Bon Appetite!
-
Despite a slightly flawed interface and presentation, provides an enjoyable and deep strategy experience.
-
Those that like management sims, dealing with the minutia of number crunching and furniture placement, and still enjoy The Sims will have a good time with it.
-
A nice little sim, with only a few flaws keeping it from reaching that higher echelon of sim titles.

Computer Games MagazineIf you're new to immensely detailed simulation games, Restaurant Empire might be frustrating, but it's very accessible, since you can lower the difficulty until you get the hang of it. [July 2003, p.80]
-
In the end, the word of the day is "detail." Restaurant Empire has it to spare, incorporating design, bean-counting, empire-building, and plenty of customization into its gameplay. And yet, it's not that tricky to learn.
-
The combination of statistical depth and the persistence of the players accomplishments is not to be ignored. Unfortunately, it does not quite reach the level of crossover appeal that it seems to desire.

PC GamerDespite its minor flaws, RE successfully combines the excitement of the restaurant biz with the deep number-crunching of a dedicated business sim. [July 2003, p.81]
-
It offers a fresh approach to the economic simulation market. It's not stretching things too far to think of Restaurant Empire as the long-awaited but still unannounced workplace expansion for "The Sims."
