Situated between Okinawa City and Nago City, Shimajikan is located along Route 58 in Onna Village, making it the perfect place to take a break for a meal. The bright restaurant only has tatami seating or floor seating, with leg wells under the table to maximize comfort. The hospitable staff strives to make their customers feel as though they were visiting an Okinawan home, and do so with their locally sourced ingredients and fresh seafood from the Onna Sea. The bar boasts 48 different types of Okinawan spirits, so you'll be sure to find one that you enjoy. You can order from a prix fixe menu to sample everything, or order à la carte. Last order is at 10p, and pets are allowed on the terrace.
In Japan, "su-" is the sound that people make when they slurp their noodles. Far from being impolite, slurping noodles is a sign that you enjoy your meal, and at Sumanume you'll be sure to be slurping away. This local favorite is somewhat off the beaten path, but the soba brings tourists and locals in from near and far. The restaurant has traditional tatami mat floor seating, and can accommodate 50 guests. They are usually open till 4p, or until they run out of food. They are closed on Mondays.
