Running a second location shouldn't mean running a second everything. The whole point of a digital menu is that one account can hold every branch — each with its own prices, currency, and languages — while you manage them from a single login and clone a proven menu to a new opening instead of rebuilding it. Here is how to set up and run multiple branches without the menu becoming a full-time job.
Almost no dish is really one fixed thing. It comes in sizes, with a choice of side, or with extras a guest can add. Modifier groups capture that — and done well, they are one of the most natural upsell tools you have, with no pressure on your staff. Here is how to set up options the right way: the two types, when each fits, and how to price them so the check grows without annoying anyone.

Here is how to structure yours so the dishes you want to sell are the ones guests see first.
The slowest way to build a digital menu is to type ninety items into a blank screen. You already have a menu — on paper, in a PDF, in a spreadsheet — and the fastest path is to turn what exists into a draft and clean it up. Here are the three ways to digitize a restaurant menu, when to use each, and the review step that keeps prices from going live wrong.
A digital menu is the one piece of marketing every guest actually reads, and the only one you can fix from your phone between covers. Here is the exact order of operations I use to take a restaurant from a paper menu to a fast, photo-rich, multilingual QR menu in an afternoon — and the small decisions at each step that separate a menu that just works from one that quietly sells more.
