Yokosuka Shell
A long-standing diner where you can enjoy the three major Yokosuka specialties plus izakaya menu items.
Known for offering all three of Yokosuka's greatest gourmet dishes: the "Yokosuka Navy Burger" and "New York Style Cherry Cheesecake," both recipes provided by the U.S. Navy Yokosuka Base, and the "Yokosuka Navy Curry," born from an old Imperial Japanese Navy recipe, this diner has been a staple for over 50 years.
The "Yokosuka Navy Burger," sought after by fans nationwide, is known for its thick patty and satisfying bite. The authentic, rich-tasting cheesecake and the hearty navy curry served on a plate are also favorites.
Besides the three main dishes, the diner offers a variety of specialties like yakitori and grilled hokke, typical of izakaya menus. The interior, coordinated to match the port town vibe, presents a retro-modern space reminiscent of the Showa era. Close to the popular Dobuita Shopping Street, it's a must-visit during your Yokosuka sightseeing trip.
