Please let us build restaurants with Kotatsu tables

As I said, they don't use them much in restaurants in Japan, probably because of the laundry bills.

BUT, now that I've played the game, I realize it doesn't have a non-kotatsu low table option either. I was surprised when I went into the izakaya and all the tables were the western-style ones that you sit on with chairs. What kind of izakaya is that ??? Every izakaya I've been too had short tables on tatami floors that you could sit on the floor with. They really need some low tables so that Sims could sit on the floor, and not just the heated kotatsu. s

In fact, they probably could just include a design option under the kotatsu that has the table and floor cushions, without the cover and heating element. Or they could make zabuton floor cushions, and an option to sit on the floor around coffee tables if you have zabuton.

Speaking of Japanese restaurants, how do you set it up so that sims will take their shoes off when they enter your house (or restaurant) ? My daughter and I both built houses in the Japanese town, and people walk around in them with their shoes on. People also walk all over the onsen with them on. It's strange.

I hope this gets fixed! it would be great to be able to use Kotatsu tables in restaurant builds

Agree, and also I wish toddlers could sit at them

I got excited and downloaded a sushi restaurant from the gallery but it took hours to get seated, then my sims just wouldn't sit for some reason, go to the vending machine while waiting for the food, the food comes hours later and one of them doesn't get her order. I had to cheat their hunger bar to full and pretend they had a nice meal together. The restaurants are soo buggy. But kotatsu tables are buggy as well in my opinion or maybe I have bad luck. Maybe they couldn't function properly together, it was too buggy that they had to exclude them

This is a super cute idea, I also want to see some sushi. And to be able to own a fast food restaurant!

If you have the Cities expansion, you can order sushi from the street vendors, and your sim can get recipes for things sold by the food vendors if they eat them.

The Snowy expansion also has sushi at the street vendors, but you can't get the recipes to make them from the vendors there.
