Why is it looked down upon to order water at a restaurant?

Current Events

despite my previous comment, i think the attitude is a bit different in EU than in the US. over there, you need to specifically order "tap water" or else they bring you a bottle. i was at a restaurant in Amsterdam one time and ordered 'tap water' and the server, no joke, literally scoffed at me and goes "... sir, this is a restaurant." i said "uh, i get that and i am ordering food. but i don't need a bottle of fancy water and i am perfectly happy with tap water.' he brought out like a 6oz glass and only gave me one single refill, after asking twice.
I hope something good happens to you today
