  Except of course for blind people who now finally have convenient access to menus. Availability of large print or braille menus is an extreme rarity. Also people with food allergies can enter their own order and be very clear about NO DAIRY, NO NUTS, etc. without some dipshit uninterested waiter ignoring or not caring about their concerns. Lastly, it is a lot more convenient to translate a web page than a paper menu if you need that. At many restaurants, but not all, I prefer QR code menus.
