How the menus stay current

Every menu on the site is checked weekly during the season against the menu the restaurant itself publishes. Dishes, descriptions, prices and wine lists are recorded as printed, and each page shows the date it was last refreshed.

Prices are never estimated. A dish without a printed price is shown without one, and a restaurant without a published menu is listed with its address, hours and cuisine only. Menus change seasonally, so confirm anything important with the restaurant.
