RNA - Christian Schulz, manager of a Seekrug restaurant in Bielefeld, western Germany, reportedly asked the woman to remove the full-face veil as she sat in the busy beer garden during an annual light festival.
The woman is said to have refused, at which point Mr. Schulz reportedly expelled her from the restaurant, the Independent reported.
The restaurant manager was subsequently subject to a barrage of criticism on the restaurant's Facebook page, which he has since deleted.
After removing the comments, Mr. Schulz wrote a public post on the page saying: "I just deleted two posts with almost 800 comments.
"This is growing over my head. I would have never made it public. However, I have to finish my business before the negative ratings shoot up.
"Thank you for your solidarity. Now we want to do our job again and a give our nice guests a good service."
Mr. Schulz had said he ordered the woman to leave because of fears the full-face veil made other guests uncomfortable during a busy event.
