Build your menu once — categories, sizes, add-ons, allergens and Arabic names — and the till, the QR menu and the kitchen screens all read the same thing. Change a price or take a dish off and every surface follows.
The menu list and an add-on group, as they ship.
Most restaurants keep the menu in several places: the till, a PDF for the QR code, a printed sheet in the kitchen. Each is right the day it is made and wrong a week later.
A price changes on the till but not on the QR menu. A dish runs out and guests keep ordering it from the table. The breakfast menu is still up at two in the afternoon because nobody remembered to swap it.
There is one menu. The till, the QR menu and the kitchen display all read it, so a change made once is a change made everywhere — and a time window takes breakfast off at eleven without anyone touching a screen.
You still decide what goes on the menu. You stop retyping it.
An afternoon of typing, or a CSV import, and you are live.
Sign-up seeds starter categories for your type of restaurant, plus the allergens and dietary tags most kitchens use. Keep them, rename them or delete them.
Name and description in English and Arabic, price, category, item type and a photo — or import your items from a CSV file.
Sizes with their own price differences, and add-on groups that are choose-one or choose-several, optional or required, with a minimum and maximum.
With Kitchen Display, give each item a station — grill, fry, bar — and its line goes to that station’s screen when the order is sent.
Show an item on the till, on the QR menu, or both. A till-only item never appears to guests, and the system refuses a QR order for it.
Always available, or specific days and times — breakfast, lunch, dinner, happy hour, weekends — per item or for a whole category.
Edit a price, mark a size sold out or hide a category, and the next order on every surface reflects it.
Every change to the menu is written to the audit log with the staff member’s name.
Grouped by the job, not by the screen it lives on.
The structure guests and staff navigate.
The way guests actually order.
Recorded once, kept with the dish.
With Kitchen Display, the right ticket reaches the right station.
What sells, when, and how it got there.
A menu is not the same at 8am and 8pm. Telling each item when it sells means nobody has to remember to swap anything.
Breakfast 06–11, lunch 11–15, dinner 18–23, all day, happy hour 16–19, weekends only — or your own days and times, one window per day.
Schedule a single dish, or the whole breakfast category in one go. Late-night windows that cross midnight work as you would expect.
Outside its window an item disappears from the QR menu, shows greyed out on the till, and an order for it is refused by the system — so a stale page can never sneak one through.
Staff meals and off-menu specials can live on the till without ever appearing to guests, and the reverse works too.
The menu is the spine of Tahlib. Every product that sells, cooks or counts a dish reads it from here.
Staff ring up items, sizes and add-ons straight from the menu, with the group rules enforced in the add-on picker.
Guests order from the same menu at the table, with photos, allergen tags and only what is available right now.
Each line arrives at the station its item is routed to.
Recipes hang off menu items, so selling a dish moves the ingredients behind it.
Push one master menu to every branch, keeping each branch’s own item prices.
Send an event to your own systems whenever a menu item is created or changed.
The menu is part of Tahlib Core. The products around it are switched on individually, each priced per branch. View all products
Same menu builder, different headache solved.
Written around how menus here are actually read.
Every item, description, size, add-on and category has an Arabic field. Turn Arabic translations off in settings and the Arabic inputs disappear from the dashboard.
Halal is one of the nine dietary tags, and allergens are shown to guests in English and Arabic on the QR menu.
An iftar menu from 6pm, a suhoor menu after midnight — each a time window on a category, set once for the month.
Tandoor, grill, fry and bar stations are seeded, because that is how most kitchens here split the work. Routing items to them comes with Kitchen Display.
Yes. It is part of Tahlib Core, which is free for every branch. So are tables, QR codes, a view-only QR menu and analytics. Taking orders needs QR Ordering or POS, each priced per branch.
Yes, from a CSV file up to 5 MB. Rows are matched by SKU — an existing SKU updates the item, a new one creates it — and any row with a problem is reported without stopping the rest. The categories need to exist first, and sizes, add-ons and photos are added in the dashboard rather than in the file.
Yes. The QR menu, the till and the kitchen read the same menu, so a new price, a hidden item or a sold-out size applies to the next order.
Switch it off for the QR menu or the till from the item, or mark a single size or add-on choice sold out. A one-tap “86” button on the till is not there today.
Yes. Give the breakfast items or category a morning window and the dinner ones an evening window, and each appears only when it should — on the QR menu, on the till, and in what the system will accept as an order.
Not today. Time windows switch items and categories on and off; keeping whole alternative menus and switching between them is a separate product that is not on sale yet.
Yes. Allergen tags are shown on the QR menu in English and Arabic. Dietary tags and the “may contain traces” note are recorded with the item but not shown to guests yet.
Each item has its own add-on groups today. A shared library of add-ons used by many items is not available yet.
Yes. Every customer-facing field has an Arabic version, and the dashboard itself runs in English and Arabic with right-to-left layout.
Not today. You can import and update items in bulk from a CSV, but exporting the menu or raising every price by a percentage is not in the product yet.
Set it up this afternoon, and the till, the QR menu and the kitchen all start from the same page.
