The influence of menu design, menu item descriptions and menu variety on customer satisfaction. A case study of Egypt

This study proposed a model of the influence of menu attributes on customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction studies in restaurants have not emphasized menu attributes, despite menus being critically important restaurant products. To date no study has investigated the relationship between menu attributes and customer satisfaction. Multiple regression analysis of the data indicated that menu design, menu item descriptions, and menu variety were significant predictors of customer satisfaction. The study’s findings will be beneficial for educators, students in hotel management programs and practitioners to better understand the complex association between menu attributes and customer satisfaction.
