### 3/5 — 많이 아쉬운 시리즈

*2025-04-20*

초반 템포가 써니 캠프 스토리보다 더 느린게 문제. 보통 느려도 2년차 후부터는 성장의 맛이 느껴져야 하는게 4~5년차가 되도록 유저가 조용히 지켜만 봐야함. 초반에 돈도 쥐꼬리 만큼 벌리고 레시피 얻는 속도도 느려서 음식 찾는 재미가 심하게 반감됨. 음식을 만들어서 경연을 하거나 하는 개념이 없는 것도 아쉬움. 게임 컨셉 자체는 매력적이나 유저를 후반부까지 끌고 갈 힘은 없는 게임.

### 4/5 — Solid Restaurant Management

*2024-08-11, version 2.19*

This is a solid restaurant management sim. The gameplay is good patrons come and sit down, order and will served by your staff. Your waiters and waitresses will take the orders and your Chefs will cook it up. It’s enjoyable to watch and see your business progress
Where there needs to be improvements:
The economy is very unbalanced. Ingredients are costly, hunting for ingredient's is limited in what you find. 
There needs to be better tracking of how your restaurant is doing: All dishes served, customer satisfaction etc
Progression is very slow after several years, it is not easy to unlock and discover recipes/furniture etc, and patrons feel limited and do not fill up your restaurant 
That said, the game is very fun and very replayable

### 4/5 — Fun but slow to play

*2024-02-20, version 2.19*

Felt the story moved by too slow! I want everything to happen faster. The recipe making feature is super fun!

### 4/5 — Produce new sport game

*2021-10-21, version 2.06*

I want Kairosoft produce a new game is volleyball game because you produce football, basketball and tennis. I love you

### 3/5 — Same routine

*2020-07-04, version 2.06*

The game is nice but very simple and it gets boring. Bought the full version and its not really worthit.

### 2/5 — ภาษา

*2019-12-30, version 2.06*

ติดตั้งภาษาไทยอย่างไร ติดตั้งไม่ได้

### 3/5 — Bug?

*2019-07-31, version 2.06*

When developing dishes, I’d get a dish with high grades, then the grades would drop down to F when I go and out the dish in the restaurant? What’s that about?

### 2/5 — 有進步空間

*2018-09-30, version 2.06*

我二十年前玩的經營餐廳遊戲自由度都比這個高。
餐廳從廚房、桌椅、櫃檯的位置，
到地板牆壁的裝潢，
菜色員工的選擇，
都多很多。
尤其桌椅擺放的方式直接影響上菜結帳的速度。
這個不能自己來設計就少了很多樂趣。

### 5/5 — Help! I love this game, but....

*2018-09-28, version 2.06*

I love this game. When I want an immersive challenge, I pull it out and play through, but I am having a problem. After I reinstalled it, some of my ingredients have too many stars which makes it impossible to make the low end recipes like veggie stir fry. My cabbage has three stars. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but that didn’t seem to help.

### 2/5 — Buy tables

*2018-09-19, version 2.01*

I buy a table but is not coming to our store. Please fixed it.

### 5/5 — Pflicht

Für mich neben Game Dev Story das beste Spiel von den Entwicklern. Viele Stunden Spaß garantiert

### 5/5 — 很好玩

*2018-08-11, version 2.01*

希望會有二代餐廳！

### 5/5 — I need Thai language

*2018-05-29, version 2.01*

### 5/5 — Love it and I want more

*2018-03-22, version 2.01*

Thank you for your hard work on making these games

2.เลือกภาษไทย ( ตรงนี้ไม่ต้องกด add หรือ install )
3. กด close ปิดหน้าต่างคำสั่ง ตัวเกมจะทำการ reset ใหม่
4. ขอให้สนุกกับการเล่น :)

### 5/5 — Kairosoft at their best

*2019-11-03, version 2.06*

This is definitely one of Kairosoft’s best games. If they started churning out games like this again, I would be a lot more likely to purchase it than their freemium stuff.
