Unique Dining Experience
One of the highlights of Kobe Suma Sea World is the Blue Ocean Orca Stadium, the only restaurant in Western Japan where guests can dine while watching orca performances. The restaurant’s stunning backdrop of a 21-meter wide and 2.7-meter tall acrylic panel offers diners a close-up view of these magnificent creatures. The autumn buffet will showcase seasonal dishes, including Kobe pork served with a rich porcini mushroom sauce, and a delightful salad combining roasted eggplant, salmon, and seasonal figs.
Additionally, visitors can enjoy takeout from the Port Diner Orca Stadium, featuring unique offerings like a Mont Blanc-inspired café latte topped with chestnut cream and chunks of roasted chestnut, perfect for enjoying alongside the spectacular orca performance.
Local Flavors at Wharf Dolphin Stadium
Kobe Suma Sea World emphasizes local produce with its food court, Wharf Dolphin Stadium. Here, guests can savor authentic dishes made from fresh, local ingredients. Featured menu items include a seasonal tempura rice bowl made with Hyogo’s famous vegetables and the most recent catch, the Japanese Spanish mackerel, and a comforting Kobe beef curry infused with tender Awaji onions.
With both indoor seating and an outdoor terrace, patrons can soak in the scenic views of the surrounding landscape while enjoying their meals.
Seasonal Delights Await
Autumn is a time to celebrate the bounties of nature, and Kobe Suma Sea World invites everyone to indulge in these specially crafted seasonal offerings. Whether you're sitting down to a buffet meal or grabbing a quick snack, the combination of great food and engaging entertainment is unmatched.
