Sushi restaurant • 1-chōme-5-19 Tsuji, Naha, Okinawa 900-0037, Japan
Okinawa is famous for seafood cuisine, but you can also enjoy authentic Edo-style sushi. 'Sushi Shop Yoshino' in Naha City is a well-known restaurant where the master honed his skills in Tokyo. We introduce a restaurant where you can taste exquisite sushi that rivals those from the mainland while being in Okinawa.
Yoshino's menu is omakase only. Starting with seasonal small dishes, enjoy about eight dishes of one-item cuisines, then nigiri finally begins. The sushi crafted with fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned rice, along with the master's undeniable skills, are visually stunning and melt-in-the-mouth delightful.
While preserving the tradition of Edo-style sushi, there are times when creative dishes incorporate unique Okinawan fish. Sushi creations such as 'Akajin Miibai,' made with local flavors and Edo-style techniques, are delicacies you can only experience at Yoshino.
In a calm space with only counter seating, enjoy a leisurely meal while being warmly welcomed by the master and the hostess, which is one of its attractions. For those who love drinking, the fact you can smoke may also be a pleasant point.
The restaurant is highly rated in reviews and has many repeat customers. Since reservations are necessary, it is recommended to secure a spot ahead of time when traveling to Okinawa. Fresh tuna is available from April to May, so aim for seasonal flavors.
Why not spend an adult evening at 'Sushi Shop Yoshino,' different from the daytime spent gazing at the blue sea of Okinawa? Experience unforgettable taste memories where authentic Edo-style sushi and the charm of Okinawa meld together.
