    Example menu estimate

A match describes the example evidence for the selected needs. It does not guarantee a meal or its preparation. Confirm with staff before ordering. Unknown information stays unknown; adding a person can narrow the options.

A starting point.
A better question to ask.

Picky brings menu information and community experiences together. The source matters—and some dishes won’t have enough information.

Understanding dietary information
Menu estimates
AI reads available menu descriptions. Ingredients can be missing, and a description cannot establish preparation or cross-contact conditions. AI alone does not clear an allergen or coeliac requirement.
Community reports
A diner’s experience adds information about a dish. It describes that visit; recipes and kitchen practices can change. It is not a guarantee about your meal.
Questions for the venue
Confirm your needs, current ingredients and preparation with staff. A suggested tweak is a question to ask, not a confirmed kitchen option.

Your needs belong at the table.

Coeliac, food allergies, plant-based choices and religious dietary needs. Set the needs that matter to you; available dish information varies.

Before you get started

What if there’s no menu information?

Coverage is growing across Melbourne. Missing information means there isn’t enough to assess a dish. Check the venue’s menu, speak to staff, or scan a menu in the app for an estimate.
