The E-Menu
Originating in Israel, the E-menu is an interactive LCD touch screen located at one end of the table to be used by one or two operators sitting close by, a downside to this being that multiple people may want to look at different things at the same time.
The entire menu is visible with full descriptions and calorie count, it has a call button for a waiter and can view the current bill. It also has interactive group games and music to keep the customers occupied. There is a video available of it being used in the above link. I'm not sure how well food/drink spillage would be handled by these screens

Zupa!
Not exactly interactive, and it is more a cafe than a restaurant but their menu, specialising in soups(Zupa is italian for soup) contains a video of their special being prepared. The special changes often and they rely on recipes from around the world, the video being of the original recipe preparer. The video incluedes sound so that people can here the instructions and know exactly what is in their soup. What makes it interactive is the fact that the recipes and videos are actually made by the people from around the world, they encourage family recipes and alike to be filmed by people and the best stays as their "Special" for a week or longer "And it's fun for the customers, when they're in line, they can look at it and decide whether or not that want to try it."

The Interactive Wine Menu
The basics of the menu come up at first, but selecting "Red" lets into a whole new level, to names, years, producer and a whole lot more. All by simply using your hand to select what you are interested in, order a bottle or a single glass. The menu is projected onto the bar and uses object recognition software to follow your hands selections to delve deeper into the menu and ake your order.

Everyone has it, Inamo
The whole tables are interactive, displayed from overhead projectors and use touch screens to do everything I've previously talked about with every other menu on here. Nothing extra except for the fact the entire restaurant is themed this way and makes the experience more wholesome and less tacky
