About Meet My Menu

Menus should not require sight.

Meet My Menu helps blind and low-vision diners hear restaurant menus and ask questions about dishes by voice.

Use a phone browser to scan a paper menu or find one online. The app reads what it finds aloud and is designed to say when information may be incomplete.


How it works

From menu to conversation.

  1. Start with the menu in front of youScan a printed menu with your phone. The app gives spoken guidance while it captures the page.
  2. Or find a restaurant menu onlineSearch by restaurant name or paste a menu link when you do not have a paper menu in hand.
  3. Listen and ask follow-up questionsHear dishes, prices, and details at your own pace. Ask about ingredients, preferences, or something you want to compare.

What to expect

A few honest answers.

Can it confirm a dish is safe for an allergy?

No. It can surface ingredients and allergen details it finds, but diners should always confirm with restaurant staff.

Will every online menu be complete and current?

No. Restaurant pages can be incomplete or out of date. Meet My Menu should say when it may not have the whole menu.

Do I need to download anything?

No. Meet My Menu runs in a phone browser.
