Abstract
An approach is provided for customizing a restaurant menu. Dietary restrictions of a user are received. Text is extracted from a digital version of a menu of a restaurant. Ingredient(s) of a first menu item are identified within the extracted text. Using natural language processing (NLP), it is determined that the ingredient(s) include at least one ingredient that does not comply with the dietary restrictions. Ingredient(s) of a second menu item are identified within the extracted text. Using NLP, it is determined that the ingredient(s) of the second menu item comply with the dietary restrictions. Based on the at least one ingredient being in non-compliance and the ingredient(s) of the second menu item being in compliance, a digital menu is generated that includes the second menu item, but does not include the first menu item. The digital menu is displayed to the user.
