What every menu photo must show
- One menu item only, exactly as the customer receives it.
- The dish centred in the frame.
- A sharp, well lit photo of your real food.
What gets a photo rejected
- More than one item in the photo, unless it's sold together as one item.
- Text, prices, discounts or banners on the image.
- Logos or watermarks added on top.
- People or faces (hands holding the food are fine).
- Blurry, dark or very small photos.
- Stock photos or photos that aren't your dish.
Tips that save time
- Shoot wide, crop to 5:4. Take the photo with space around the dish, then crop. It's easier than shooting exactly to size.
- Keep it centred. Uber shows small square thumbnails in the app, so anything near the edges can be cut off.
- Start with your best sellers. They're seen the most.
- Be patient with reviews. New photos are checked before they appear, so upload a few days before a menu change.

These requirements come from Uber's merchant help pages: menu photo guidelines and adding cover images and menu photos (Australia). Uber can change them, so check those pages if a photo is rejected.
