This study aims to examine two types of performance appraisal systems used to assess food operators to maintain high employee job satisfaction.  About 250 questionnaires were distributed around Kampung Bharu area in Kuala Lumpur.   The number of questionnaires returned were 210 but only 205 questionnaires were usable for the present study. SPSS was used to analyse the data to test the hypotheses. There were four variables researched in this study, namely Behaviour-Based Performance Appraisal System, Competency-Based Performance Appraisal System, appraiser, and job satisfaction. There was a direct and significant relationship between both appraisal systems with the appraiser (H1 and H2) and employee job satisfaction (H4 and H5) respectively. There was also a direct and significant relationship between the appraiser and restaurant employees’ job satisfaction (H3). The role ofthe appraiser was identified as a mediator in the relationship between Competency-Based Performance Appraisal System and employee job satisfaction (H7). However, the role of the appraiser partially mediated the relationship between Behaviour-Based Performance Appraisal System and employee job satisfaction (H6). The appraiser was regarded as critical in ensuring that the appraisal system adopted be carried out fairly, professionally, and rationally with adequate knowledge to boost job satisfaction among food operator employees in Kuala Lumpur.
