This game was my favorite. The single tap to serve items made it much more fast paced than other cooking games. My favorite part was the bonus rounds. They were challenging but I could regularly beat them all. But with the most recent update, you automatically lose the bonus round if you single tap something that wasnt ordered. I couldnt get past 50 or 60 orders when I could usually beat them all (300 orders). Probably wont be playing much anymore.

This app is so much more fun than I expected! There is just 1 thing thats REALLY irritating. When your trying to multitask on the app while cooking multiple dishes for many customers, somtimes your finger "double taps" a dish and the app thinks you are trying to "trash it". Most levels don't allow you to throw items away and once you do you lose that life. I WISH they'd change it to were we have to drag the item to "trash it" because most of the time I'm not trashing it, I'm just moving so fast!

I thought this game was great and super fun. however once you get to a certain point, it is impossible to move forward without spending money. there are levels that even if you upgrade every single dish you can not win without a power up. i refuse to spend money on a free app. also the bonus challenges are impossible to win without powerups as well. and once you lose a level you go back to the beginning. over all i think the game is fun but it shouldn't be this difficult to play without money.

This game is fun and keeps me busy. There are a couple criticisms that I have though. The game freezes sometimes and I have to exit the game to unfreeze the screen then log in again to continue playing. Also, some of the food on some levels I have to tap fairly hard and in just the right spot to make/serve. This takes extra time and is aggravating. Please fix these things!

Until Mexico City, the game is great. Good level of challenge. From Mexico onwards, for some reason all the upgrades become so expensive that you get stuck and can't advance any more. You can't earn coins without completing levels and you can't complete levels without spending coins. I will probably stop playing, which is disappointing because this used to be one of my favorite games. Very disappointed.

Oh, how I want to give this game a good review! It starts out so well, which is why I'm giving it as high as two stars. However, eventually you are going to hit a wall. A wall where you cannot progress without using boosts. Boosts that cost money each time. I don't mind games that offer a "pay to win" speed-up. I even don't mind games that are shareware, where you have an intro part and then you pay to unlock the rest of the game. But paying each and every time you need a boost, and oh yeah, many later levels absolutely require boosts? No thank you. That sort of game model can DIAF.

this game is fun. I'm addicted. but. theres a lot of annoying things..forcing you to use a boost and/or spoons and not really giving you an option to save em up unless you constantly come back after waiting FOREVER for your lives to refill, the constant conveniently running out of time when you need just that one little thing, double tapping to throw something away when theres a useless trashcan on the screen.. I've ACCIDENTALLY double tapped so many times.

It's fun and challenging, but also incredibly frustrating. The controls are difficult, in the sense that half the time the game doesn't register what I tapped and does something completely different. There are also levels that no matter how efficient I am I always need more customers or more time to beat the level, which is annoying since that's just a way to force you to use/buy add ons to progress. Was having fun for a bit, but the ridiculous controls seriously have me consider uninstalling.

This has pretty much been my favorite mobile game. The look/design of the game is really fun. The challenges are a great mix. My only issue, as well as many others, are the bonus rounds. They were fun when I first started playing, but after an update they became impossible (greed dot/wrong dish served) that I rarely ever play bonus rounds anymore. I've read MANY reviews stating the same thing, but the creators aren't addressing is, only technical difficulties. Hope they fix it!

😠Uses a lot of data (542mb in one month's time) 😠Forces updates, including holiday characters. 😠 Gets increasingly difficult. In Casablanca, way too many levels are designed to fail, requiring a boost to pass it. This was my favorite game, but the latest update took a lot of the fun out of it. When I run out of spoons, I will uninstall the game.

I really like this game because it is fast paced, strategic, and fun, however, it can be very frustrating when they want you to win by serving a certain amount of customers, but the game only sends a certain amount (which is less than required to win), so therefore, you can only win by spending money and purchasing more customers to come. A lot of the side games for prizes/boosts are nearly impossible to win as well. Kind of sheisty in my opinion.

There is a long pause between levels and the app takes forever to open. I love the concept of the app so far but the long loading waits are rather annoying and greatly drains the fun from the app. I just downloaded and am only on level 3 and have spent more time waiting than playing. I'm hoping the upgrades are fair in this app and payout balances. Also, the app is not giving me my rewards for completing achievements.This app will more than likely get uninstalled if these issues are not resolved in an update soon. Update: I'm updating my review to 4 stars. I love this app. I'm still having issues with long periods of loading but the gameplay and customer service is awesome. I will gladly give a 5 when it speeds up between levels and initial loading.

I did love this game!! App freezes up on home screen and doesn't load. I unistalled it and reinstalled more than 25 times to fix the, for lack of a better word, glitch.. I over love this game but for the last 2-3 months nothing but glitches. While i'm in the game it freezes up then force closes out of no where and that's just the tip of the iceberg. To much to complain about. I'll just cut my losses. Thanks for the 2 out of 3 yrs of fun. I guess i'll find another game to love on. Thanks again,✌️

Amazing game,and I have been playing it for about a year or so. HOWEVER for the past few months,whenever I try to load the game it says something about a system/download error. very dissapointed,I have spent quite a bit of money on this game. Also I dislike how you can't carry your money from one level/city to the next.Overall great game,but you're going to need to spend some actual money to get past the harder levels.

I'm leaving this while uninstalling. I've liked this game for quite some time, and while you do eventually hit a plateau where it gets more difficult to progress without micro-transactions, it's been an overall fun and challenging game. The mini-arcs and daily goals help keep things interesting, too. But with the introduction of ads every other level, this game has lost a pretty significant selling point. I'd rather pay for a few bonuses here and there than be spammed with ads for bad games.

This is a fun and cute time management game that can keep you busy for a long time. The different worlds are nicely designed with lots of unique details. I like that they often add special event levels and daily challenges where you can win bonuses and have new things to cook. Most of the technical issues I mentioned in a previous review have all been fixed, but currently my monthly star chef card does not work (it got stuck months ago and doesn't restart for the new month).

I love the game, but it only works every so often. When logging in it will glitch and put you in a very frustrating loop with a choice to save data to the device or server. After selecting one it will spin you back to the loading screen, if you try to change countries it take you back around to choosing how to save the data and the process starts all over again.

Update: Just uninstalled the app because this is the second time I've randomly lost all progress. Nice game overall. However, it becomes blatantly obvious you wont win most levels without using spoons, which are expensive. I actually wouldn't mind doing so if the game was fair. We can see you purposely avoid giving us the right amount of customers on some levels. When you get to Paris, that becomes even more obvious and ridiculous. I really wouldnt mind paying for extras if the game was fair.

UPDATE: Since the game changed companies it is soooo slow to load and the graphics are not as good and it gets fuzzy at times. I was excited to see new countries added because I had finished but now after seeing the changes, not so much. Old review (was 5 stars) Very addicting game. It is challenging but fun and I actually made it to Rome so the difficulty isn't impossible. Just a hint, save your spoons for the end parts.

ETA: I've started a completely new game, starting over from the very beginning and I will say that it has improved a lot. I can enjoy playing without the stress of losing levels to the point of spending IRL cash! Becomes impossible to pass a level without using powerups once you get into the higher levels, and thats before I made it out of the first city. It's not worth the time and energy if I don't even have a shot without using a powerup or buying extra time and customers.
