Build the menu
The owner manages dishes, categories, rooms and menus.
How it works
The domain supports multiple active menus per room and ordered dish/category associations.
Digital menu platform for restaurants
A restaurant menu platform with dish editing, translations, QR access and subscriptions.
Project overview
What the service does
A subscription-based digital-menu product. A venue manager maintains dishes and languages in an admin app; guests open the published menu from a QR/table link. Subscription state controls product access, and guest reviews go through moderation.
Restaurants need to update menus, languages and table links without asking guests to install or update an app.
Who uses it
Restaurant and café owners or managers maintaining menus, plus guests viewing a menu on their phone.
Input
- Venue, rooms and tables, dish categories and translated dish text.
- QR link and current subscription state.
- Guest review submissions.
Output
- A public menu for the selected venue or table.
- Subscription and invoice state reflected in the management app.
- Reviews awaiting moderation or published after review.

02 / System architecture
Main components and their roles
Localize content
Menu content is prepared for different guest languages.
How it works
The language-model adapter sends dish and category text for batch translation and saves each result in the selected language.
Manage access
Subscription state determines product availability.
How it works
Customer, subscription and invoice webhooks update the subscription state shown in the management app.
Serve the guest
A QR link opens the menu for the venue or table.
How it works
Table → room → venue routing resolves active menus. This is a digital-menu workflow, not an implemented meal checkout.
Collect feedback
Guest feedback enters a moderation workflow.
How it works
Authenticated guest review creation and owner/admin moderation are separate operations.
03 / Implementation details
Engineering decisions
Separate manager and guest apps
Managers edit venues, rooms and menus; guests open a public menu from a QR link.
Connect tables to menus
A table QR link resolves the room and the active menu shown to the guest.
Connect subscriptions to access
Payment-provider events update the subscription state used by the application.
