So enjoying! I realized a couple of times that I was playing for hours. Usely while traveling or waiting for something. One major downfall, is trying to upgrade service. I've been playing mini games and I've been stuck in this one upgrade for months (and I do mean months). I'm trying to be patient.

If you click multiple times on the ones with the fish thought bubble you get free items. But, if you merge two, you need to have energy to use. I've been playing a while and it just worked on one of my tries, yay. Quick issue. The stored money stack is not clickable for me. They don't merge, either. Ty

Great so far! The only ads there are, you voluntarily watch for rewards- which are pretty generous compared to other games. Nowadays, it's really hard to find games that don't assault you with ads every 30 seconds of gameplay! The game is super cute, with different puzzles and such to upgrade your restaurant. Love it!

Very cute game. Minimal ads, only time you see ads is if you want something, its voluntary, not all up in your face. I fell asleep with the game running and it didnt turn my screen off so thats a plus for leaving it afk for a while, youll have a lot of money when you return. Again, ads are voluntary, not every 30 seconds like most games. Edit to add after a while. Im still lovin the game. I enjoy the time it takes to upgrade. Ig other people are impatient *shrugs*

BRING BACK THE 30 SECOND AD COOL DOWN FOR GEMS I had a lot of fun playing this until Gold 2. This is a cute and fun idle game, but it was already a slog to get through advertisements for gems. You need so many gems in this game to progress and the new update made it unplayable. It already takes months of ad watching and gem accumulation to get to Gold 3, now I feel like that could take up to a year, no exaggeration. I get free to play = lots of ads, but this is just ridiculous!!!

Fun until you reach Gold ⭐⭐. It's virtually impossible to get past this level. Even with spending real money. Every employee is maxed out (except mystery dancer who I don't own yet) but I'm still short over 400 service rating points. So I need new uniforms which still won't get me far since the good ones are still only 25 points. Not that there are many options to buy them anyway. (Until this recent event which is way to expensive anyway. Especially since it'll barely help anyway.)

Interesting game with nice visuals. No forced ads or annoying pop ups. The glaring issue is going from silver 3 to gold one. The amount of training books you need to upgrade your staff to a 2400 rating is beyond ridiculous. Also there are a ton of events and features gated behind the gold tier upgrades. Unless you spend in the triple digits you are looking at months of slow, tedious grinding to make it past this point Items in the cash shop are overpriced for what the give you.

Easy to play and enjoyable for the first bit. The difficulty of increasing the food rating quickly takes this away the fun and either you are waiting for the next time you can merge items in the mini game or needing to purchase elements to make new dishes. The discrepancy between increasing food rating and decor rating is unnecessary.

I really like this game but I'm starting to lose interest a little. The layout (although not ideal) doesn't bother me as much as it seems to bother some, and I also have to restart my phone for it to show how much money I actually made while I was gone sometimes. But the real problem is after you get so far it becomes too hard to advance. The training books take forever to get and only give you like 6 points when you need thousands. After a while you get tired of waiting to advance.

Very good game had a great experience its just tough I lost interest because there was no east way to accumulate training books, I needed to pass service to get the next level it's impossible without spending 30 dollars and I don't think that would be enough. And from what I'm reading on reviews noone has reached the buffet level which should tell the designer something. Great concept and recipes
