The Manager Modern Restaurant Easy Sushi
6 July 2022
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to complain about a meal we had in your

restaurant yesterday. We had booked a table for six but
when we arrived there were no free tables and we had
to wait for more than 45 minutes to sit down. From a
menu of 12 dishes, only four were available and their
quality was poor. The fish in particular, tasted awful and
the waiter was rude when we told him about this.
We have eaten in your restaurant several times in the
past but this is the first time we have received such bad
treatment. I am not asking for a refund but I would like
you to improve the quality of your dishes and service.
Yours faithfully,
Azka Reyhan
Sekian Dan Terima kasih
