In a press conference, the cast and crew of TheMenu discuss the film's complicated themes of wealth, capitalism, and class anxiety.

Like the restaurant it portrays, The Menu serves up multiple themes and tones as dishes of sorts throughout the film. At times, The Menu is a black comedy commenting on class anxiety and capitalistic greed. At other points, the film incorporates horror and dramatic tones to keep the audience guessing, especially toward the end of the film. Director Mark Mylod cited the different tones and issues of The Menu as reasons for jumping on board.

The Menu follows a couple who journey to a Pacific Northwest island to dine at an exclusive restaurant featuring celebrity chef Julian Slowik . Full of rich, spoiled, and unlikable guests, the restaurant becomes a house of horrors as the tension increases with each new dish. At the center of the film is Fiennes, someone who Taylor-Joy sings the praises of throughout the press conference.
