If you are travelling with young children or older adults, look for restaurants with spacious tables, easy access between seating areas and quieter dining spaces. For garden restaurants, ask whether covered seating is available in case the weather changes.
The menu should also offer options for different ages and tastes. Rice, soup, vegetables and steamed dishes are easy to combine into a shared family meal, while buffets provide a wider selection. For groups of six or more, booking a table around 2–3 days in advance is recommended. It is also worth asking about high chairs, group menus and any additional charges.
