Experts in Okinawa Ingredients
OkuMasa opened in June 2023.
The owner-chef is Masataka Arasaki, known for the reservation-only restaurant ShabuMasa.
ShabuMasa overturns the traditional shabu-shabu concept and mainly serves fresh island vegetables grown in Yanbaru. It has become popular among Okinawa repeat customers and shabu-shabu fans as a unique restaurant where you can enjoy seasonal island vegetables with special Agu.
At this new restaurant, we honor Okinawa’s traditions and food culture while striving to offer fresh, honest flavors rooted in the local community. We also aim to create new ways to enjoy island ingredients that go beyond what is possible with shabu-shabu alone.
Our foundation is the ingredients grown with care by the people of this island and the local culture they love. The islanders’ components, attitudes, and thoughts toward their work are taken into account, and the elements are taken seriously and reflected in the cuisine.
For both locals and guests from around the world, we spare no effort in our craftsmanship. With an artisan’s dedication and a warm, homely touch, we aim to deliver dishes that satisfy not just the appetite but also the heart.
