Fish taverna sambo — Restaurant in Miyakojima

Loved this cozy little Italian tavern in MMY the decor was old school style but super warm and cozy

They have daily menu written o the boards, whatever is fresh and available!

Staff knew only a bit EN but was enough to order food, or what we did was search and point out what you see on the Google photos. They either have it or a variation of it due to ingredients. regardless they were really friendly and try to be as helpful as they can.

Recommend: Pasta: we ordered this pasta, looks very light but it was SUPER tasty. smoked yellow fin tune: also very flavorful Carpaccio: its like a Italian version of sashimi. Still flavors are very interesting with the matched sauces or accompanying ingredients.

Not Bad: Aqua Pazza : a variety of fishes/seafood that is grilled/cooked then with sauce. It is nice to eat seasonal seafood but the taste is a bit on the light side for me. If it was more creamy/rich we would've enjoyed more.

we took a 3 glass wine set which they served some interesting organic and local...

Wonderful experience, recommend by our hotel Rescape. With our very limited Japanese, and the sous chefs much better English and a translation app the communication was not an issue, at least for us. (The night we visited, off season, it was quite and the sous chef took orders as well as did his bit in the kitchen, whilst head chef prepared the dishes and took over plating as needed) It’s a relaxed vibe place with exceptional food made and prepared to a high standard and great flavours. The magic is that the cooks also catch the produce that they serve. Spear fishing the night before. Amazing how they have the energy to cook before they go out fishing late at night! Bonus is the fabulous choice of wines and organic wines on offer. We love Sake, but can’t beat a great wine...

nice Italian restaurant. today's Carpaccio was amazingly delicious! I definitely will go again. good service. there were parking lots across the street. you should make a reservation because the table is limited due...
