About MenuLedger

Restaurant information tends to be scattered. A menu may live in a PDF, current hours on a location page, and an older price list may still appear in search results. MenuLedger exists to put the useful pieces together and show when they were checked.

Why we built it

Choosing a restaurant often starts with a simple question: what is actually on the menu? We wanted an answer that did not depend on invented descriptions, copied reviews, or a price presented without its date. The result is a small independent publication built around readable menu records.

Each listing starts with the restaurant’s own published information wherever possible. Menu sections are organized by hand, separate locations remain separate, and a missing fact is allowed to stay missing. That is less flashy than filling every box, but it is more useful.

What the dates mean

A “menu checked” date records the last source review. It is not a claim that the restaurant made no change afterward. Prices, hours, and availability can move quickly, so important details should still be confirmed directly.

What we do not claim

MenuLedger is not a large newsroom and inclusion is not an endorsement. We do not turn source research into a fictional restaurant visit. If an article is based on published material, its reporting label says so. Advertising, if enabled, does not decide which restaurants appear or how they are described.

Corrections are part of the work

Menus change. Readers and restaurant owners can send a correction from a listing or use the contact page. A submission enters a private review queue; it does not alter the public record until the source has been checked.
