"Wow, what a great experience that was! You need to leave your shoes at the entrance and the restaurant is a very traditional Japanese style. You get your own traditional Japanese room! Customer service is just amazing! They are really friendly and loving. I am really glad that we went to this restaurant. Really one of its kind."

"Excellent service, atmosphere, and traditional Ryukyu royal cuisine. I am by no means a connoisseur, but was very impressed at the presentation and taste of their food.
Reservation has to be called in and made in Japanese. Fortunately we had a friend helped making the reservation. Hotel front desk should be able to do the same.
They had our table ready in a beautiful traditional Okinawan home. Thoughfully accommodated us with hand-written English menu describing the course (we had the Deigo dinner course for 2).
Very unique and pleasant experience. Highly recommend!"

The Best Restaurants On Okinawa Island, Japan
This high-end restaurant perfectly replicates the atmosphere of old Okinawa, bringing the Ryukyu Kingdom’s culture to life through traditional design, tableware and cuisine. Located in an unassuming backstreet in the heart of the island’s capital Naha, it serves authentic multi-course Ryukyu meals reminiscent of the feasts of old. Each dish is lovingly prepared and exquisitely presented, the end result being as much a work of art as a meal.
