Tamatebako — Restaurant in Naha

I felt scammed after going here. Had a bad experience because they made a big mistake and didn’t tell us that if you don’t order a drink they’ll charge you 300yen per person, even if you order food.

To be clear the food was really nice, so I want to like the place, but it’s kind of unacceptable to charge people like that without telling them about it. They showed us after that it’s written on a page in the menu, but they didn’t tell us anything about it before hand. And the english explanation on the menu is unclear, so I wouldn’t have known even if I saw it.

They also charged my friend 110yen extra for having her drink in sparkling water without telling her. They did nothing to compensate for their mistake. For example offering us to order drinks with 300 yen off could have been a nice gesture.

It’s not a lot of money, but the feeling of being fooled to pay more is enough to not want to come back or recommend...

One of the tastiest meals I've had in okinawa. The food was so good here. Eating alone, I tried to get as much as I could.

Tofu and seaweed grape salad. The first taste of seaweed grape and it was spectacular. It would be a good substitute for fish eggs. Outstanding!

Fried tofu, if you don't know the tofu hits different in Okinawa. Just as good as it is in Taiwan. They are both close to one another. Wonder if the climate has anything to do with it.

Tofu dumplings was a good starting appetizer. But the laksa curry noodle was the main attraction. I loved the thick chewy noodles. Lemongrass flavor is light. I slurped the whole bowl down.

The owner is a one man show. Even with 4 groups in the restaurant. I was getting each dish very timely and efficiently. Ive been to a few vegan restaurants in Okinawa during my week long stay but this is best one i went to. Highly recommend...

The food was so amazing that we went back the next day to try the rest of the menu 😄. It's so wonderful to have a vegan / vegetarian restaurant that allows you to try all the local fare. I absolutely recommend all of the starters (yes we had them all) and the Laksa and Soba.

The staff are super friendly and the place has a laid back vibe. We enjoyed the awamori cocktail, craft beers and sake of the day.

This is the kind of vegan / veggie restaurant I'd recommend to non-vegetarians too. The food was so delicious everyone...
