ALL SPOILERS ARE UNMARKED. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!


  • Each of Rody’s nightmares are terrifying, as they all depict Rody getting eaten in increasingly violent ways.
  • Looking through the Easter Egg peephole in the dining room on day six will lead to a surprising eye jumpscare.
  • Each of the endings are horrifying in their own ways:
    • The "Table for One" ending: Rody desperately tries to call Manon but she doesn't pick up, all while the ringing tone drones on endlessly. He never finds out what happened to her, or that his old boss might be responsible for her disappearance.
    • The "Best Served Cold" ending: Rody tries to escape from his bindings, but to no avail. Vince eventually comes into the freezer, menacingly agreeing to giving Rody a 15-second head start out of there. Of course, being tied up, Rody can only inch so far before his time is up, and Vince kills him unceremoniously.
    • The "Best Served Hot" and "Abattoir" endings: Rody manages to escape his bindings and leave the freezer, but Vince is waiting right outside. No matter how you do on the quick-time events, Vince will at some point manage to sink his teeth into Rody's ear and rip it off. Rody eventually stalls Vince long enough to get a hold of a broken wine bottle and stabs Vince repeatedly in the throat, burning alive alongside his restaurant.
      • And if you fail enough of the quick-time events, Vince will finally stab Rody to death, and decides to use the freshly-dead corpse as his next menu item.
