What are those strips of fabric called at the entrance of a Japanese restaurant?

Like in anime or old Japanese Restaurants, there is cloth hanging at the entrance, halfway or so down that looks as though it’s been cut into wide strips. Does anyone know what it’s called? Or if it even has a specific name? It would be great to know, since I’m really curious.
