Chef

Company Description GetMenu is a UAE-based restaurant ordering system that streamlines how guests place and confirm orders. Restaurants use their own ordering page and QR menus on every table, with orders confirmed via WhatsApp in about two seconds, including customer confirmation, kitchen tickets, and rider dispatch links. The platform operates on a flat monthly price with 0% commission, and payments are handled in cash or via card machine at the door, so no card details are stored in the system. Short films on the GetMenu website illustrate how the software solves common restaurant challenges such as QR menus, loyalty stamping, automated stock countdown, and building-specific delivery fees.
