Yukemuri Restaurant Shirogane — Restaurant in Obanazawa

Me and my friend visited this restaurant in Feb 2024. I entered the restaurant and I asked if we would like to dine at the restaurant , how should we proceed.

The waitress ask me to write down my name in the reservation list/waiting list. Before I did that, I specifically mentioned that we are a group of 16 adults and we don't mind separate seating and we can devide to come at different time. And he said ok.
