Restaurant prestige rating

[magicd1]

I am trying to get my restaurant to 4 stars as required in the Ghostbuster sceneario. I have 22 tables, 7 brands,and a 92% scenery rating. free condomints for the perk. With all this I only have a 2 star rating. Any ideas?

Me too. Hope someone sees this...

I play on Window, Mac or consoles could be different. I haven't tried for that one, and don't do much with Restaurants, but given that they use similar metrics to Hotels (which I've done more with):

Perks only spread so far, the more rooms (or tables) the less effective they are. With Hotels the limit for a 5-star is 20 rooms. Is there a minimum # of tables you need for the goal?

There's likely to be a "sweet spot" for the number of brands, too many can be almost as bad as too few.

You probably need your scenery at 100%, and with Restaurants/Hotels/Staffrooms I've never really figured out where the scenery needs to be to trip the counter. On a ride queue it's obvious, but for those it's not enough to have a well-decorated building -- decorating too far from the entrance and room blocks, even on their building, seems ineffective. Also, the path/s up to the entrance needs to be well-decorated.

But that's just what I've got, and it's not my strong suit. Hopefully someone who knows better will weigh in.

I got 4 stars. Too many brands reduces the Prestige score. Try this... Only have 4 or 5 brands. Ignore the others at first. Have one menu item from each brand. I had 2 drinks on the menu, but within the same brand. Make sure a janitor is assigned who isn't too busy with other work. Make sure the scenery score is 100%
You should find guests will start to leave glowing reviews as you get to 4 Prestige.
