Speaking Japanese at a Restaurant
Speaking correct Japanese at a Restaurant is of utmost importance.
(Because if do mistakes, we won't have any idea as to what lands in our plate :heheheπ
So here are a few sentences we might find useful in a Restaurant :
Are you open? -> Aaite aarimasu ka ?
A table for (1, 2, 3, 4) please.
1 = hitori

So here are a few sentences we might find useful in a Restaurant :
Are you open? -> Aaite aarimasu ka ?
A table for (1, 2, 3, 4) please.
1 = hitori
2 = futari
3 = sannin
4 = yonin
Can we sit at that table? -> Ano teeburu de ii desu ka.
To call a waiter say ->Sumimasen. (It means excuse me.)
Please bring the menu. -> Menyuu o onegai shimasu.
Please come back in a minute. (for the waiter) -> Chotto matte kudasai.
Do you have this? (pointing to the picture on the menu) -> Kore aarimasu ka.
Do you take credit cards? -> Kureditto kaado wa tsukaemasu ka.
Do you have any vegetarian dishes? -> Niku mo Sakana mo haitte inai ryoori ga arimasu ka
(Here, Niku means meat and Sakana means fish.
This sentence will be very useful in Japan if we are cautious about what we eat.)
Could we please have the check? -> Okanjoo o onegai shimasu.
Thanks for the delicious meal. (said to the waiter or cash register clerk when leaving)
-> Gochisou sama deshita.

Sahithi PallaviNice! I'm practicing and later on ask some sentences.
I have a small doubt. Previously, you said "Aarigato" means Thanks.
There is no "Aarigato" in this "Gochisou sama deshita" whichmeant Thanks for the delicious meal.
Sorry if I asked anything wrong!

Ankita KatdareGood point Sahithi.
Actually, the word "Gochisou" means feast. "Sama" is a word given for respect.
There is no literal meaning to it. It is an expression used after everyday meals, to thank about the food served.
Like before eating, its customary for Japanese people to say "Itadakimasu" , which also has no literal meaning.
It's like showing a feeling of gratitude towards the food we are receiving. (I am sure there are customs like these all over India too.) -
Sahithi PallaviThanks for the clarification AKD π
