店員さんに、「今、席が空きましたので、すぐご案内しますので1階でお待ちください」と言われたあと30分待たされて、呼ばれないので、もう一度状況を聞きに行くと、空いていた席は予約していた人達なのかわからないですけど、席は埋まり満席になってました。予約してない客は、客としてみていただけない、接客が最悪なお店です。尾道は他に沢山いい店がありますので、他の所もよく調べて行くことをオススメします。

Hiroshima Areas

There is more than meets the eye awaiting any Hiroshima-bound traveler. Kicking off in Hiroshima city, the Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima Castle, and Shukkeien Garden offer a couple of days of exploring; however, the real beauty lies along the southern coast of the prefecture. There, a series of islands spreads across the Seto Inland Sea: from the mysterious sea-submerged Great Torii Gate at Miyajima Island to the first half of the islands that connect Honshu to Shikoku via six spectacular suspension bridges.
