> Manage restaurant menu categories, dishes, photos, sizes, extras, dietary details and spreadsheet imports with Nimki.

## All the little details. One lovely menu.

Your menu is more than a list of prices. Give every dish its place, keep its choices clear, and review changes before the team starts selling.

### Make choices clear.

Add sizes and extras so your team can capture the order as the guest wants it.

### Keep dishes organised.

Manage categories, descriptions, photos and preparation details in one place.

### Bring what you already have.

Import an Excel or CSV menu and review each dish before adding it.

## Give every dish a proper home.

Create and rename categories, manage items, and add descriptions and photos. Keep the menu useful for the people ordering from it and the team preparing it.

- Categories and dish editors
- Prices, photos and descriptions
- Preparation station details

## A regular. An extra shot. Exactly as asked.

Sizes and extras turn common requests into structured choices. Staff can review quantities and change choices on unsent draft lines before the order is sent.

## A spreadsheet is a starting point.

Upload CSV, XLSX or XLS, select a worksheet and match the columns. Correct the review, check the preview and confirm the dishes you want to add. Imported dishes remain unavailable until you publish them.

- Editable dish review
- Sizes and unlinked extras
- A final preview before confirmation

## Share useful food information.

Dietary labels and allergen details help staff and guests explore the menu. They support the conversation with your team; they do not replace checking ingredients and preparation for a guest with an allergy.

## Questions & answers

### Which files can I import?

CSV, XLSX and XLS spreadsheets up to 5 MB, with up to 500 dishes. The import uses one selected worksheet. PDF and photo imports are not currently available.

### Will an import replace my existing menu?

The supported import adds reviewed dishes as unavailable. Existing dishes and orders stay in place. Publish the new dishes from Menu when you are ready.
