Getting menu items like get_pages

Yes, there is. Use wp_get_nav_menu_items() instead.

<?php $items = wp_get_nav_menu_items( $menu, $args ); ?> 


<?php $args = array(
    'order'                  => 'ASC',
    'orderby'                => 'menu_order',
    'post_type'              => 'nav_menu_item',
    'post_status'            => 'publish',
    'output'                 => ARRAY_A,
    'output_key'             => 'menu_order',
    'nopaging'               => true,
    'update_post_term_cache' => false ); ?>
