It’s very authentic. The food was fresh and delicious. Besides, the chef and attendant are very nice to us. The only thing you need to remember is to make a reservation as soon as you can

Best Okinawa place outside Okinawa Island!The food was fantastic and they have Draft Orion Beer!I've made so many friends in there during my stay in Honolulu, can't wait to visit again!See you soonFred from Italy ??

*Reservations Only!* Had a fantastic time in this izakaya. It's small and loud and makes the experience very exciting. Their draft beer (Orion) is served in chilled mugs and the Okinawan lime highball was refreshing.We had the beef tongue, quail eggs, chicken skin, aburi (seared mackerel), and a few more that weren't pictured. All their food is nicely shareable with friends and was delicious.

All food that would probably go good with a beer. I enjoyed it but it's a bit cramped for my tastes at the moment.

One of my favorite dinner spots in Honolulu. Reservations are needed at this time.We ordered several items from the specials and standard menu. From the current specials menu, I recommend the spicy bamboo shoots and simmered beef tongue rice.The portion sizes for several of the items were much larger than I expected, but I’d still recommend ordering around 3 dishes per person so that you can sample more items.Other items I enjoyed: sukiyaki pizza and soba with tofu (broth was SO good).

This was our first time eating Okinawan food. We got the tako wasabi, pickled spicy cucumber, the taco rice, the seared salted pork, and the grilled chicken skin. The tastes are pretty different from we are used to, but still pretty tasty.

This place feels like stepping into a cozy bar in Tokyo, the feeling is very authentic. Plus, the food and sake are amazing. The plating and presentation is just as good as the taste. You will not regret coming here! Get the taco bowl in the stone bowl, it is a sight to behold!

The food was absolutely on point. Definitely book a reservation because it seems like they weren't taking walk-ins. I didn't try the alcohol though but it looked like they had a lot of interesting choices.

Had a good price, great service, and was delicious. What more could you ask for? Make sure to make a reservation before coming. I saw they had to turn away many people at the door because the reservations were filled up till 10 on a Wednesday night.My favorite was the mackerel, followed by the taco rice. We also had the baguette stuffed with vanilla ice cream for dessert
