A calm adult space.

The cuisine is creative cuisine based on Japanese cuisine.
Taking advantage of obanzai,
There were many creative dishes that changed daily 🤤

At the counter seat
You can see the cooking process,
You can also enjoy conversations with the chefs and staff!

As the head chef has experience in Japanese cuisine,
Assorted sashimi
Of course the best✨

Great for garnishing tempura etc.
You can see the artistic commitment,
Other dishes too
Each dish is carefully made,
Your five senses will be shaken😍

I was surprised that the BGM was a J-Pop nostalgic song,
Personally, I think it's a striking generation.
That was good✨

Is it because the price is a little high?
Since there are not many young customers,
The store is not noisy
It was a mature atmosphere and I enjoyed having a leisurely conversation!

Recommended for dates, meetings, etc.
It was a wonderful shop ❤

This time we sneak into [Japanese food and obanzai Kitchen Hikaru]! ️

A locally popular restaurant in Matsuyama, Naha City! ️
The price is somewhere in the middle, cheaper than Japanese cuisine but more expensive than Izakaya.

Located in a calm area a little south of the downtown area ✨

Coin parking for light cars in front of the store! ️

There were about 10 counter seats and 4 table seats in the store with a clean wooden counter.

I think the restaurant started out focusing on obanzai, but now the menu seems to have expanded. ️
It's a casual Japanese restaurant + creative cuisine + obanzai, and the presentation and taste are amazing! ️

You can't go without making a reservation~✨

It's a clean restaurant where you can eat fresh ingredients from all over the country. All the staff have great customer service and I have nothing to say. The price is a little high for eating in Naha, but the location is good so I think it can be used for any occasion.
