The recipes are often of food that I have never heard or eaten before. Hence, a small increase in knowledge. ### 3/5 — Ehhhhh, Nostaligic but shame you’ve added ads *2026-08-14, version 1.9.8* Used to play this on my mums iPhone 4! Didn’t play for many years now I’ve started playing every day, the popups and ads are seriously annoying though, also why can’t you level up past 99? You should fix that rather than doing the stupid goals ### 4/5 — Some improvements needed but love it *2026-08-13, version 1.9.8* Love this game, very easy to play. Couple of points which would make it perfect: 1. Fix ability to link to Facebook 2. Allow videos to save ruined food not just reducing time 3. More ways to earn gems or reduce price significantly 4. BIG ONE! Allow food to be sorted by time and or profit/xp 5. BIGGER ONE!! Allow people to view storage items in 1 place and not have to scroll through the shop 6. Show a sale price for items before you sell them Literally would make the game perfect! ### 2/5 — Countertop Clearing *2026-08-12, version 1.9.8* Don’t get me wrong I love this game but there is no reason I should log out for 2.5 seconds and come back to an entirely wiped out restaurant. The time and money put into this game is NOT worth my work/patience not lasting one simple game close out. ### 3/5 — Sets you up to spend Money to succeed *2026-08-11, version 1.9.8* I have been playing this game for several years. A few months ago fun goals where you interact with others changed. Goals are set up where required food takes too much time to cook and pays out at very low earnings. It’s hard to complete goals in time to get reward. I do like that the graphics have gotten better, but the game seems more like labor now than fun. Update: Same game but the game is easier to complete goals. I have been playing this game for way over ten years. The income you get on selling completed food has remained the same during all this time, but the cost to buy equipment needed to cook has gone from about $10,000 per oven, stove or grill to $39,000 per the current game. You run out of cash quickly! ### 2/5 — READ REVIEW *2026-08-09, version 1.9.8* The game is really good BUT when the food is ready I’ll take it off and it freezes so I’ll exit the game and when I come back the food is gone. The game stealing food that I’ve had cooking for over 12hrs is a bit disappointing and it’s happening or more now! PLEASE FIX THIS !!! ### 4/5 — top mais à revoir *2026-08-08* Le principe est bien mais je trouve qu'il y a bcp de bug et il manque une optimisation des actions manuelles. Déjà quand tu veux construire qlq chose tout les clients partent et doivent revenir un par un ce qui est problématique. Ensuite l'ergonomie est moyenne les graphismes bof j'aimerais beaucoup qu'il travaille sur jeu car il a beaucoup de potentiel, j'y jouai beaucoup plus jeune mais il n'a pas du tout évolué et a mal vieilli. Svp améliorez le jeu ### 3/5 — Não consigo logar com o fb *2026-08-02* Já tenho uma conta mas não consigo logar com o Facebook. Aparece uma mensagem dizendo que precisa atualizar o IOS, mas já está atualizado e não consigo 😓 ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2026-07-31, version 1.9.8* I’ve played for years ### 4/5 — Good but some glitch *2026-07-29, version 1.9.8* I like this app ever since I was young but hate the glitches and it makes me lose coins and gems.. but love it overall just wish there’s other ways to speed up dishes and maybe an update to make it a little more interactive like setting up our own prices. ### 5/5 — Dope *2026-07-28, version 1.9.8* Awesome game ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-07-28, version 1.9.8* The best game ever ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-07-23, version 1.9.8* Fun and addictive ### 5/5 — Please NEVER remove this app! *2026-07-22, version 1.9.8* I have had this app since the early 2010’s as well as bakery story and fashion story. I can’t believe it’s still up and running now in 2026! The community, tip system, and wall are still up and up to date. SO nostalgic, please never ever take it down! ### 5/5 — So fun! *2026-07-21, version 1.9.8* I have been playing restaurant story for a while now and I love it! ### 5/5 — Game *2026-07-20, version 1.9.8* Great game! ### 5/5 — Flowers cafe *2026-07-15, version 1.9.8* Great game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Cannot sign into my Apple account. *2026-07-24, version 1.9.8* I was trying to move Restaurant Story to my other phone signed into my old account. Well, turns out signing into your Apple account does absolutely nothing and I’m stuck as a newbie. Deleting this until you fix this issue. ### 1/5 — Too many glitches *2026-07-22, version 1.9.8* This game used to be fun. Now, the ads pop up while you’re trying to complete a task. When the ad is over, suddenly, your thousands of plates have disappeared. It is just too glitchy. ### 1/5 — This game sucks *2026-07-22, version 1.9.8* If you have a Apple device, do not download this game because you won’t be able to get access to your other account ### 1/5 — Fixed To Make You Pay *2026-07-09, version 1.9.8* It's fun. But after hours of watching ads to earn enough gems, it glitches. It double taps an item I don't have enough money to buy and the window pops up to trade gems for coins. I close the window and avoid pressing the Oky button, but it forced me to use all my gems anyways in trade of more coins. I'm frustrated. On top of that, the double coin reward from watching an ad only works with under 500 coins. Anything over that and the ads conveniently aren't working. ### 1/5 — Cheat *2026-06-29, version 1.9.8* Overcharged. It’s interesting how so much cost money. When you get enough neighbors to actually expand it doesn’t expand. When you complain about it, the next thing, you go into your account and it’s 5 to 10 more neighbors required to expand. And finally they remove the option entirely. I took photos and 2 videos to prove it. I just recently I did buy some gems for 13.99 and had to go to a separate website or it was going to be 16.99 so I went to the website to pay the 13.99 and got charged 16.99 anyway. The game itself is fun but the shady tactics aren’t so nice. I submitted a ticket, but so far just ignored. I will update if they make it right. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-06-29, version 1.9.8* The game is whatever, but forcing you to watch one ad everytime you serve your food is sick. It’s usually a gambling ad. Today I finally uninstalled because I got through serving my food ad free, then started cooking some new food and was then prompted with a polymarket ad. Genuinely good game (besides most of yalls bs being hidden behind gems) and would’ve payed $1.99 or so for ad free; But alas, it’s 2026 so your time must go to the gambling industry ### 1/5 — Long wait times and insufferable ads *2026-06-17, version 1.9.8* Getting ads when you don’t actually do anything is crazy. Coupled with long wait times and expiry of food, poor f2p experience that doesn’t inspire any paid experience ### 1/5 — Game glitches *2026-05-31, version 1.9.8* This is the 3rd time my game glitched and after waiting 6-12 hours all my food deleted im so upset. Fix your game!! ### 1/5 — PTW now *2026-05-22, version 1.9.8* Just like Bakery story, not only forced to watch ads, but the goals are impossible to do now without spending gems. The algorithm that governs the goal parts won’t give you enough to build appliances in time even with nbr’s gifts. Play to Win is not cool! Haven’t you guys made enough off this game by now after 10 years?? Imma uninstall if things don’t improve fast. I’ll be watching ### 1/5 — Not worth it ! *2026-05-10, version 1.9.7* I have to say it’s a ok app. I had it back in 2015. So much has changed, and ads it’s not worth it. Get a better app and save ur time ther is always ads and what not ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-22, version 1.9.8* Fun and easy to play ### 5/5 — Restaurant story *2026-08-22, version 2.2.0* I like this game! ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-08-20, version 1.9.8* Good game ### 5/5 — amazing game *2026-08-15, version 1.9.8* i’ve been playing on and off for years and it has always been a favorite of mine!! ### 5/5 — Peaceful *2026-08-10, version 1.9.8* I been playing this game for 10 plus years and love those games that you can decorate your place and personalize stuff. You cook and earn money and goals to get more decorate and the only thing timed is the cooking. I love the Halloween themed stuff that comes out every year. It’s a peaceful little game and I love playing it. ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-08-08, version 1.9.8* Been playing it since I was a kid ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-08-07, version 1.9.8* very relaxing game! I love ending my day with restaurant story :) the dishes are fun to cook and the design aspect of the game is very cool as well! If you are looking for a chill, low-stakes game to wind down with, I highly recommend restaurant story! ### 5/5 — Sometimes very challenging *2026-08-05, version 1.9.8* Great game. My only complaint is that it takes too long to complete challenges. Sometimes they are impossible to complete. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-05, version 1.9.8* Good ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-08-01, version 1.9.8* This game is so relaxing and fun. I wish they had a button to cook the same recipes on all the stoves with one click --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
