To get the last key:
end($array);
$last_key = key($array);
How i would approach the above code:
$this->menu_item[] = $row;
Or/And if $row had more fields you really wanted to name them
differently:
$item['item_id'] = $row['item_id'];
$item['name'] = $row['name'];
$item['price'] = $row['item_name'];
$this->menu_item[] = $item;
