Yoshi Hachi Sushi Bar | Okinawa, Japan

5 Jul

Just around the corner from my house is one of my favorite places to eat on Okinawa, it is Yoshihachi. Yoshihachi’s Sushi Bar offers a very friendly and comfortable atmosphere for those looking to try something new. yoshihachi 3 copy medium.thumbnail Yoshi Hachi Sushi Bar | Okinawa, Japan Whenever someone visits, I make sure to take them to Yoshihachi’s to experience an endless amount of menu items.

After entering Yoshihachi’s you will immediately notice pictures of all the famous people that owner Yoshi Maekawa has met throughout his travels. Yoshihachi is a very popular sushi bar around the area, so it very common to see the entire restaurant full of customers on any given day. No worries, the wait is never that long and is always rewarded by a truly great dining experience.

If seafood is not quite your thing, Yoshihachi offers over 200 menu items. yoshi sushi.thumbnail Yoshi Hachi Sushi Bar | Okinawa, Japan Almost any customer can find something they will enjoy. My favorites are the Rainbow roll and the Yoshi roll. Their prices are very reasonable and range from ¥250 for a small dish to over ¥1500 for  sets.

      When I was in Okinawa for training back in 2005, I had a day of liberty before we were to go home. The first thing I did was to get in a taxi and ask the driver for ‘good sushi’. He took me straight here. Now that I’m stationed in Okinawa, I plan on coming back here.

      FWIW, I prefer links to google maps than directions. It’s just easier.

      My husband was stationed in Okinawa for five years while I was state-side getting a degree. During the few times I was lucky enough to visit him we always made sure to go here! Yoshi Hachi sushi is one of my favorite places to eat ever and I can’t wait to get back to Okinawa.

      I lived here from 1997-2000. I lived and loved for Yoshi’s. I have many many many pictures of my dear love of my favorite restaurant in the world Yoshi hachi’s. I have his business card in my wallet. I went out in a Typhoon for this food!! When I win the lottery I will charter a jet and pick up my friends to go back to Yoshi’s. I am applying for jobs back to Japan to get back to Yoshi’s. If anyone wants to know any of the best places to eat ANYTHING in this US and then ALL the best places to eat in Okinawa contact me or take me. I will help you find your way.
