Google can show a restaurant’s menu right at the top of the search results for a search on that restaurant’s brand name. It comes up in this “menu highlights” carousel and showcases some of the items on that restaurant’s menu.

The related places is not fun to see for when someone searches on your brand but hey, that is Google for you.
