Wix Restaurants: Setting Up Wix Restaurants Menus (New)

Create your menu with a clear name and description, then add sections to organize your items. For a faster setup, use AI to convert menu photos into a neat, online version automatically, saving you time and effort.

Once your menu is set up, you can customize individual items. For example, you can offer salads with or without chicken, in different sizes, and at various prices. You can also add labels like "Spicy" or "Gluten-Free" to help your customers.
