This high quality eel restaurant provides traditional way of eel dishes. They don’t have walk-in order because their eel needs at least 30mins to prepare. A booking is a must. My suggest is to go there one day before or at least two hours before and put your name down on its reservation list. Their seats are limited, but off-peak hour will be a higher chance for a retreat to your taste bud.

No English menu BUT you don't need one since there's only 1 thing on the menu: eel and rice. Was looking for an unagi restaurant off Google and this popped up. The hosts were kind enough to let us walk in because a table next to us mentioned it was a reservation only place. We were the only non locals. Word of warning, it's not cheap. We kind of went in blind so we ate without knowing the cost. For 2 during lunch, it was about 12,000 but well worth it for the experience, service, and good food. Price changes with the market price of eel, though. However, don't come in if you're in a rush since the rice and unagi are cooked fresh per customer and can take a while if there are a lot of people before you. The menu consists of eel with rice, clam soup, and ochazuke (like a rice soup) along with a constant flow of warm tea keep you sated. Simple and effective.
Must try unagi eel rice. They cook both the eel and rice using a fire place and serve both separately. It’s a unagi experience I have never tried before. Reservations definitely recommended but we managed to get in without one during low season. This place is cash only.
Super gooddd! I love it when the rice comes in a hot pot. The unagi is super fresh and taste amazing. No fishy smell at all. The old man who serve the meals was also kind & attentive. This place is located near Nishiki market so you can also snacking around before / after meals!
Cute cosy restaurant with very welcoming owner. They have only one dish and it's delicious :) Service was beyond excellent. A bit pricey but worth it ! Definitely the perfect place to enjoy the unagi experience.
