For Mexican restaurants

Video menus for Mexican restaurants & taquerias

Half the menu at a good taqueria needs explaining to half the people who walk in — and the other half already know exactly what they want. A video menu serves both without a server having to translate a single dish, because the food explains itself.

The HeyPlates advantages

Built for menus that shouldn't need translating

Fast, visual, and mobile-first — made by people who've stood in your kitchen, not just behind a screen.

Video-first menus

Guests watch every dish before they order — confident orders, fewer questions, more of what you want to sell.

QR, table & tablet ready

One menu everywhere: table QR codes, counter tablets, and a shareable link. Everything stays in sync.

Content that converts

Put your menu in your Instagram and TikTok bio — turn followers into diners at your door.

Instant updates

Change a price or hide a sold-out dish; it's live everywhere at once.

Set up once

No reprints, no re-setup. Manage the same menu forever.

Allergens & dietary tags

Nuts, vegan, gluten-free — clear for every guest.

No app needed

Opens instantly in any phone's camera and browser.

We film it for you

Our crew shoots your dishes on-site, in one visit.

Fully managed

Want us to keep it updated for you? We do that too.

The trompo, the dip, the sizzle — that's the pitch

Al pastor coming off the spit, a birria taco going into consomé, a molcajete arriving still bubbling. These are dishes with theater built in, and a still photo throws it away. Video is the only format that shows guests why the line outside is worth joining.

Guests order the safe thing when they don't recognize a word

A diner who doesn't know what lengua, buche, or huitlacoche is will order carne asada every time — not because they prefer it, but because it's the only word they're sure about. Show the dish and the guessing stops. That's how the rest of your menu finally starts selling.

Two languages, one menu, no compromise

Write dish names the way your kitchen says them and add the English underneath, or run the whole menu in both. Nobody has to be handed a different piece of paper, and no dish gets renamed into something blander to be understood. The video carries the meaning either way.

FAQ

Common questions

Can the menu be bilingual?

Yes — every dish name, description, and section heading is yours to write, in either language or both.

Can we mark spice levels and salsas?

Yes, every item supports tags — heat level, vegetarian, gluten-free, whatever your guests ask about most.

We're family-run and not very technical. Is this hard?

We build the whole thing for you from the menu you have now. Afterwards, changing a price is about as hard as sending a text message.
