Burrata

Nestled in the heart of Okinawa, Burrata offers a unique dining experience that combines the best of Italian and Japanese culinary traditions. Known for its exquisite pizzas, Burrata uses a wood-fired oven imported from Italy to create masterpieces like the Pizza Margherita, topped with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil, and the Pizza Bianca, which features an indulgent blend of eight cheeses drizzled with honey. The menu also includes delightful pasta dishes such as Aglio e Olio Pasta and the Island Mozuku Aglio e Olio, which incorporates local Okinawan mozuku seaweed. The restaurant is located at 3-chōme-9-11 Sonoda, a charming area in Okinawa, making it a convenient spot for both locals and visitors. Despite its small size, with only nine seats available, the stylish interior and Italian background music create an intimate and cozy atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed meal or a special outing. Owned by the talented duo Keiichiro Makabe and his wife, Yukari, Burrata has been delighting patrons since its opening in October 2016. The restaurant's dedication to quality and innovation has earned it a spot in the 'Top 100 Pizzas' on Tabelog in both 2023 and 2025. Due to its limited seating, reservations are recommended. However, guests can also enjoy Burrata's menu at the adjacent Bistro Sakaba Bourbon when the restaurant is fully booked. Parking can be a challenge, but nearby coin parking options are available. Whether you're a pizza aficionado or simply looking to enjoy a unique fusion of flavors, Burrata promises a memorable dining experience.
