Which languages can my menu be translated into?

27 languages: most of Europe (Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Greek, Dutch, the Nordics, Polish, Czech, and more) plus Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Hindi, and Turkish.

Are the AI translations accurate?

AI produces a strong first draft, and you stay in charge: every line is shown to you for review, you can edit anything, and only lines you approve appear to guests. Anything unapproved falls back to your original wording.

Do I need a separate QR code for each language?

No. One QR code opens the menu and guests pick their language from the flag bar. If you want to hand a French guest a French menu directly, every language also has its own link and QR code you can print or share.

Do I have to translate the whole menu before it goes live?

No. Approved lines show translated and the rest falls back to your original text, so you can translate your best sellers today and the wine list next week.

What happens when I change a dish?

Its translations are flagged for review so they never quietly drift out of date. The previously approved wording stays live until you update it.

Does it work for printed menus and TV displays too?

Yes. PDF and image exports can be produced in any language you've added, and TV displays can run in any of them.

Menu translations are included on paid plans at no extra cost, with no per word or per language fees. Every new account can try them on the free 14 day Professional trial.

How to make a multilingual menu

Publish your menu. Build it in Menu Author, or import it from a PDF, photos, pasted text, or a spreadsheet, and publish it to its own web page.
Add a language. Pick from 27 languages. AI drafts a translation for every dish name, description, and section title on the menu.
Review and approve. Read the suggestions line by line, edit anything, and approve what goes live. Nothing you haven't approved is ever shown to guests.
Guests switch with a tap. A small flag bar appears on your published menu. Each language also gets its own link and QR code.

AI drafts it, you sign off

Machine translated menus have a reputation, and it comes from nobody checking the output. Menu Author splits the job: AI does the tedious part (drafting a translation for every dish, description, and section), and you do the part that needs judgment. Suggestions appear side by side with your original text, you edit whatever misses the mark, and you approve line by line. Anything you haven't approved simply shows your original wording, so a half-finished language is still a correct menu. And when you change a dish later, its translations are flagged for a fresh look instead of quietly going stale.

One QR code, every language

Your existing QR code menu doesn't change: guests scan the same code, see the menu in its original language, and switch from a small flag bar at the top. Each language is also a page of its own, so you can print a dedicated QR code for the hotel lobby's German guests, share the French link on social media, embed a specific language on your website, or run a TV display in any language you've added. PDF and image exports work per language too, so the printed menu can match.

Found in every language

Every language version is announced to search engines with proper language tags, so a guest searching in French can land directly on the French menu. Translated pages are served as fast, lightweight pages just like the original, and the language bar works on any phone with no app to download.

Built for tourist season

If you run a taverna in Santorini, a bistro in Lisbon, or a hotel restaurant anywhere, most of your guests don't read the local language, and handing them a phone with a translation app open is not hospitality. A menu in the guest's own language reads better, sells better, and gets the order right the first time. Add the languages your guests actually speak before the season starts, and update dishes all summer without touching the translations workflow.
