🥩 Steakhouse 88 Motobu: Come for the Buffet, Not Just the Beef

We decided to try out Steakhouse 88 in Motobu during our Okinawa trip, drawn in by its reputation and convenient location. The restaurant is easy to find, and there’s ample parking, which is always a plus when traveling as a family. We ordered their steak sets, and while the beef was decent, it wasn’t anything to rave about—just average and didn’t quite meet the expectations we had from a place known for steaks. However, what really made our visit enjoyable was the buffet line that came with our meal. The buffet had a great variety of side dishes, salads, and local flavors. Everyone in the family found something they liked, and it felt like the buffet was the real star of the experience. The kids loved the curry rice and fried items, while we enjoyed the pickled vegetables and fresh salad options. It was a satisfying addition that made the meal feel more complete and definitely worth the visit. Service was friendly and efficient, and the dining environment was relaxed and welcoming, perfect for families. While the steak may not have wowed us, the overall experience—especially the buffet—made it a pleasant stop during our trip. #summervacay #steakhouse88motobu #okinawaeats #buffethighlight #motobufoodie #familyfriendlydining #okinawawithkids #okinawa #okinawatrip #japan #japantrip
