Ratings and reviews

Sorry, but I have to give this one a fair critique. You can win the entire game with a single dish. Literally. Make one high quality dish, then *only serve that.* Don't have a robust, varied menu! That'll literally only harm your score. The in-game customers don't want variety, they don't have varied tastes. So you don't need to actually run it like a restaurant. Which breaks the whole aesthetic of the game. An otherwise fun game.

I think this is my favorite Kairosoft game, or at least it's right up there with my favorites (Sushi Spinnery, Mega Mall, Game Dev, Hot Springs, Dungeon Village). Love the dish development mechanic, which means you're never just waiting around to make money, you can always be working on something. There are IMO a couple of missteps with moving/ building/remodeling and ingredient hunting, but not enough to seriously hurt the game. And it's really generous about what you get to carry into NG+!

Really like this game. One bug thing tho that needs to be fixed is after you play a few games and get far when you start a new game tho the staff you hire at the start will be max lvl in several jobs. Like pro staff manager trainee or w.e. The problem with this is the amount they cost at the end of the year will be insane.
