# Macros.Menu

> Macros.Menu shows estimated calories, protein, carbs and fat for every item on restaurant menus across the US. Its companion app, MacrosMap (iPhone and Android), puts the same data on a map of nearby restaurants and can break down any menu from a photo or link.

Nutrition figures are estimates ("a lighthouse, not a source of truth"); users can refine any item. Restaurant pages live at https://macros.menu/{restaurant-slug}.
