Getting URL value from menu item by ID

Guessing the only way you get it without loop through the menu, is getting the post meta directly.

Navigation menus are saved as custom post type into wp_posts, so you can get it with get_posts or get_post_meta.

If it’s a custom link menu item, the code below should do it. Where $menu_id is you menu item id.

get_post_meta($menu_id, '_menu_item_url', true);

I don’t know if it’s the best approach, but I think it’s a start.
