Run a Restaurant! Beginner Guide

The first session, in the order a new restaurant actually breaks.

First session

  1. Serve one table yourself — Seat the guest, cook the order, deliver it, and wash the dishes. An opening wash was about 20 seconds. Learn that cycle before you buy a theme.
  2. Hire the stuck role — Cook first if you are still cooking. Waiter first if guests or plates are waiting. Cleaner when dirty tables are the delay. A three-person floor is a compact setup, not a limit.
  3. Then stop the cheap fallback — Rice becomes a roughly $10 plate when a better recipe is missing stock. Enable a backup such as pumpkin soup before you turn the gourmet dish on alone.
  4. Spend the next cash on flow — Short paths, the farm unlock, and training levels 3, 5, 7, and 10 beat decor. The manager at level 55 costs 2.5M and can wait.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What do you actually do in Run a Restaurant!?

Cook recipes, serve customers, build and decorate, farm crops, raise animals, and hire staff. The restaurant can keep earning while you are offline if that staff can finish the loop.

Who should a new player hire first?

Hire a cook if you are still cooking every plate, or a waiter if guests and finished plates are the delay. Add a cleaner when dirty dishes block tables. The manager waits until level 55.

Why is the kitchen suddenly selling rice?

Rice is the fallback when a fancier recipe is missing an ingredient. Keep a backup such as pumpkin soup enabled, and refill honey, milk, and pumpkin before you rely on pie.

Do promo codes give Robux?

No. The codes that were published give furniture, a Captain's Wheel and a Fancy Painting. Anything asking for your Roblox password is not a code redemption.
