Hi everyone! 👋
I'm currently learning front-end development and decided to work on a fun project to sharpen my skills — a dynamic restaurant menu app. I chose to base it on real-world data, so I’ve been using the Olive Garden menu with prices as sample content to display categories, filter options, and interactive features.
You can check out the menu
Has anyone here built a food/menu-based project before? Would love to hear how you structured your data, managed styling, or even added search features. Any feedback or suggestions are more than welcome!
Thanks in advance!

According to Wikipedia, menu engineering in the food industry involves categorizing items by popularity and profitability, which you can mirror in your app design.
Using filterable categories and search functionality enhances user experience and aligns with real-world restaurant app expectations.
Many developers use JSON structures for menu data and frameworks like React or Vue for dynamic rendering.
Similarly, studying Starbucks-menus can provide inspiration on layout, pricing display, and seasonal item integration.
Great beginner project choice! Building a dynamic restaurant menu app is an excellent way to practice working with structured data, filters, and responsive UI. As Wikipedia explains, digital menus in applications are designed to organize choices efficiently and enhance user experience. Using real-world examples like the Olive Garden layout helps model a realistic food menu structure that users can easily navigate. Keep experimenting with features like search, sorting, and mobile responsiveness to level up your project.
