR code so customers can view it from a smartphone.
Update dishes and prices without reprinting the menu
When a price changes, a dish is no longer available or you want to revise a description, you can edit the published menu. Its public address stays the same, so you can keep using the same QR code instead of reprinting the menu after every update.
A QR code menu for smartphone viewing
You can place the QR code on tables or anywhere else in the venue where you want customers to access the menu. Customers scan it with their smartphone camera and open the restaurant’s public page, where they can read the sections, dishes, prices and other information you have added.
Translations and multilingual menus
RistoSmart FM Menu lets you manage translations for sections, dish names and descriptions. The available language versions help international customers view the restaurant’s multilingual menu and understand the published information more easily.
Allergen information and dish details
Each dish can include a name, description, price and allergens selected through dedicated fields. These details appear with the dish in the digital menu, giving customers one place to view the information provided by the restaurant.

Classic menu, wine list and daily menu
The same project lets you manage several types of customer-facing content while keeping each part of the restaurant’s offering separate:
Classic menu
Organise courses into sections and add dishes, descriptions, prices and allergen information.
Wine list
Create a dedicated wine list organised into categories, with details for each bottle.
Daily menu
Prepare daily offers with dishes, information and an availability period.
Why use a digital menu in your restaurant?
A digital menu helps restaurant owners keep customer-facing content organised and up to date. Dishes, prices, descriptions, translations and allergen information can be managed in one place, while the restaurant’s QR code menu remains accessible from smartphones through its public address.
