sakurazaka — Restaurant in Naha

We had read the reviews and wanted to try this buffet, but the first time we went we were unable to get in because we did not have a reservation. We rebooked for the next week and made a reservation.

So... Pro tip: book a reservation to be safe, you cannot do same day, you have to do it the day before.

The price I feel was fantastic for what you receive. It served mostly tapas style for the buffet with some family style. I tried almost all of the food, but it was difficult because there were so many options. I did miss out on a few items because of that.

Every day of the week has a different meal type, Japanese is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday is meat day, Thursday. Friday is seafood, and I'm not sure what the weekend is. So for example, if you aren't into seafood make sure you don't go for that day. The buffet was a mix of Japanese and Western food items.

The servers were very quick to clear your plates so that you had a clean table. They didn't really speak with us, but we also didn't speak Japanese.

There are some drinks you can order like alcohol, but it comes with coffee, tea, hot water, iced tea, iced coffee, a few juices, an espresso machine that does a number of drinks, as well as there were three smoothie options.

You pay up at the front at the end of the meal. There was a tip on the bill, place that you could write it in, but when we went to pay we did not end up tipping because the person who took our payment just charged us the amount with no tip option.

I would happily go back. The whole package is great, price, quality, etc.

Pro tip 2: When we found out we got 3 hours for parking, we ate for about 1 and 1/2 and then spent the other hour and a half walking around. So you can kind of plan your day that way. We did end up parking somewhere else the last time we had come and it isn't necessarily that expensive, but you might as well take advantage of this...

Service is awesome. There are employees in the lobby to greet the customers, they even open and close the door for you. Little gestures like these make guests feel valued. The parking lot is limited and very narrow, we went on a weekday so we're lucky to get one easily. They offer different menu everyday, we went on a Thursday because we wanted to try their seafood buffet and we are so goad we did. My boys love seafood and we all enjoyed the unlimited jumbo shrimp tempura, shrimp and crab cocktail, fish fillet, roasted duck, and many more. The desserts are alright. Drinks are amazing! They have fresh fruit yogurts. This is the best buffet we've ever been in the island. We are definitely...

Good selection of both Western and Japanese cuisines for breakfast, with a decent variety of hot and cold dishes. Whilst none of the dishes are cooked to order like other hotel breakfast buffets, everything tastes fresh with plenty of people to cycle through the dishes. On offer for breakfast is a western station (bacon, eggs, potatoes), Japanese station (curry rice, yaki soba, grilled fish), cold station (cured meats, smoked salmon, cheese), Carbs (pastries, toast, cereals) and salad bar. Well worth the price of admission for breakfast at ¥2000 plus...
