Migrate WP Menu between sites

Question

What Wordpress tables contain the nav menus?

I am getting conflicting information like wp-options, wp_terms, wp_term_taxonomy, wp_term_relationships. the information is all 4 years old though.

I just want to export my menu from one site then import it into another. I want the whole structure.

I tried the WP export function but there isn't a way to just select the menu system, and I wasn't sure I could import just the nav menu section.

thanks in advance, D

I used this plugin a while back and it worked well, although the menu system wasn't overtly complex, just had lots of items. https://wordpress.org/plugins/menu-exporter/ - It's old, but could still do the trick. This will let you export your menu and import via the standard importer tool.
