Ichitaka — Restaurant in Taketomi

We drove around the western half of the island trying to find somewhere to eat but kept being turned away due to being full or sold out or closing soon. Ichitaka was by far the biggest and most popular place open that we saw. Unfortunately there was a long wait time but they were able to offer us takeout instead so v thankful we managed to get a meal! Chicken karaage, champuru and sashimi salad with sea grapes were all tasty! I saw a sign they also offer shuttle service to your accommodation which is super thoughtful.

An incredible experience! We got there as soon as they opened and thankfully seated us without a reservation. The staff were very friendly. There was even one lady who spoke English! The food was excellent. We were served a starter: a local fried fish. Then we had umibudo, wild boar sashimi, rafute, fish sashimi, stir fried wild boar with jungle vegetables, and sweet potato cheesecake. Everything was delicious. We loved the atmosphere too with an eclectic Christmas decor for the holidays. Thank you for the amazing time! Highly...

Loved it all - We came back 3 days in a row 😊

Food is delicious and made with local products. Highly recommend the pineapple juice and the local diamond squid sashimi.

Lovely service with a waitress that spoke great English and was super attentive.

There is an English menu, where all local specialties and products are explained to you - So thoughtful! And they also offer a shuttle bus service to bring you home after food, twice an hour.

Nice interior, warm and with some Okinawa music.
