Koryōri Shirō

Ōsumi Islands


Head to this friendly little izakaya (Japanese pub-eatery) in Nishi-no-Omote to sample tasty dishes such as the sashimi teishoku (sashimi set; ¥1200). There are plants out the front and blue-and-white noren (doorway curtains). It's along the main road east of the post office.
