We made a reservation for 16 including 4 children. After getting seated the staff tried to compact our group with each seat edge touching to fit more guests in. The manager explained that because we had children we would have to put them on our lap or swat them behind us to make room for other customers that were going to purchase more plates. He told us that because our children were sharing meals they had to be seated away from our group. Our reservation was made weeks in advance for two birthday parties, mine included. The staff was rude and
Unaccommodating. The manager called us cheap round eyes because we weren't purchasing individual meals for each of our children. My only regret is not video taping this horrible interaction on my phone. We are friends with one of the head chefs and have followed him for many years. We were treated almost this poorly our last visit in March for another birthday. We've had enough. The staff, the managers are rude and dare I say it, racist. We will never return to any Japanese Village Restaurant ever again.
