- “A very challenging game, great art and soundtrack.”
- “Lovely graphics and music.”
- “Nice concept and great soundtrack.”
- “The music and sound is just okay for a $2.69 game, though it could certainly use more than one music track.”
- “- Minor bugs: music cutting out, clicking the game when you're tabbed out doesn't get you back into it, etc.”

The gameplay is described as simplistic and linear, primarily revolving around assembling burgers based on customer orders with no significant improvements or variety as the game progresses. Players must memorize orders due to the lack of visible information during cooking, which adds a layer of difficulty but may feel frustrating and primitive. Overall, the mechanics seem to lack depth, leading to questions about the game's appeal.
- “So gameplay is extremely primitive, the devs thought and decided to make it as difficult as possible, mainly by making it a memory game. You have to memorize orders before stuffing ingredients because you can't see order information while in the cooking menu.”
- “Which doesn't make a lot of sense but is an interesting game mechanic, I suppose.”
- “That's the whole gameplay loop right there, you eventually get more tables and more ingredients but that's it, just a linear difficulty curve with no gameplay improvements along the way.”
- “Gameplay consists of customers showing up ordering a burger (never more than one and never soda or fries), click on correct ingredients in correct order and you made the burger, then you have to drag and drop it on a customer.”
- “So gameplay is extremely primitive, 'why would anyone want to buy this?' the devs thought and decided to make it as difficult as possible, mainly by making it a memory game, you have to memorize orders before stuffing ingredients because you can't see order information while in the cooking menu.”
