Bring the essentials
- Truck name
- Items and prices
- Combo details
Choose a visual direction and adapt the description before generating. Turn on optional design refinement if you want help with composition, colors or layout. Keep your facts and exact wording in the brief.
Design for the queue
Customers often read from farther away than they would at a table. Give the main items and prices the strongest contrast. Use one food illustration as a signpost, and keep detailed ingredient notes from competing with the choices.
Make the combo unambiguous
Write what the combo includes and its exact price. Keep add-ons separate so the illustration does not imply an extra side is included. Check the finished menu at the distance and size where you plan to use it.

Original AI-generated example.
See the exact prompt
Create one finished 4:5 vertical food truck menu, flat artwork, for fictional taco truck MESA VERDE. Strong graphic street-food identity: dark forest green, butter yellow and small tomato-red accents. Bold condensed headline, original hand-cut illustration of two tacos and a lime along one edge, generous unbroken text area. Practical outdoor-menu legibility and three simple price groups; all prices visibly connected to the right food. Exact visible text: 'MESA VERDE', 'TACOS ON THE MOVE', 'TACOS', 'Chipotle Chicken $4', 'Roasted Mushroom $4', 'Citrus Fish $5', 'MAKE IT A MEAL', 'Any 3 Tacos + Agua Fresca $14', 'SIDES & SIPS', 'Street Corn $5', 'Agua Fresca $4'. Prioritize the $14 combo without obscuring individual prices. No invented ingredients, dietary claims, address, time, certifications, extra sales copy, watermark or mockup. Carefully spell MUSHROOM and AGUA FRESCA. Whole final menu visible with safe margins.
