i would put all the prices in line to the right and as noted before the same type of symbols between the item and price other than the menu's up top it looks great!

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
The illustrations, besides being awful, are just floating there and are not tied to anything. They copy is small and too light and hard to read.

I would start fresh. Have a look at some of these examples to get inspiration. Notice that with most of them, the graphics are tightly integrated. The problem with your layout is that everything is all over the place. Try breaking thing down into copy blocks, the fewer the better.

Here's something I just threw together real fast to give you an idea. Everything is pulled together and relates. Try using only one graphic, preferably not clip art. Use some stock photo art and find something appropriate. Reversing the top panel makes for a nice header and the added contrast helps a lot.

print it on clear sheet , use over head projecter see what it looks like on wall , at 40 by 70 should be a nice menu . i am sure customers know what they are coming in for . So no reason to Mcdonaldlize every menu

The red line that the two ribbons sit on is straight.

The line underneath the name is squiggly. Get rid of the squiggly line - it conflicts.

Also possibly go to a standard but light font for the word "Menu".
