I came here for dinner after the owner of the hotel I was staying recommended it to me. The place was empty when I arrived and I had a very nice dinner in this restaurant that felt like home. The owner spoke some English and was very welcoming and friendly. I had Ika mentaiko, peanut tofu, Okinawan pancake and some kind of fried white fish. Everything was very tasty and I would absolutely come back. Arigatogozaimasu!

Absolutely amazing food. You must try the chili tofu and fried rice with noodles (Kobe style). Very small place, so please refrain from being too loud.

Had an amazing meal here. The food was cooked fresh, the tempura was crisp and the beef hamburger was tender. The set meal came with some delicious side dishes too. Also, the Orion beer was ice cold. Would come back here in an instant.

Chuto Hanpa de N’ai. !! Excellent, super small restaurant but incredibly good. On your way beware of taking a slight right at the fork and go until the end. The menu is great and the omelette was one of the best I had in Japan. The chicken and Tempura was also very good. I strongly recommend!!!

Just finished eating lunch here with my friend and we cannot stop raving about it. We shared the Shiuga-yaki (Ginger Grilled Pork) ¥800 and the Sutamina-Don (The Great Stamina Bowl with Grilled Pork) ¥750. The quality and price are exceptional, especially when you take into account that this price is a set menu. Included with the main is a salad, miso soup and a drink of your choice. The portions are generous, the taste is superb and the seaside themed setting is lovely.
