About 14 minutes by car from Naha Airport. This sembello store is located a short walk from “Shintenchi Ichiba Hondori” (main street of Shintenchi Market), an 11-minute walk from Miebashi Station on the Yui Rail. There is a famous Sembello restaurant nearby that is very crowded, but this one is not so crowded, so it may be called a “hole-in-the-wall” restaurant!
Point 1: Behind the Makishi Public Market! What is the location of Kawakami Fresh Fish?

Kawakami Fresh Fish is an izakaya located in Matsuo, Naha City. There are many izakayas in Naha, but this one is said by many izakayas to be the most cost-effective izakayas in Naha. It was originally a fish shop.
Originally a fish shop, it became an izakaya because regulars “went home after catching a lot of fish.
The restaurant has “moved” to this location and has been remodeled, making it easier for women to come in alone.

I see that counter seats are facing the wall, so it seems easy to enter the restaurant even for a single woman.
Access is about 14 minutes by car from Naha Airport via Umisora Tunnel.
If not by car, take the Yui Rail and get off at Miebashi Station. It is an 11-minute walk to the restaurant.
The location is a little off the main street of Shintenchi Market, behind Makishi Public Market, but it may be difficult to find because the location is a little complicated. There is a “No. 3 store” along the street, so it is easier to find.
There is no parking lot, so you will have to park in a nearby coin-operated parking lot.
Point 2: The contents of “Kawakami Fresh Fish” sembelo are amazing!

Kawakami Fresh Fish” has a non-sembero menu, but most people seem to drink at the restaurant.
The menu includes a set of “3 drinks + sashimi + 1 recommended dish of the day”.

Sashimi is served as a “tsukidashi” and comes with more than a dozen slices of thick Okinawa fish sashimi. The sashimi is thick, fresh, and very tasty!
The sashimi is thick, fresh, and very tasty! It would be no badge of honor to charge 1,000 yen for the sashimi alone.
The most popular “dish of the day” that comes with Senbero and is worth 300 yen a la carte is “mozuku-zu vinegar” and “tebichi”. It seems that Okinawan-like dishes are popular.
In addition to the izakaya menu, the restaurant also serves fried white meat and chicken cutlet, so it is easy to go there with children.
Point 3: “Kawakami Fresh Fish” Sembello drinks can also be shared!

The Sembello at Kawakami Fresh Fish comes with three drinks.
Not only at Senbero, but many restaurants also ask customers to take “one drink per person,” but you can “share” the three drinks.
This is very nice because it allows parents to share drinks with alcohol and children who come with them can share drinks with soft drinks, etc. We thank the owner of the restaurant for making this rule.
Kawakami Fresh Fish” in Matsuo, Naha City, is probably the most cosmopolitan restaurant in Japan. It is rumored to be the most cost-effective in Japan. It is an outrageous price breakdown: 12 slices of prefectural fish sashimi + 3 drinks + choice of 1 dish for 1,000 yen. Not only is it cheap, it is delicious! What more is there to say? Please come and try it for yourself.
