📖 About This Game

El Restaurante is a fast-paced and highly energetic board game that captures the frantic rhythm of life in a bustling restaurant. Players step into the shoes of hard-working waiters whose main objective is to serve all the tables as quickly and efficiently as possible before their rivals do. The game features simultaneous actions that keep everyone on edge from start to finish. Each player must try to get rid of their 15 work-pile cards by completing tasks and fulfilling orders, all while balancing another key element: in their other hand, they hold a tray containing 10 extra cards that can be used as valuable resources or strategic advantages at just the right moment. This dynamic combination of speed, multitasking, and tactical decision-making ensures that no two games of The Restaurant are ever the same. It’s the perfect challenge for those who enjoy competitive gameplay, rapid-fire thinking, and the thrilling chaos of the restaurant world! —description from the designer
