Luckily for us, we had our friends arrive there before 4 pm for 4:30 pm opening and we’re ready to put us in the list. By the time we arrived, our group (6 people) was the third in line. Once they started seating, our group was called promptly. Since there isn’t a table (space) to accommodate us altogether, we had a table of four, plus two seats at the counter. We ordered our drinks first and food, and we were served promptly. My friend follows Mayumi san who was available to chat with us. The dishes we ordered were carefully prepared and tasted good. I would recommend to get there early on; otherwise, you probably wouldn’t be able to get in. There is a plenty of parking spot available.

We came 10 minutes before the store opened and there were no lines at all. After we got seated about 10+ minutes it got all packed right away.
We knew about this restaurant under my son’s recommendation. So we ordered dishes like we are in izakaya not soba or ramen place. Totally 7 dishes: 3 kinds of sashimi , white corn tempura, avocado salad,grilled gizzard hot skillet, Okinawa bitter melon salad, fried chicken wings and grilled cheese with yamaimo.
Every dish was tasty. Of course sashimi was really fresh like you ordered in Japan. But what I really liked about were white corn tempura because I don’t see it a lot. Avocado salad with Okinawa mozuku seaweed was amazingly delicious. Ingredients were very fresh. Lastly grilled cheese with yamaimo was also my first time trying this dish and it’s amazing delicious.
The only dish I least cared about was bitter melon salad. I personally love bitter melon so I was hoping to taste its flavor again but the flavor didn’t stand out.
The decorations absolutely made you feel like you were in Okinawa. Staff were amazingly friendly. Since we ordered a lot of food and table was tiny and yet they timed it perfectly not to make it crammed.
I know that google maps doesn’t have 6 stars but Habuya definitely on my 6 stars list.

Small restaurant that is open only for dinner service.
You MUST use Yelp waitlist since there are no reservations available.
Excellent service and outstanding food.
Highly recommended: I love a clam soup and they add ramen to this dish, okay for sharing.
Peanut butter tofu is served chilled and has a much firmer yet soft chewy texture. A lovely little dish.
Sashimi trio served with freshly grated wasabi is a perfect way to enjoy raw fish and cool down.
Would come again for special occasions, because we usually end up trying as many dishes as as possible to get a more authentic taste.

This place is run by real Japanese chefs and staff, and it’s often filled with Japanese customers — offering an authentic Okinawan vibe and cuisine. I absolutely love the interior and atmosphere. You can tell they put a lot of thought into the little decorative touches and even the staff’s fashion sense. The background music? All Okinawan songs. The food is not only amazing but also surprisingly affordable. I honestly can’t believe I hadn’t discovered this place sooner. It feels like I’ve missed out on half my life.

I saw this spot on Instagram, and since I was in the area, I knew we had to check it out. If you know me, then you know I’m not a fan of waiting—actually, waiting really irritates me. We probably should’ve gone when they opened at 4:30 PM, but that felt too early for dinner. The wait wasn’t too bad—about 30 minutes—and yes, it was worth the hype.
The owner was very sweet, and when you come in, they try their best to accommodate you. We definitely didn’t feel rushed. The atmosphere was a Japanese eclectic vibe. If I lived nearby, this would be my go-to spot!
We ordered a bunch of fried foods—Kara Hama, Ika, Corn Tempura, and Chicken Karaage—which were all damn good. I should’ve tried more dishes because the sashimi was amazing, the beer was ice cold, and the staff was fantastic. I highly recommend this spot—it was so dope, and I can’t wait to come back!

Habuya is a dream come true if you’re looking for some Okinawan culture and food that you remember from either visiting or being stationed on the island in the military.
You need to know upfront to even get in here you must sign up on a wait list on Yelp. They will text you when your table is ready. Don’t be that dude who keeps opening the door asking if your table is ready. You get two hours at your table and you have to go.
The owner is such a sweetheart and makes everyone feel welcome. She is an amazing artist also and some of her art is on display in the Izakaya.
The Izakaya (pub) is decorated just like a family owned little Izakaya back in Okinawa. Be sure to check out the bathroom as it’s like a museum of Okinawa culture and adverts. I probably spent ten minutes in there just taking it all in and reading everything.
The foods are Okinawan and Okinawan cali fusions of blue zones foods and great pub fare.
We tried a little of everything and were amazed at how good everything was. You can get fresh Orion beer in frozen mugs and there is a great selection of awamori too.
What a hidden gem. I will come back here again and again.

A refined hole-in-the-wall Japanese izakaya offering unique Okinawan dishes and alcoholic beverages. The setting is intimate and the walls are plastered with menu items and cultural artifacts that are reminiscent of an authentic izakaya abroad. The food was fantastic, the service is great, and the lady at the counter (who I presume to be the owner) is an amazing host.
I’m not usually a fan of bitter melon, but their goya kimchi appetizer was incredibly delicious and complemented the other dishes well.

A 10/10 dining experience! Their menu is extensive and has a good variety of small bites and entrees. I recommend the chicken wings, sea bass, and ton ton ton (stewed pork rib, feet, and belly). I also enjoyed the “pink beer”—a shiso leaf beer made in house! I noticed a lot of people trying their clam ramen. I’ll have to give it a try next time!

OKINAWA, JAPAN (via Eat the World Los Angeles) – If it happens to be your first time opening the door to Habuya, tucked into a corner of a Tustin plaza anchored by a Stater Bros., you will immediately chastise yourself for not becoming a regular much sooner. Open since late 2010, the small Okinawan izakaya is obviously popular with a regular following, the restaurant is normally full. Even before anything hits your table, smiles across your face will be unavoidable. It is an absolute joy just to be here, and the friendly staff only make it better. They seem to be doing one hundred things at all times but also treat each customer as if they were a longtime regular that was there from the very beginning.

The atmosphere inside was cozy with vintage memorabilia and menus handing along the walls. $160 for 4 pp, gratuity included. Since it’s an Izakaya, we got to try many dishes. Standout dishes : hamachi sashimi, yuzu ramen was different and refreshing, white corn tempura. The octopus salad was good but a bit on the salty side. Okinawan soba – noodles were nicely cooked, pork ribs could be a tad more softer, it wasn’t falling off the bone. Other dishes were standard – chicken wings, grilled mackerel, pig ears. Okinawan lime beer was very light, didn’t taste like any alcohol was in it. So if you’re a light weight, it might be for you. Service was great. Staffs were nice and attentive. This place usually quite packed on Fridays and weekends, reservations is recommended. We made reservations the day before. The party has 1.5 hours to dine. Overall, we enjoyed our time there.
