We were fortunate enough to eat here a few nights ago (June 2019) and we had a truly amazing meal. Their authentic and thoughtful Okinawan cuisine was second-to-none (the staff recommendations were phenomenal), the awamori was delicious, the space was clean, quiet, and nice and the service was excellent. We were fortunate enough to make friends with the owner, Teiko, in the process and she is an amazing woman. I learned more about Okinawa at that dinner than in a week touring around historical sites on the island -- it was truly a special night that my wife and I will always remember. It was a great meal served by great people in a centrally located area in Naha City -- don't miss it.
