HOW TO PLAY. Keep customers happy by serving them as fast as you can. The happier they are, the more points you earn.

At the end of each round, spend some of your profit on upgrades to your diner. Get a nicer awning, install a fancy countertop for the kitchen, add a flower box to the front, and more.

Reach the target number of points to win a level. If the customers wait too long, they'll get upset and leave.

SEATING CUSTOMERS. Click and drag a customer group to a clean table. Move your mouse to place them in matching color seats. The more times you match a seat color, the bigger the bonus.

SERVING FOOD. When the chef finishes cooking an order, the covered dish appears on the counter. Click on the food on the counter to pick it up. Click the corresponding table to drop it off.
