In order to better meet the accuracy and timeliness requirements of Chinese food dish recognition， a new type of dish recognition network was designed. The original YOLOv5 model was pruned by combining Supermask method and structured channel pruning method， and lightweighted finally by Int8 quantization technology. This ensured that the proposed model could balance accuracy and speed in dish recognition， achieving a good trade-off while improving the model portability. Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves a mean Average Precision （mAP） of 99.00% and an average recognition speed of 59.54 ms /frame at an Intersection over Union （IoU） of 0.5， which is 20 ms/frame faster than that of the original YOLOv5 model while maintaining the same level of accuracy. In addition， the new dish recognition network was ported to the Renesas RZ/G2L board by Qt. Based on this， an intelligent service system was constructed to realize the whole process of ordering， generating orders， and automatic meal distribution. A theoretical and practical foundation was provided for the future construction and application of truly intelligent service systems in restaurants.
