Knowing the characteristics of American restaurants, new immigrants can initially judge when they should choose which restaurant, but they should pay attention to the following aspects when eating in American restaurants.
(1) Choose suitable restaurants, such as family restaurants, specialty restaurants and self-service restaurants.
(2) business hours of restaurants. American restaurants generally open at 11:31 a.m. until evening. But some are closed at night and Sunday.
(3) Many restaurants in China have a table when they go, but in the United States, it is generally necessary to reserve a table in advance.
(4) In China, after arriving at a restaurant, as long as there is a vacant seat, most people can sit casually. However, in the United States, after arriving at a restaurant, you can't go straight to the table and sit down, unless the restaurant has a notice of "Sit at will", and you should sit down under the guidance of the waiter.
(5) When paying, don't forget to leave a certain percentage of the tip for the waiter, which is generally about 15% of the bill.
