How to Create Your First Digital Menu with Rumizi

Getting your restaurant menu online doesn’t have to be complicated. With Rumizi, it takes three steps: scan your paper menu, upload it, and share your link. No design skills, no coding, and no recurring fees. Here’s how to go from paper to digital in just a few minutes.

Step 1: Photograph your menu

Take a clear photo of your existing paper menu using your smartphone or any camera. Make sure the text is readable and the entire menu (or the section you want online) fits in the frame. A few tips for the best results:

  • Use natural or bright lighting — avoid shadows across the text.
  • Hold the camera directly above the menu to minimize perspective distortion.
  • If your menu has multiple pages, photograph each one separately.

Step 2: Upload to Rumizi

Go to Rumizi and upload your photo. Our AI reads the text from your menu image and turns it into a clean, mobile-friendly digital menu. You don’t need to redesign anything — your existing menu becomes the basis for the online version. If you have multiple pages, upload them in order and they’ll be combined into a single menu.

Step 3: Share your link and QR code

Once your digital menu is ready, you get a unique link. Share it anywhere — on social media, your Google Business profile, in text messages, or on your website. You can also generate a QR code that points to your menu. Print it and place it on tables, at the counter, or near your entrance. When you update the menu later, the same link and QR code automatically show the new version — no reprinting needed.

What happens after you’re live?

Your digital menu isn’t a one-time setup. You can update it anytime by uploading a new image or editing items directly. Many restaurant owners start with a single page and expand over time — adding drink menus, seasonal specials, or multilingual versions. The goal is to get online quickly and improve as you go.
