The other big one is that there's no tipping. Since it's outside of Japan, I wouldn't say these apply necessarily, but something good to keep in mind if you find you're waiting forever and no one's come to take your order yet. xD From personal experience, the Japanese restaurant nearest to me has no tipping, but the service is like a typical American restaurant.

Just act like an American (a polite American) when you go to a restaurant in America. Even if they are real Japanese people they expect you to act like an American. And if you just assume they're Japanese because they're Asian and they work in a Japanese restaurant you could get into trouble, so... yeah.
