Umichika Shokudo is located straight ahead from the entrance of the convention center. It is located one step to the side of Route 58 in front of the convention center.
The inside of the restaurant looks like this, with Okinawan folk songs playing in the background music, giving it the atmosphere of an Okinawan restaurant. The signatures of various famous people are displayed on the wall, giving the restaurant the atmosphere of a long-time local favorite.
Now, here is the menu of Umichika Shokudo. It’s easy to understand because it has pictures. As its reputation suggests, they have a wide variety of Okinawan soba and set meal menus. If you come with your family, you can enjoy a variety of menus.
This was my first visit to Umichika Shokudo, so I wanted to try the standard Okinawa soba first. Since I wanted to try the juicy one, I ordered the Okinawa soba set (large). I can’t wait to see how the Okinawa soba will taste!
This is Umichika Shokudo’s Okinawa soba set (large). It’s a special set that comes with juicy and kubuiri-chee. First, I took a sip of the soup. The rich umami taste and the refreshing and elegant taste spread to my mouth. The soup had a lot of umami, but it was not too thick and oily, and had an elegant taste. The soup is made from pork bones, chicken, vegetables, and bonito, and has a very elegant finish. The soup was well matched with the straight thin noodles with a strong waist. The juicy also had a classic nostalgic flavor, and it was quite a delicious Okinawa soba set.
On another day, I happened to pass by the restaurant, so I went back to Umichika Shokudo. There are so many different kinds of Okinawan soba and set menus that it’s hard to decide which one to choose, but I ordered the A-lunch, which is a standard lunch in Okinawa, and as an A-lunch lover, I can’t miss this menu.
This is the A-lunch of Umichika Shokudo. Fried shrimp, pork cutlet, fried white fish, etc. This is a hearty A-lunch. It’s hard to tell from the picture, but it’s quite hearty. The batter on the pork cutlet and fried shrimp was crispy and very tasty. I was quite hungry that day, but when I finished eating, I was quite full. Thank you for the meal.

If you want to know delicious restaurants of Soki soba or cuisine
Since you are coming to Okinawa traveling a lot, you would like to know the delicious restaurants of Soki soba and Okinawa cuisine. The book I refer to is "Pia Okinawa Food Book". Not only Okinawa soba and ramen, but also a variety of delicious Okinawa restaurants such as steak, Italian, Chinese, cafe etc are covered. There are also many pictures, and recent Okinawa delicious shops are introduced. "Okinawa shop 77 popular bloggers choose to pick" is an electronic book, but very interesting shops are introduced. A restaurant I do not even know about is included and it is helpful.
