These are often graded as {{nihongo|2=松竹梅|3=[[shō-chiku-bai]]}}, {{nihongo3|pine|松|shō/matsu}}, {{nihongo3|bamboo|竹|chiku/take}}, and {{nihongo3|plum|梅|bai/ume}}, with {{transliteration|ja|matsu}} the most expensive and {{transliteration|ja|ume}} the cheapest.{{citation needed|date=December 2012|reason=And what about shō-chiku-bai?}} Sushi restaurants will often have private booth dining, where guests are asked to remove their shoes, leaving them outside the room; However, most sushi bars offer diners a casual experience with an open dining room concept.
