Ristorante Amore is a freeware Ren'Py otome game by Cyanide Tea in which you take on the role of Lily Kingston, a recent college graduate who has just started work as a waitress at her uncle's high-class Italian restaurant. Though she's clumsy and has a lot to learn, Lily finds good friends in her co-workers: the serious and hard-working Ethan, the princely sous-chef Pierre, the fun-loving jock Liam, and the cute but shy waiter Laura.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The game is divided into two sections, dubbed the prologue and the post-prologue. It can be downloaded here.The post-prologue folder contains unmarked spoilers. Tread with caution. |

The Danza: invoked All the characters have the same names in real life as the characters they play in the game. Except for Josh as Pierre, through the director told everyone to call him "Pierre" off-hours so they wouldn't slip up on-set. |

comment |
Cute Clumsy Girl: Lily routinely drops entire stacks of plates and messes up orders. Laura is also inexperienced and careless on occasion. Pierre comments in the post-prologue how a real restaurant would never hire people like them, and he's probably right. The authors likely intended for Lily's clumsiness to be Up to Eleven to poke fun at regular clumsy otome heroines. Lily breaks hundreds of dollars of fine china on a near-daily basis. |
