Biggest opportunity: “drink”, “food” and “menu” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 71.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,191 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    I get why they stopped with this plugin.. Simple things such as changing a font are not an option, removig menu items in 1 menu makes them dissappear in any other menu with the same items as well.. Images are blurry no matter how high the resolution is.. I can go on..

    A good plugin that do its job. Free version installed and used with WP 5.5.1 and Enfold-child theme (Enfold 4.7.6.1) under php 7.3 (hosting with SSL and Wordfence plugin installed) No issues or bugs found for now. Don’t know if Pro version works as well as Free. 😉

    This plugin keeps deleting content from itself as well as all my media library thumbnails and events from an event calendar. I tried to get support but had zero response, and here I am a week later dealing with my content deleting because I add a new menu item.

    I want to say that this module is perfect for displaying restaurant menus in an elegant, nice and easy way. Super easy to add menus and dishes, and also very easy to style look the way you want with a little basic CSS knowledge. 🙂 I really love this plugin, and are already using it on three of my customers websites! <3 Loveley!

    Hello. I would like to express my thanks for this great and easy-to-use plugin. I installed the free version on 16 Oct and everything worked well. When I tried to add menu today, I realized that the ‘Menu Items’ section is missing from the page and I am unable to add any more items. I am using WordPress Version 4.9.8. Any help will be appreciated.

    Overall, I have found this plugin easy to use and the layout, aside from the klunky typography is easy to read. There are a few areas that need some work: 1. This plugin does not allow you to have the same menu items on 2 different menus with different prices. For example, many restaurants list their dinner items on their lunch menu with reduced prices. I got a very unpleasant surprise when I set up my client’s lunch menu and changed the prices, only to discover that the reduced prices were now also on the dinner menu. I could have changed the names of the lunch dishes, but that’s not how my client sets up their paper menus and they want consistency from what the customer sees in the restaurant and on the web. 2. Another unpleasant surprise I got was finding that when I deleted any menu items from one menu, they were also removed from all menus in which that menu item appeared. This created additional work where I had to repair the other menus where menu items were deleted. 3. All menu items are added to a list in the “Rest. Menus” section of the dashboard sidebar when they are created, but there is no way to add them to other menus from that list. Your only option is to re-input all the same information. 4. As mentioned above, the typography for the menu layout is a bit klunky, but the custom CSS allowed me to fix the appearance.

    Really happy about making my restaurant menu with this plugin. Does exactly what it says and it has a really easy learning curve. I’ve managed to have my menu running in no time, and I am not really good doing website development. The only thing I couldn’t resolve, the developer did. I wrote him an email and very quickly I had my answer. What else can you ask? They offer a free version and a paid pro one. So far, the best menu plugin for me. Thanks!
