2. Catering to Dietary Preferences:

Dietary preferences are diverse, and acknowledging them can significantly enhance your menu's appeal. Categorize and highlight vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or other diet-specific options. By doing so, you not only cater to a broader audience but also showcase your commitment to inclusivity and customer satisfaction.

  • Mr. Tomato teaches your staff exactly what ingredients are in each menu item, allowing your staff to effectively communicate dietary preferences to customers.

3. Staff and Guest Favorites:

Highlighting staff and guest favorites on the menu adds a personal touch and instills confidence in your customers' choices. Whether it's a signature dish recommended by your chef or a crowd-pleaser voted by customers, featuring these favorites creates a sense of trust and excitement.

  • Hint: Use Mr. Tomato’s AI smart feed and communication features to discover what your staff’s favorite dish is!
