Travel to Okinawa and Information on Hotels, Restaurants, and Sightseeing by Couple

Kaisendon served in a Ryukyuan traditional house in Okinawa is a rare experience. For those who want to enjoy luxurious seafood dishes with a spectacular view of Kouri Island, a popular spot on the main island of Okinawa. Nishikiya is a restaurant where you can fully enjoy fresh sea urchin and sashimi. The warm interior of an old Ryukyuan-style house and the view of the Kouri Bridge from the terrace on the second floor are also points of interest. It is a bit expensive, but recommended for those who want to eat a full meal of large seafood. It is one of the few restaurants on Kouri Island that is open relatively late at night.

Exterior and interior of Nishikiya Restaurant

After crossing the Kouri Bridge and proceeding through the island, you will see "Nishikiya Restaurant". A concrete building and a traditional Okinawan house style building stand side by side, and a large Shisa (Okinawan Okinawan lion) welcomes visitors at the entrance.

This shisa should also be kept as a photo spot.

The restaurant has a dining room-style main building on the first floor and terrace seating, where you place your order first.

The second floor of the main building has a terrace with a view of the Kouri Bridge.

Next to the restaurant is an old house that evokes the lifestyle of old Okinawa, and if the restaurant is not full, you can dine at your favorite table.

menu

There are always more than 10 items on the menu. The menu includes sea urchin, eel, sashimi, and seafood bowls with sea grapes. Depending on the item, the menu ranges from 1,000 yen to over 5,000 yen.

Sea urchin sashimi platter (6,300 yen)

The Super Special Sea Urchin Sashimi Platter comes with rice, soup, side dish, pickles, and sweet. The sparkling sea urchin and sashimi are truly works of art.

The sea urchin has almost no distinctive smell of sea urchin, and its sweetness is outstanding. Even those who do not like sea urchin will enjoy this dish!

Sea urchin and eel bowl (4,800 yen)

The No. 1 most popular bowl of rice topped with sea urchin and eel. A luxurious combination of fluffy eel, sea urchin, and seafood.

Thickly cut fresh sashimi is gorgeously arranged on a bed of rice, providing a visually satisfying experience.

Sea urchin bowl deluxe (5,000 yen)

A deluxe sea urchin bowl with a good portion of seafood. Too much sashimi hides the sea urchin, but there is a lot of it under the sashimi! You can enjoy the sweetness of the sea and the flavor of the sea with the sea urchin packed on top of the rice. Once you try it, you will be captivated by its rich flavor.

Review of Okibara

The charm of Nishikiya is not only in the food,Please enjoy the warm, or rather hot, hospitality of our staff!When you get off at the parking lot, the staff welcomes you very cheerfully. They also saw us off warmly when we left.

It is very rare to experience a bowl of rice topped with seafood served in an old Ryukyuan-style house. The view of the Kouri Bridge from the terrace on the second floor is also very stylish.

It is seafood cuisine, and if you look around the country, you will find many good restaurants. However,Nishikiya Restaurant is recommended for those who want to taste fresh seafood dishes in Okinawa.The restaurant is located in the heart of Okinawa. Enjoy not only the quality of their food, but also the thoughtful service of the staff, the tasteful Okinawan décor, and the spectacular location. If you have tasted many trips to Okinawa, you should definitely know about it!
