Okinawa's long-established restaurant

After a six year hiatus, Pizza House re-opened its doors in March 2017,
with an exterior designed following the style of its former structure at Minatogawa in Urasoe City.
The new establishment is a beautiful western-style building
with Spanish tiles and an atmosphere of a foreign land.
Pizza was very popular in America at that time in 1958,
and this is how Pizza House got its name.
Through our two years of research and studying,
we've developed our very own dry-aging techniques.
Our method allows the breakdown of protein by in microbial agents and
enzymes to change to amino acids to produce the Umami flavors,
and makes our aged meats tender and delicious.
At the American-style bar lounge,
you can enjoy your favorite cocktails and
wine in the chic 60s decor and comfortably toned down lighting.
The stylish bar seats are great to enjoy a nice drink alone, too.
The family dining area has a high ceiling with a sparkling chandelier and
is always full of smiling faces.
We invite you to a delightful time in a bright and stylish atmosphere.
Perfect for important business meetings and conferences,
as well as for private celebrations and special occasions with family and friends.
The party room can accommodate 30 guests seated, or 40 guests standing.
With our smiles and dedication to hospitality,
we aim to offer our guests a moving experience and a service you can trust.

PIZZA HOUSE, Walking Together with You
Our Story

In 1958, Pizza House opened its doors in the city of Koza, presently known as Okinawa City, located adjacent to the US Forces base. A year later, the restaurant relocated to Oyama, Ginowan City, where it garnered even more popularity among the American military personnel, civilian workers, and their families. As an American style international restaurant, people from around the world flocked to Pizza House and crowds lined up at the door daily to enjoy the food.

In 1988, the restaurant relocated once again, this time to the building that used to house the American Consulate General in Gusukuma, Urasoe City. The white exterior of the building gave the atmosphere of the Mediterranean, and the establishment offered authentic western dishes at reasonable prices in the dining area as well as in the party room on the second floor. We were blessed with the patronage of local families, businesses, and tourists, but the establishment closed in 2010 due to road expansion work.

We were closed for business for six years, but in March of 2017, we resumed our business at a new location in Minatogawa, Urasoe City. With Spanish roof tiles and an exterior following our former establishment in Gusukuma, our new location has new interior decorations in the family dining area and party room, and the bar lounge has the familiar chic atmosphere from our last location. With our smiles, passion, and dedicated spirit of hospitality, we are committed in our efforts to continue offering our services that you can trust.

SPECIAL ROAST BEEF

The fine taste of our roast beef has been passed down since our establishment, and once you try it, you'll see why people keep coming back.

Oven-Baked at Low Temperature

Dry Aging Beef & Pork

After spending two years researching and studying the methods,
we're proud to offer you our aged beef and pork.
We take great care in controlling the environment of the process, from the temperature, humidity, and even the air flow. "Aging" the meat allows microbial agents and enzymes to breakdown the protein to change to amino acids to produce the Umami flavors. This also makes the meat tender, promoting easier digestion.
Our dry-aged meats are prepared in our exclusive refrigerators and with our very own techniques.
