When to Use a Required Menu
The ‘Required Menu’ feature allows you to add a mandatory Menu that appears to the Customer before they checkout. They must select an Item from the Required Menu before continuing to place an Order.
In most cases, we don't advice making Menus required, but it's useful if to add utensils as a cost or add a charge for wait staff or catering equipment. Instead of making a Menu Required, you might look at adding Service Charges, and Custom Order Fields.

Go to the Menu Module to find an existing Menu or Create a New Menu.
Only a Fixed Price Menu can be made Required.
