One special day a week, every races in all kind of world will have a chance to enter Nekoya, a special restaurant run by a masterful chef. There they can all enjoy a good evening with wonderful foods that they never have a chance to eat. And thus, that is the story we, the viewers, will follow.
With a story like that, Isekai Shokudou is definitely a character-driven show. While its main cast is small, which consists of the master chef, a homeless elf waitress and also another waitress in disguise of a powerful black dragon, the supporting cast is quite large and absolutely amazing. To me, they play a part as big as the main ones which leads to the selling point of this show, its wonderful interaction between every characters.
What separates the characters of this show from the usual tropes we've seen in countless anime is they're given proper personalities with proper back story to solidify it and as a result, they have proper and natural characterization. Plus, their interaction with each other is funny and interesting.
As expected from a modern anime, the color tone of this show is bright, adding to the cheerfulness nature of the anime. But the characters designs are quite standard. The soundtrack of this anime is also forgettable imo and only one or two tracks sounds really good.
Wrapping up, it's a good show to kill time and If you have 4 hours to spare, I would recommend Restaurant from another world.
