about this project

Pitaziki menu design: menu design, layout, typography, visual direction.

Making a large menu easy to navigate. With multiple categories, customizable options, combos, sides, desserts, and drinks, the challenge was to create a layout that feels organized without becoming overwhelming.

Design goals: create a clear information hierarchy, make categories easy to find, organize customizable options logically, balance content with visual elements, keep pricing highly visible, and maintain a clean and approachable restaurant aesthetic.

A menu designed for quick decisions. The menu runs as four panels: Build Your Own (bowl, wrap or pita); Top It and Fill It; Specials and Sauce It; Dessert, Drinks and side specials, shown as in-store menu boards and as a printed fold-out. Designed to make every choice feel simple.
