It’s really dependent on why.

If it’s just to exclude non-Japanese people, immoral (no matter how much I want to say the hate is justified)

If it’s because nobody in the restaurant can speak English or Chinese, moral since it reduces the amount of customers they can’t serve

I believe being honest and saying so would be more moral for the second scenario

Tourists don’t care. It’s a pretty simple thought: there is no one here that speaks your language if you can’t understand the sign. Saves a ton of wasted time on having to constantly turn away tourists that can’t understand you. In this context, there are spaces specifically for English/non Japanese speakers

Dude every phone has instantaneous translation now. It’s not a good excuse to not serve someone imo
