Oh I didn’t mean to imply it was unpleasant, just certainly not as attentive, you’ll have to ask for refills on water or spend spend a long time waiting. Though that said in Tokyo the service was on par with New York and they don’t have tipping culture either.
In Europe though, the waiters get healthcare and good wages so they have reason to be happy.
Idk what experiences you’ve had but i’ve had nothing but downright pleasant service in Europe.
In my experience, if an american says they’re consistently getting bad service in europe it’s because they’re being inconsiderate or rude
