Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! is a challenging restaurant simulator where you must spin plates and complete orders before customers become impatient. With a large variety of food options and multiple game modes, the game offers an immersive experience that requires dexterity and strategy. The charming ambiance and detailed presentation add to the satisfaction of creating a successful restaurant, but the game has a steep learning curve that can be frustrating.


What we like:
  • Large variety of food options
  • Multiple game modes, including local co-op
  • Immersive restaurant simulation
  • Detailed presentation
  • Responsive creator who listens to player feedback
What could be improved:
  • Steep learning curve
