The service you get in the US is very annoying to people not used to it. Fake-smiling at me especially.

Which other countries with little to no tipping culture do you receive amazing service?

Again, I am curious, not combative, so please take care if applying disdain to my comments.

In my opinion, I get amazing service in Denmark.

I would guess that what I consider to be amazing service isn't the same thing as what you would consider to be amazing service.

Japan.

Really awkward as well. Basically the whole staff was waving at us until we went around the corner and they couldn’t see us any more. Didn’t know what to do - ignore, acknowledge, turn back and keep eye contact while still walking forward, smile, stop, wave ...

This was a high-end restaurant though.

Taiwan as well

Outside of that it's on an establishment by establishment basis. I know an amazing restaurant in a less touristic Paris arrondissement that will provide stellar service no matter who I show up with or how terrible my French is. Their menus are only in French. If I'm not fast enough the staff notices I'm using a translation app and starts translating it into English.

This in the city of famously terrible service.

Japan. Phenomenal service every single place I went and some was so good we tried tipping only to be chased into the street to have the “mistake” fixed.
