Best Unagi restaurant in japan

P	Patrick Lai on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Eel is grilled by charcoal in the traditional way. Taste extremely good! Note: There are only 12 seats and the shop is tiny so it is not suitable for people carrying luggages and infants. Need to queue up an hour before it opens (open at 1130 am). Don’t expect the service as it is a traditional small restaurant providing world class quality eel rice only.
C	Christine C on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you don’t mind waiting for about 45 mins to an hour during lunch hour, this is a must eat. The restaurant only has approximately 13 seats. We ordered half unagi. Would recommend you to get the full unagi which will cover the whole bento box. Charcoal cooked unagi with very good quality Japanese rice.
G	Gian Lorenzo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ They know their eel here. The tare that they use is amazing, not as sweet as ones that you'd normally get. The eels are cooked to perfection. The waiting area is very comfortable and the service is very good. The wait is worth it. Prices are very reasonable, on the cheap side when it comes to eel in Japan to be honest. I've been to a lot of eel specialty places in Japan but nowhere has beaten this place. I don't feel like I've arrived in Japan yet until I go and eat here.
N	Nat Manomai on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was very lucky on 02/25/19 at around 13.00. I had to wait just 10 mins and only three people infront. My third time to visit the restaurant.
A	Ayaka Eats Japan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were absolutely lucky to get seats without lining up. There are counter seats, table and sitting floor seats. If you’re able to sit a counter seat, you can see how they make it in front of you?Oh the Unagi don was so delicious!!!! I would say it was one of the best Unagi don I’ve ever had! Easy access by walk from the Asakusa station. Note: They are very careful about the corona restriction. I would recommend not talking out loud when not wearing mask.
V	Vanness Wong on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is definitely the BEST Unagi Rice I've ever had in my life! I had few in the past years in Osaka and Tokyo, but this one is the most traditional and original. They use raw and fresh Una, dipped them in grilled sauce and put them on charcoal grill. The sauce is light and not thick, sweet but not too salty, just perfect with the grilled Una and with japanese rice. The meat of Una is tender but it is not too soft like other fake Unagi store. You can still see and taste the straws of muscle fibre, as you can see the close up picture. It's quite expensive, costed 4800YEN (45USD) for a large Unagi rice, but it's totally worth it. There are not many chance in my life to have such amazing Unagi Rice.
T	Theresa K on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This little restaurant has been around since 1861 - I'd attribute the perfect sauce to the time they've had perfecting it. We arrived on a Tuesday at 11:15AM and were fortunate to be numbers 10 and 11 in line (the shop seats 12). We happily shared a table with another duo. The restaurant is cramped but you don't think about it as your senses are distracted by the slightly sweet smell of sauce coming off the charcoal grill, the glisten off the unagi, and the flavour profile on your tongue.
P	P Z O U T on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The price is crazy but it is the best Unagi in Tokyo. Nice serene location; the iconic little green building. Went in December and the weather is cool so it's still alright for the long wait, (cannot imagine queuing up in summer). After the queue outside, you will be usher inside to the waiting area. Traditional Japanese house setting. When you sit there, you will understand why the long wait... The place is very small. When it's finally your turn, you will be so happy and deeply appreciate the holy grail of all Unagi??Friendly owner but they should consider changing the rules. Every patron have to order a set of Unagi with rice. It would be nice if young kids can share a meal as they cannot finish it alone.
