Restaurant City for Facebook - Beginner's Guide

Restaurant City is one of the most popular games on Facebook right now. If you have just started playing, it can be quite overwhelming. This guide will help you get off to a great start. Even if you're not a beginner, but you're frustrated because you have a low rating or you seem to have a lot of unsatisfied customers, you'll find these tips helpful.

It's important to develop a good strategy in this game. Therefore, you must create a game plan that would keep your customers well accommodated to keep them happy. One good suggestion is that you create a diversion such as building a maze or adding video games before they can actually reach the dining area. That way, you can buy yourself time in order to accommodate the people who are seated at the same time.

Make sure your layout is designed for efficiency. Most players would agree that the best layout is one where the tables surround the waiters. This allows for quick service. Consider getting people to sit around the stove. You may not be aware of it, but if your waiter has to take more steps, it will take more time to bring plates to your customers. The longer they have to wait, the more likely it is they will be unsatisfied with their visit.

Avoid getting overzealous and placing so many tables in your restaurant that your waiters can't handle them efficiently. Instead of adding tables, it's better to add arcades or simply put a chair with no table in your restaurant. This is similar to a "waiting area" and will buy you some time before your tables free up. Of course, if they have to wait too long, they'll become angry.

Keep your waiters and cook healthy. Do not allow your worker's health to drop below anything less than 80%. Chances are, they will slow down, they will become dirty and the customers don't take to this well. Give them a glass of water to make them healthy again. This way, maintaining your workers won't cost you as much as you've earned when you are playing.

Rather than trying to get a ton of recipes, focus on one. You can only have one dinner, one appetizer and one desert. So, pick one of each and get to level 10 with it - that's going to do you the most good.

Close your restaurant when you leave the game if you can't get back in enough time. Just put something in front of the door or just remove the door itself. If you are about to save your progress in your game, remember that Restaurant City works in real time. Before you close down, make sure you either take down the door or block it to keep people from getting inside. This way, the next time you log in, you won't come back to a drastic drop in your rating and see trash all over your restaurant.
