Restaurant to Another World season 2 will likely follow the story from the last season. Although the anime does not follow any linear plot, the portal to another world will keep opening on Saturdays.
It is the most amazing feature of the restaurant that allows all manner of unearthly creatures to sit down for a nice meal.
Elves, dragons, or anyone who wants to sample our world’s cuisine is welcome to partake before returning to their world, sated and ready for their next quest.
Hilda, a young demon mercenary known for her excellent night vision and scary ability to accurately detect even the quietest sounds, will set foot at the Western Cuisine Nekoya for the first time in the upcoming season.

9. Conclusion
The restaurant in the series acts as a no man’s land for anyone from any world to come and feast upon the most delicious foods. Seeing the blissful expressions of the customers and how the restaurant changes the lives of its customers is breathtaking.
I’m curious to know what kind of impact Nekoya will have on the new character, Hilda. Will she become a patron of the mysterious restaurant? With a new studio and character designer, will season 2 exceed our expectations, or will it be a letdown?
