See more:

My images ,css,and any other referred files are not displayed in my locally hosted site.but while running everything is proper.

I refer files like
"../../FoodImages/abcd.jpg"

If my project name is ProjectTest,in My visual studio heirarchical structure is ProjectTest/FoodImages/abcd.jpg.And it is properly working.If i had published my project to a folder MySite,the folder FoodImages comes like MySite/FoodImages/abcd.jpg.

Same is the case with my Site.css,

I have refered like

<link href="../../Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I have tried using '~',but it neither worked.for eg:
return File(Server.MapPath("~/Documents/menu.pdf"), contentType:"application/pdf");

Please help me out.Its properly working when not hosted.

It's a common problem in the MVC deployment. Please try to change the reference like the following.

HTML

<link href="@Url.Content("~/Content/Site.css")" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
