Restaurant Social Menu Architecture & Content Engineering
If your menu is the product, your social should act like a menu discovery machine.
Most restaurant feeds are random.
The best ones are engineered.
1) Give the menu a role
Your social isn’t “brand personality.”
It’s appetite + decision + action.
2) Build POV formats
Formats create velocity:
- the bite
- the pull
- the drip
- the crunch
- the build
- the reveal
3) Texture wins
Texture is conversion.
Sound, close-ups, steam, break, stretch.
4) Package LTOs like entertainment
If it’s limited, it should feel like an event.
5) Create rituals
A weekly “thing” beats random posting.
6) Measure ordering behavior
Track what formats drive:
- saves
- shares
- “where is this?”
- clicks
- sellouts
Category Takeaway
Great restaurant social doesn’t “look good.”
It makes people order.
