A must-visit for innovative Okinawa soba, this restaurant is run by a passionate owner who has traveled across Okinawa’s main island and remote islands, sampling countless bowls of soba before crafting his own unique creations.

The signature dish, "BUNBUN Soba", features a generous topping of four types of pork and is the restaurant’s most popular item. Other creative offerings include soba loaded with cilantro and mazesoba-style Okinawa soba, all showcasing bold originality.
Diners can choose from various types of noodles, such as fresh noodles or squid ink-infused noodles, and further personalize their bowl with an array of toppings like seasoned eggs and sanmai niku (braised pork belly).

Despite the innovative toppings, the broth remains traditional, carefully prepared by simmering pork bones for 8 hours and blending them with a rich first-dashi of bonito flakes and kombu. The result is a clean, flavorful soup that can be enjoyed to the last drop.
For an extra kick, guests can adjust flavors with tabletop condiments like Koregusu (Okinawan chili-infused awamori), yuzu kosho, and garam masala, allowing them to customize their perfect bowl of Okinawa soba.
