OkuMasa was introduced on Okinawa Prefecture’s official SNS as “a restaurant born from a chef’s passion for celebrating island ingredients and Okinawan food culture.”

At OkuMasa, in addition to a special shabu-shabu course using fresh island vegetables from Yanbaru and native Ryukyu Agu pork, we offer Western-style courses featuring ingredients that couldn’t be fully showcased in shabu-shabu—such as island vegetables, meats, and local seafood—sharing new ways to enjoy island produce every day.
We also collaborate with local welfare services, sharing the value and joy of working together to create a virtuous cycle of growth and development that goes beyond mere sustainability, building a truly beautiful community.
Celebrating Island Ingredients and Okinawan Food Culture: A Restaurant Born from a Local Chef’s Passion👨🍳
Tucked away in Okinawa’s northern Yanbaru area, where much of the natural beauty remains untouched, you will discover unique island ingredients nurtured by a rich ecosystem. In this region, the vibrant biodiversity creates fertile soil, yielding an abundance of nutrient-rich island vegetables🥦🥬🥕
In the heart of Yanbaru lies OkuMasa, a small restaurant where these local ingredients take center stage. The chef, an expert in island cuisine, has a deep passion for showcasing the flavors of Yanbaru. While Agu Shabu-Shabu—a local hot pot dish typically featuring thinly sliced pork—is well-known throughout Okinawa, OkuMasa highlights fresh, local vegetables harvested right in Yanbaru.
Beyond traditional shabu-shabu, the restaurant offers a creative fusion of Okinawan cuisine with Italian influences, reimagining island ingredients in exciting new ways. Get to savor a fresh, innovative take on Okinawan flavors that you won’t find anywhere else, all crafted with the chef’s commitment to preserving the region’s culinary traditions and heritage😋
