User Reviews

Players enjoy Restaurant Story for its relaxing, creative restaurant design and nostalgic social experience. However, multiple reviews repeatedly cite ads interrupting play, gem-based progression that makes goals hard to reach without spending, high upgrade costs, frequent glitches (like disappearing food and freezes), and connectivity issues requiring reinstalls. Overall, the game is appealing but its monetization and reliability problems significantly impact long-term enjoyment.

Pros

Relaxing and creative gameplay that lets you design and decorate your restaurant.
Long-term, nostalgic appeal with strong social connections and friendships formed with other players.
Visually appealing with improved graphics and a wide variety of decorations and themes.
Enjoyment of learning about different cuisines and cultural holidays through the game.

Cons

Excessive ads and pop-ups that disrupt gameplay and slow progress.
Progression is heavily gated by gems and requires neighbors or purchases, making goals hard to complete without spending.
High costs for equipment, expansions, and in-game items slow progress and can feel pay-to-win.
Frequent technical glitches such as food disappearing, processing freezes, and general instability.
Connectivity/login issues and crashes that sometimes require reinstalling the app.

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!
