About this spot

A beloved local okinawa soba restaurant located near Miyagi Kaigan in Chatan Town that has earned the admiration of customers for many years. Their signature Hamaya Soba features generous portions of slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth cartilage-rich soki pork. The clear, delicate broth infused with bonito dashi pairs wonderfully with soft noodles, and the tender soki that crumbles apart at the touch of chopsticks has an irresistible sweet and savory flavor. It's not uncommon to see lines of both local customers and tourists during lunch hours, and the casual, unaffected atmosphere of an Okinawan eatery is part of the charm. It's best to arrive after working up an appetite from your seaside walk.

Tips

This popular restaurant is always crowded, so arriving before the lunch rush is your best bet to avoid long waits. The parking lot has limited spaces, so be prepared to wait a bit during peak hours. After your meal, it's pleasant to take a short walk along nearby Miyagi Kaigan.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour. Arriving before noon, before the lines get long, will minimize your wait time.
