Where is the restart option?

Question

I just did a fresh install of 11.10 and noticed that the restart option is missing. Is there a way I can put it or turn this option on?

In older versions of Ubuntu, you click the shut down button then click restart:

In older versions of Ubuntu that run Unity, you can also type "restart" in the dash.

You can easily restart the computer by pressing Alt+F2, and typing gksu reboot into the box that comes up.

In Ubuntu 21.04, click the power icon in the top right corner of the screen, then click "Power Off/Log Out". In the sub-menu that appears, click "Restart".
