One menu digitale for every table, in Italian, English, German and 21 more languages. Allergens on every dish, the coperto listed with its price, the piatto del giorno live before service, all changed from your phone.
Use a menu digitale you edit yourself rather than a PDF. With doXmenu you build the menu in Italian, mark allergens on every dish as Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 asks, list the coperto with its price, and switch on English, German and French for tourists on the same QR code. The first month is free; then 12.99€ a month on the yearly plan.
Your logo, colours, fonts, background and dish photos, so a trattoria looks like itself and not like software. There is no generic template.
No separate menu turistico: the same dishes at the same prices for everyone, in Italian, English, German, French, Spanish, Russian and more, switched with one tap.
Cacio e pepe stays cacio e pepe. The description is translated automatically, and a line you correct by hand is never overwritten.
Mark allergens on each dish and update them when a recipe changes, with no reprint: a practical help with Regulation (EU) 1169/2011.
Upload photos or a PDF of your current menu and AI builds a draft in a few minutes, translated into your other menu languages. You check it and publish.
Your menu and your data sit on Amazon Web Services servers in Frankfurt, Germany.
All 24 menu languages are included in the price. Guests switch language with one tap, and a line you correct by hand stays as you wrote it.
Bars, restaurants and canteens must inform guests about allergens for non-prepacked food too (Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 and Article 19 of Legislative Decree 231/2017). Leaving it out is fined 3,000€ to 24,000€; information that does not comply, 1,000€ to 8,000€.

Several Italian platforms have a free plan, usually with limits on dishes, languages or menus. doXmenu has no forever-free plan: the first month is free with every feature and no credit card, then it costs from 12.99€ a month.
Yes, that is the recommended setup. Keep the name in Italian in every language and let the description explain the dish to international tables; a line you correct by hand is never overwritten by auto-translation.
It helps. Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 and Legislative Decree 231/2017 ask restaurants and bars to inform guests about allergens; with doXmenu you mark them on each dish and guests see them in their language. Industry guidance adds that QR-code information must be easy and immediate to consult. Accuracy and the documentation stay with the venue.
12.99€ a month on the yearly plan (155.88€ a year), 13.99€ a month billed every 6 months, or 14.99€ month to month, VAT depending on your country. Every plan has every feature and all 24 languages, with no commission and no fee per table.
From Roman trattorias to Venetian bacari: how Italian venues use the menu digitale. One honest menu instead of a menu turistico, the allergen rules with their sources, and a setup that takes minutes.
A practical checklist for choosing a menù QR platform in Italy: translations that keep dish names Italian, the allergen rules, wine lists, and what the free and paid plans really cost.
A QR code menu is a restaurant menu guests open on their own phone by scanning a code on the table. How it works, what it costs, how to make one, and real examples.
Upload photos or a PDF of your menu and AI builds the draft, or add your dishes yourself. Pick a style, put the QR code on your tables. The first month is free.
