Frequently Asked Questions

Which restaurants are featured on Menu to Taste?

We feature Michelin-starred restaurants (1–3 stars), World's 50 Best and Asia's 50 Best Top 100, La Liste scores of 90 or higher, and James Beard Award winners (US only).

Where do the menus come from?

Menus are extracted from each restaurant's official website or verified published sources. We capture every dish, wine, and cocktail with descriptions and prices when available.

How often are menus updated?

Menus are reconciled on a rolling cadence. Items no longer on the current menu are marked inactive with a last-seen date rather than deleted.

Does Menu to Taste fabricate dish names or descriptions?

No. A database trigger blocks any generic or templated dish name from being inserted. Every item is traceable to a verified source.

How does the AI search work?

Each menu item has a 384-dimensional semantic embedding. Natural-language queries are embedded and matched against the catalog so you can search by flavor, technique, or style — not just keywords.
