Reviews
loved that this restaurant offered salt grilled eel. it was the first time I’d had it or even seen it on a menu and it was so delicious. highly recommend
Quite pricey but you get really good quality unagi!! This was definitely my favorite compared to the hitsumabushi (on Klook it’s called 1 eel with rice sauce and eel roll set). The eel is more fatty in this one and perfect with the fluffy rice!! Comes with a drink too yay
I booked a set meal on "look" and went to dine, everything was convenient, the staff was friendly and polite, and the overall experience was wonderful. The eel rice was delicious, but the portion was a bit too much, I was so full that I didn't finish the rice.
too pricy and not really worth it. there’s more unagi restaurants taste better than this. owner can only speak Japanese
This one is Hitsumabushi, Nagoya-style unagi where you eat it with dashi soup so kind of like ochazuke! It’s still quite good, with lots of portions, the unagi is more charred so if you like that, then this might be better than your classic unagi!! I prefer that more. Comes with a drink!
The location was extremely convenient, being right next to the subway station. I could even see the Skytree from the windows on the 2nd floor! ^^ They also had baskets readily available near the dining area to store my bags, which made it easy to enjoy my meal. In particular, I was able to have a pleasant meal thanks to the staff member who spoke Korean and kindly took care of my order~*
The food is really delicious, but the business hours written in the store and on Google Maps are different. Also, the staff doesn't speak English well, so I had trouble communicating on the phone, so I used Papago to translate it into Japanese and spoke to them.
It is worth buying again and participating next time. I recommend it to people who come to travel here.
A very ordinary meal. I personally think that there are many eel rice places around that are better than this one. At this price, I believe I will not come again because there are many choices in Tokyo.
