Hateruma Kokusai dori Restaurant

Kokusai dori is located on the very lively Kokusai street. Some say it is the closest you come to experiencing a bit of Tokyo in Okinawa. If you wish to escape the seclusion and peacefulness of Okinawa for a night, this is the place to go.

The restaurant itself focuses on traditional Okinawan cuisine which bears many similarities to Chinese cuisine - unsurprisingly given the island's history of trade with mainland China.

Most nights Sanshin minstrels are on stage providing traditional dancing and singing shows. If a more quiet setting is preferred, private dining rooms are also on offer. The whole interior design has a beautiful antique feel, which stays true to its Okinawan roots.
