The Seragaki area of Okinawa is a place where you can enjoy an extraordinary resort atmosphere on a beach with blue seas and clear skies.

Here we've picked out six recommended dinner spots around Seragaki. We'll introduce you to restaurants where you can enjoy local ingredients to your heart's content, from seafood to meat dishes.

The original oven-baked pizza made with Okinawan ingredients is very popular.

For dinner and lunch, you can enjoy their signature oven-baked pizza and a choice of nine different antipasto (appetizers). The pizza dough is stretched after the order is placed, topped with ingredients, and baked, so you can enjoy it hot and fresh. The "Goya Salsiccia" pizza, made with local bitter melon, is unique to Okinawa. The bitterness of the sliced bitter melon and the saltiness of the salsiccia are an exquisite match, and go perfectly with craft beer.

This restaurant is renowned for its charcoal-grilled Okinawan pork, Yanbaru local chicken, and Okinawa beef. In addition to the charcoal-grilled dishes, they also have a selection of Okinawan home cooking and dishes that go well with alcohol, such as Goya Chanpuru, which is simmered in broth to reduce the distinctive bitterness. A must-order dish to finish off your meal is the popular lunch dish, "Okinawa Pork Thick-Sliced Sanmai Pork Charbroiled Soba." The generous amount of charcoal-grilled sanmai pork is so tender that it can be easily torn apart with chopsticks. The chewy homemade noodles and fragrant broth further enhance the flavor.

"Churashima Agu Shabu-shabu Hotpot (2 servings)" 5,400 yen
"Churashima Agu Shabu-shabu Hotpot (2 servings)" 5,400 yen

This is a shabu-shabu specialty restaurant where you can enjoy "Churashima Agu", which has a good balance of melting fat and tasty red meat. The signature dish, "Churashima Agu Shabu-shabu Hotpot", is a set of Agu pork, which is sliced thinly to bring out the flavor, and four kinds of island vegetables, including the leafy vegetable handama. We recommend first sprinkling spring onions into the pot and wrapping them with the shabu-shabu meat. One of the island vegetables, "Yunnan Hyakuyaku", also known as "land wakame", has a stickiness and texture similar to wakame when eaten alone.

A wide range of products are available, from Okinawan island vegetables to seafood.

The restaurant has a warm atmosphere reminiscent of an old Ryukyu house. In addition to table seating, there are also semi-private tatami rooms where you can relax.

The refreshing taste of the "Island Tofu and Sea Grape Salad" is perfect to enjoy with shabu-shabu. The "Grilled Gurukun with Garlic Butter," made with the prefecture's fish, Gurukun (winged frogfish), seasoned with butter, and the "Brown Sugar Rafute," simmered until tender, are excellent dishes to pair with alcohol. They go perfectly with Orion draft beer, as well as refreshing drinks such as shikuwasa sours.

The plate, which features a whole fish piled high, is very impactful. You can choose from two types of "Shima Teishoku," small and medium, depending on the type and size of the main fish.

Enjoy dishes made with the rare Abasaa (porcupine fish)

For sashimi, they offer tuna, galah (giant horse mackerel), and taman (sea huefuki) depending on the season and what's in stock that day. Another attraction is the opportunity to try dishes made with the porcupine fish known as abasaa in Okinawa. The miso stir-fry platter, made with the soft skin of abasaa, red clams, and the high-quality squid known as the Mongo squid, is a delightful dish with the different textures of each ingredient. The sweet, rich miso goes well with rice. Try the abasa soup, made with plump abasaa fish and mugwort.

They also offer a la carte dishes and side dishes using local ingredients, such as Goya Chanpuru, sea grapes, and homemade Arthur Kamaboko. If you want to enjoy your meal and drink together, we recommend their original "Fuji Lemon Sour," made with sliced lemons soaked in awamori. Its refreshing flavor, not too sweet, goes perfectly with charcoal-grilled dishes.
The shop only has counter seats, so you can enjoy friendly conversation with the staff and customers. The warm hospitality of the staff, including their casual consideration, is also a reason for the shop's popularity.

Be sure to try the "Kuruma shrimp from Kumejima," which has a savory aroma and rich flavor. As it is a small restaurant with only 12 seats, we recommend making a reservation in advance.
