Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Utah

I want to show a restaurant menu (in a custom format - not the exact same way that the restaurant is showing it) on my website, but need to know if this requires some sort of formal agreement in order to do so without negative legal ramifications. I know that sites like allmenus.com and diningin.com show menu information and are likely not getting sued for doing so, but need to know what steps I need to take to cover my butt.
