After receiving customer complaints on how their previous menu had “too many choices and too much text,” IHOP completely redesigned the menu’s look. The revamped spread resulted in a 3.6 percent increase in store sales, according to Bloomberg, and throws out the daunting wall of text for a more visual look.

The video below breaks down exactly how the restaurant chain’s redesign appeals to the visual cues of diners, from the addition of color-coded categories to an increase in vibrant photos. The visual-friendly layout makes it easier for patrons to navigate through their options, thus creating more opportunities for them to order more food.
