About 44 minutes by car from Naha Airport. It is an old-fashioned Western-style restaurant in Awase, Okinawa City, central Okinawa Island. From the tasteful exterior, one gets the feeling that something delicious is about to be served.
Point 1: Tourists are unlikely to be there! What is the location of Comté Chez Soie?
Com Chez Soie” is a Western-style restaurant that has been in business for 40 years in Awase, in the central part of the main island of Okinawa, and has been a favorite of the locals for many years.
Even though it is located in Okinawa City, it is surrounded by residential areas and an athletic park. It is certainly not a place for tourists.
However, if you want to see a Western-style restaurant that has been a favorite of the locals for 40 years, it is worth the drive or the bus ride.
The restaurant has been in business for 40 years, so you can be sure of the quality of the food! And the prices are so reasonable that you will feel like you have stepped back in time to the Showa period.
The restaurant is located in Awase, Okinawa City, about 44 minutes from Naha Airport via Okinawa Expressway.
By bus, take the “Limousine Bus Naha Airport Line” to Kishaba in Kitanakagusuku Village, then take Okinawa Bus No. 52 from in front of the Kitanakagusuku Village Office (5 minutes walk) and get off at the “Hiyane” stop. It is a 21-minute walk to the restaurant.
The restaurant was located along a residential street in Awase.
The exterior is an old-fashioned brick structure, like a French restaurant. The sign on the wall that reads “Business trip buffet for 1,000 yen” caught my attention.
Once inside, a couple who have been in the business for about 10 years runs the restaurant. The friendly and soothing way they greet their customers is very relaxing.
Point 2: How can it be so cheap? Introducing the popular menu at Com Chez Soie!
Com Chez Soie” offers a wide variety of Western-style dishes.
The most popular is the special lunch (750 yen). It comes with rice, a hamburger steak, a mince cutlet, fried shrimp, an egg omelet, and salad for this price!
It is said that the price is not commensurate with the taste and quantity, and many people are concerned about the management, but many people order this menu.
The price may be revised after Corona, but it will be this price at least until 2023.
The price used to be 650 yen, 100 yen lower than before, but the dishes brought to the restaurant with a “sorry for raising the price” were larger in volume than before. This kind of human touch makes us happy.
As a traditional Western-style restaurant, you would expect it to be cash-only, but it is amazing that they also accept cashless payments such as Melpay!
Point 3: “Com Chez Soie” has a full range of pasta dishes and course meals!
Com Chez Soie” has a tremendous menu.
One of them is a chicken course meal, which includes an appetizer, pasta, a main course of chicken stew, garlic toast, and coffee for the price of 1,300 yen! This is price destruction. The pricing is about the same as in the 1950s.
The pasta selection is also uncanny: peperoncino, tomato sauce, seafood, bolognese, carbonara, gnocchi, and lasagna gratin are also available. Prices start at 1,100 yen for a large seafood entree, but the rest of the dishes are priced at a reasonable 700 yen and up.
In addition, as in Okinawa, there are Gurukun dishes, sweet and sour sauce, Meunier, tomato sauce, and salmon and white fish dishes, all priced at 750 yen with rice and soup. Fried shrimp is 50 yen higher at 800 yen.
Currently, the restaurant has only four seats, and some people leave without being able to sit down. 40 years in business means that he must be quite old, but we hope he continues to take good care of himself for a long time.
Com Chez Soie is a long-established Western-style restaurant in Awase, Okinawa City, where taste, volume, and price do not go together, including the special lunch for 1,300 yen. Please come and visit.
