Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Eureka! Restaurants at weekly against 5Cs Menu's monthly. Eureka! Restaurants also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and ratings volume (860 vs 208). 5Cs Menu's advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 71%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Eureka! Restaurants holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 208 and 860 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of 5Cs Menu's written reviews are positive against 71% of Eureka!
