Unique Jap treat! Unlike raw servings like sashimi , Okinawan cuisine is cooked. We enjoyed all recommendations: simmered pork belly (& noodle ), fried bitter gourd , fried chicken , simmered eggplant

Pheobe Tan

Signature dishes are the pork ribs , stewed pork and fried bittergourd . All delicious. Burst of collagen with the roasted pork ribs . Their stewed pork is done only with shoyu , unlike our Lor bak

Shannon Low

Unique Japanese food . Clean and flavourful dishes, pretty large portions . Minced beef and pork cutlets , ladies fingers and peanut beancurd , kimchee belly pork were great.

Okinawa was my favorite diving spot when I lived in Japan. Have been craving for Okinawan since I moved to New York. It was worth using one of my dinner slots while visiting Singapore to eat here!

Rachel Lim

Love the delicate nutty peanut bean curd that comes with the set meal . Do come early for the Okinawan soup ramen . Sold out when I was there on a weekend at 2ish pm

Catherine Ganapathy

This place is a gem! Had the bittergourd set. They removed all the pork for me to accommodate my dietary restrictions. The ambience takes me straight to Okinawa. The food is legit!

Hilary Low

Back here after 2 years and things have certainly changed. Ordered the kimchi pork belly and the portion has shrunk by half, with more kimchi than pork . Same thing with the bittergourd with pork .

Orion beer . Brewed by d 5th largest beer brewery in Japan, HQ in Urasoe, Okinawa Prefecture. For a true Okinawan experience!

SomChun Malikul

Love Okinawa rice ! Nice flavor together wth lovely taste Orion beer . Not bitter like Asahi . Just nice for dinner :)

Edd

Pair the tangy al Dente cold noodles with the flavourful braised pork belly !

Gabriel Seah

Fried meat miso and peanut tofu are especially excellent. Miso is not salty, is intensely savory and umami. Peanut tofu very refreshing

Mindy Yap

The silky gourd, with minced pork is divine. Smoky, sweet, salty. I could eat it every day. OK...I can’t, but u get the point.

Soohan Han

Pretty authentic jap food here. I had the bitter gourd and pork set. Yummy!

Supermodelme

Diner done up like a little beach shack. Okinawan food is influenced by Chinese and Thai cuisine; their specialty here is definitely the large melting slabs of pork belly braised in soy sauce .

Cheen The Curious

Fried chicken was lightly battered, & comes w a dipping sauce . Special!

Anna Ragen

This place is a gem, such good food. The cold noodles are awesome as is just about everything else!

Riann Goettl Seymour

Great place, nice atmosphere and feels like Okinawa.

Jeremy Wong

The hamburg steak set is awesome, its meat is very juicy. Peanut tofu is a must try too.

Kenneth Chua

Closest you can get to Okinawa taste in singapore

Brian Neu

Last order varies. They close at 11 but last order is usually 10. Arrived at 9.48pm and was told by staff that they've stopped last orders for the day.

Cheryl Yamato Zala

rafute, naberushi, seasoned rice are all must haves

One of my favourite Japanese restaurants and no, I never had to wait that long for food to arrive.

It's called sōki amiyaki and the cartilage melts in your mouth

Jim Khor

Love their peanut beancurd ! ;__;

Kwang Liak Teo

Order a stewed pork dish , it's great.

Daniel Ang

Service is really bad. Waited to sit even though there is no queue. And waited 15 mins to order & no service staff came. Gives Jap service a bad name

York Lou Too

Service is lacking. County stall trying to make it in a big city .

Janice

Very slow service! While the food is not bad, I don't think it's worth the 40-45 minutes wait.
