BLUE Restaurant & Bar ブルーレストラン — Restaurant in Shirahama

Racism- The service was terrible. We wanted to reserve a table, and the person who looks like the manager wasn't very happy with our reservation. He tried to convince us that our reservation time wasn't good because most of the food could run out. We still ask for a reservation, and we ask for 9 pm.

Moreover, he arbitrarily charged us for water on our second visit because “It’s a bar and you should drink at a bar. So I will charge you for water if you don’t drink this time.” despite our ordering multiple food items from the menu both nights and giving him business during a difficult pandemic.

To the owner, if you’re proud of your original food dishes, you should be grateful of anyone who gives patronage to your establishment, regardless if they wish to drink alcohol or not. You’re listed as a...
