Restrofi vs MenuTiger — The honest comparison
MenuTiger is a QR menu platform popular in Southeast Asia. It lets customers view your menu digitally but lacks a KDS, GST invoicing, and AI analytics. Restrofi adds the full restaurant layer — orders routed to the kitchen, GST bills generated automatically, and AI tracking your revenue.
