Wix Restaurants: Understanding Prices on Your Menu
In this article
- Understand how prices are displayed
- Example of how prices appear on your site
- Hide prices and currencies for menu items
- Show or hide prices set to 0.00
Important:
Make sure you update the Menus app to the latest version in your editor.
Control the way prices look on your menu. The appearance of your prices depends on the regional format you choose, as well as the app you're using (e.g. Menus, Restaurant Orders).
Understand how prices are displayed
You can customize both on your menu to align with your restaurant business needs. Once you add a menu item and enter a price for it, the numerical value appears on the menu as you typed it. The way the price looks depends on the format you choose and the specific app you're using (Menus or the Restaurant Orders app). If you offer some items for free, you can
decide how they look. You can also hide the prices and currency from your menu.
The price format details aspects like the number of digits for the price's fractional part and the currency character used to separate it. For instance, the pattern for US dollars shows that the '$' symbol comes before the price number. You can customize how your price looks on the menu by changing
your site's regional settings.
If you mark an item as Market Price, Market Price appears in place of a numeric price. This appears on your live site menu, PDF menu, Wix mobile app, and in item grids in your dashboard. This is different from items priced at 0.00. Items priced at 0.00 follow the free-item display rules in this article, while Market Price items show Market Price instead.
Note:
This is the case in the new Menus app, and not in the new Restaurant Orders app. The Menus page shows the prices as typed in the dashboard, while Restaurant Orders pads prices with 2 decimal points.

Hide prices and currencies for menu items
You can hide prices or currency from your menu to create a clean and minimalist design. This option is great for running promotions, exclusive events, or emphasizing the aesthetic appeal of your menu without displaying pricing information.

Show or hide prices set to 0.00
If you have items that are free of charge on your menu, you decide how to display their price – show '0' as the price, or not show a price at all. You can set this rule to all sections and menus, or select specific sections.
Tip:
The setting you choose applies to all items, variants, and modifiers priced at 0.00—either showing "0" or hiding the price.
