Restaurant to Another World is a Japanese cooking fantasy isekai anime television series directed by Masato Jinbo and licensed by Crunchyroll and Funimation. This anime series is based on the light novel series of the same name by Junpei Inuzuka and Katsumi Enami. The anime series adaptation was released on July 4, 2017. The second season was launched on October 2, 2021.
The third season of Restaurant To Another World probably might be the most awaited return for the forthcoming year. Although the second season just completed its 12-episode run in December 2021, fans are fixated on further announcements. Both first and second seasons received favorable responses from the audience. With the exact scrumptious dishes to distribute storylines, fans of this show are clamoring for more feasts in the upcoming season. So what will happen in the third season? Let’s find out below.
Has Restaurants To Another World Been Renewed For Season 3?
As of March 18, 2025, the show has not been officially confirmed by the makers for a third season run. However, given the popularity of the show and the ongoing nature of the source material, there remains strong speculation that a third season could still happen. Fans are hopeful for an announcement, though none has surfaced yet.
There are several reasons to remain optimistic about a third season. First, this anime series maintains a solid fanbase; the first season was a hit, and the second season built on that success. Additionally, Junpei Inuzuka’s light novel series is ongoing, with seven volumes released in Japan as of late 2024, providing more material beyond what the anime has covered so far. The anime has adapted roughly the first six volumes, leaving room for further adaptation.
Despite the lack of an official announcement, the combination of the show’s popularity and available source material keeps hope alive for a third season. We shall update this space as and when any information is available—until then, please stay connected with us!
The Cast and Characters of Restaurants To Another World Season 3
If a third season happens, fans can expect the central characters as appeared in the first and second seasons to return in the third season as well including–
- Master will be voiced by Junichi Suwabe
- Sumire Uesaka will voice the character of Aletta
- Saori Ōnishi will voice the character of Kuro
- Daiki Yamagata will be voiced by Kazuhiko Inoue
- Kikuko Inoue will return as the voice of Koyomi “Yomi” Yamagata
Currently, it’s not known if there will be new characters involved in the next season but it likely will.
Restaurant To Another World Season 3 Storylines: What Can We Expect?
We assume that the third season will be the final season of the series and it’s difficult to predict what might actually take place in the future. The first and second seasons of Restaurant To Another World followed the original storyline as in the light novel series. Nekoya will likely be the main focus in the third season as well.
As per Monsters and Critics, the last two episodes from the second season began adapting the previously published sixth volume of the light novel, meaning there would be enough source material for forthcoming seasons to be created.
However, fans need to wait for a while for the makers to come up with new episodes as it usually takes about a year or two to launch a new season of anime series.
Release Date of Restaurant To Another World Season 3: When Will It Premiere?
As mentioned previously, the third season has not been renewed as of March 18, 2025, and therefore, an official release date remains undecided.
Given the three-year gap between the first and second seasons (2017 to 2021), a similar timeline suggests a potential release no earlier than late 2025 or 2026, assuming renewal occurs soon. Production delays and the need for additional source material could push this further. It’s highly unlikely fans will see a third season in 2025 without an announcement in the near future.
Restaurants To Another World Storyline (Spoilers ahead)
As with the majority of the anime series, Isekai Shokudo’s most intriguing aspect was its plot. The center of the show is “The Western Restaurant Nekoya.” It is located in a drab and dull shopping area in Tokyo. The restaurant specializes in serving Japanese renditions of well-known meals from the United States and Europe.
Although it is open during regular business hours, the restaurant is usually closed on weekends. It primarily draws city employees because it is accessible throughout working hours. The weekend events, however, are another way this restaurant differentiates from the competition. Because Saturdays are special, the eatery opens covertly on certain days.
It unlocks a secret door that leads to a fascinating world full of fantastical creatures. Elves, dragons, animals, and strange creatures inhabit this world. These strange customers are welcome to dine at the restaurant on the weekends and enjoy its distinctive menu.
Some of them frequent this restaurant and their presence really enhances the welcoming atmosphere there. The show’s protagonist is Nekoya, one of the restaurant’s waitresses. However, it has evolved into more than just a restaurant; it now serves as a gathering place for their animals.
Fan Theories for Restaurant to Another World Season 3
As fans eagerly await news of a third season, speculation is simmering about what might unfold at Nekoya. One popular theory suggests a crossover event, with heroes from other isekai series—like Rimuru from “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime”—stepping through the magical door for a taste of Master’s dishes, blending worlds in a feast-filled celebration of the genre. Another idea centers on new customers from the upcoming seventh light novel volume (set for release July 29, 2025), such as the fairy people of the Land of Flowers, who could bring a whimsical twist with their love for crepes, adding fresh faces to the restaurant’s weekend roster.
Meanwhile, some fans theorize that season 3 could explore the origins of Nekoya’s mysterious door, perhaps revealing it as a creation tied to Master’s lineage or a past mage, with a threat to close it prompting regulars like elves and dragons to rally in its defense. Others hope for expanded roles for Aletta and Kuro, diving into their backstories, or a grand finale feast uniting all past characters for an emotional send-off. With no official word as of March 18, 2025, these fan ideas keep the anticipation cooking—any theories of your own to stir into the pot?
