Restaurants take too long

It seems like that when dining at a restaurant, there is a lot of time that passes between the time a sim is seated, and the food is brought out. I usually order right away. It averages 3 hours, but my sims have once been stuck at a restaurant for 5 hours. Can we speed up the time to bring out food?

    I just tried a restaurant in sims 2. They don't mess around in that game! I was served within minutes. I placed the order, then I decided I wanted to check on the waitress. The next thing I knew, she was carrying the food to the table.

    I do believe, however, that the system in sims 4 is much more organized. That is to our benefit.

    Another funny thing from sims 2 is that I directed a husband and wife to get in the car to go to the restaurant. The wife quickly got into the car, but the husband was taking too long to leave the house. So she left without him! They were bold in the sims 2!


    LOL ahhh the sims 2 how I miss that game so much. I might need to fire it back up and play a little.

    In Sims 2, the played sims food is top priority. No matter who comes in and order before you, your food was always priority, It also did not take the sims as long to prepare meals at least in the restaurants which helps too. Maybe they can increase food preparations on the chef station to help move restaurants along more efficiently.

    I timed my sims this time.

    They arrived at 6:20, and paid at 9:15. There were two other tables who were served before them.

    It was one of my more poorly laid out restaurants.


    I see about the same as well. If my sims order as soon as they sit, they are usually served even faster.
