Tamaya Toyosaki Branch
An Okinawa Soba Lunch Loved by Locals
"Tamaya" is a popular Okinawa soba specialty restaurant in the area. The smooth, thin noodles paired with the slowly simmered broth are absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the classic Sanmai-niku Soba and the Soki Soba with pork cartilage. It also features a spacious tatami room, making it perfect for families. Personally, I love the "parapara" style—it’s light and juicy!
