What you get

What you will get when you work here

1

You will learn language through daily customer service

53%Percentage of restaurant reviews written in foreign languages

Yakiniku Motobu Farm is visited by many tourists from Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Europe and America, etc. Of the 561 reviews with comments, 53% were in foreign languages, with Traditional Chinese (Taiwan/Hong Kong) being the most common. In the

hall, you will be asked to take orders, explain the different parts of the meat, how to grill it, and recommend tourist spots. We repeat these interactions every day. At first, it's okay to say "Hello" and point. If you memorize frequently used phrases, they will come out naturally as you continue.

*Number of reviews is from November 2024 to August 2026, total for 4 Yakiniku Motobu Farm stores and Karakoro store. You can apply even if you can't speak English or Chinese.

Japan Meteorological Agency Average monthly temperature (1991-2020)

In Okinawa's winter, the average monthly temperature is more than 10℃ higher than in Tokyo. It doesn't snow, and there are many days when you can wear just one long sleeve during the day.

January to March is the whale watching season when humpback whales come to the Okinawa sea. Starting in late January, the cherry blossom festival, said to be the earliest in Japan, will be held at Mt. Yaedake in Motobu Town. Winter is the time to enjoy northern life.

You can save without worrying about housing

Hourly wage 1,500 yen x 7 hours x 22 days per month231,000 yen
Dormitory fees (utilities included)− 20,000 yen
After deducting the dormitory fee211,000 yen

*Working hours and days are estimated as they vary depending on the shift. This is the amount before deductions such as income tax and social insurance premiums.

You don't need to look for a room, pay a security deposit or key money, or arrange furniture. The dormitory fee, including utilities, is simply deducted from your salary, so it's easy to see how much money you'll have left over each month.

For those who have worked continuously for more than 3 months, the company will also cover the transportation expenses to Okinawa (there is a limit). Since meals are provided on working days, you can also save on food costs.

4

You can gain customer service experience at a branded beef restaurant

I work at a yakiniku restaurant that serves Motobu beef raised on its own farm in Motobu town. You will be able to explain to customers the differences between parts such as misuji, zabuton, and aichibo.

The most common thing that is praised in reviews about this restaurant is its "kindness and friendliness." This is a workplace where your consideration is valued more than your special skills.
