The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with players expressing frustration over glitches that disrupt quest completion and a lack of new content. Many users feel that the game's goals are either too difficult to achieve within the given time or are rendered meaningless due to programming issues, leading to a repetitive and unsatisfying experience. Overall, while the game has a loyal fanbase, the current state of the story elements is seen as lacking and in need of significant updates.
- “I've been playing bakery story and restaurant story since 2013 and let's not forget dragon story.”
- “I really loved restaurant story until they took away goals and new ovens.”
- “Restaurant story is a great game but it asks you to download restaurant founders which is pretty much the same thing but there's no 'watch ads for gems' and no option to speed up food except with gems.”
- “It's bad enough that you give us two weeks to finish quests that take a minimum of a month to actually get done, but when we reach the end of those two weeks and discover that all of our investments didn't count because of bad programming (I bought the event oven, it's right there, I'm looking at it, but I don't have credit for it in the quest window and it's not responding to screen taps).”
- “Since the developers decided to shorten the length of time to complete goals, I do not have enough neighbors to complete building things before the quest ends!”
- “Mf app sucks now... get out of sync one time it loads missions you completed from level 1, you can be on level 70, you gotta check missions you done from the beginning... and then you can start cooking something, come back and the whole grill oven stove is empty. The app has hella bugs.”
