The menu dictates much about how an operation will be organized and managed, the extent to which it will meet its goals and even how the building itself should be designed. For guests, the menu is much more than just a list of available foods.
Menu is the statement of food and beverage items available or provided by food establishments primarily based on consumer demand and designed to achieve organizational objectives. It represents the focal point around which components of food service systems are based. The menu is designed carefully what the outlet wants to cater for, keeping in mind the type of clientele. The main advantage of a well-planned menu is that it leads to consumer satisfaction. It also helps to motivate the employees for a responsible and successful service
Menu planning is the most important aspect of planning and organization in the food industry. It is an advance plan of a dietary pattern over a given period of time.
Menu planning is one of the important managerial activities of food and beverages operations executed by a team comprising the entrepreneur/proprietor, the restaurant manager, and the executive chef. In a large hotel, the general manager and the food and beverage (F&B) manager will also be members of the team. In welfare catering operations, the head of the institution, the catering manager, and the finance manager will be involved. Menu planning calls for careful thought on many factors that would determine the success of the F&B operation. Menu forms the basis or acts as a guide upon which all other managerial and operational activities of F&B operations rest on.

Why a restaurant requires menu:
This act as bridge between the establishment and the customer.
This provides all necessary information’s regarding dishes available,
their price range and other rules and regulations.
This authenticates and gives guarantees to the customer for billing
purpose.
Due to Accent problem, the server may not pronounce some dishes
names correctly and create confusion. But menu lessens this type of
human error.
The server cannot recite the dishes available at the restaurant
several times. But this problem is solved because of the menu as
guest can refer it as necessary.
We can group different type of dishes in different category in a
menu card and hence, making easier for guest to select his favorite
by referring the section of his/her choice.
