What's wrong with QR codes for restaurant menus? Here are the pros I can come up with off the top of my head:

- Restaurants can experiment with more food options and more frequent updates to their menu

- Real time info on what's in stock

- Cuts out the cost of having to constantly reprint the menu

- Easier for customers to find the menu online when searching for restaurants (huge issue pre-COVID)

What are the actual downsides? Sure, there may be a tiny fraction of people without a smartphone, but they're likely accompanied by someone who does have one. Despite that, restaurants would likely keep a few physical menus on-hand.
