Utsunomiya, Tochigi, Japan｜Tachibanaya

The Tachibana family can be seen at the foot of Miya no Bridge over the Tagawa River. It has a nice and elegant appearance. I visit you every time I go to Utsunomiya. It was delicious with a slightly thicker sauce from the northern Kanto region. The prices are also reasonable compared to other stores. When I visited in June 2022, QR code payment was enabled. Since it is usually handled by a married couple, many customers call and ask about the time it will be ready before they visit. I do that too.

Speaking of famous eel restaurants in Utsunomiya, Kawasemi-san, Unasada, and Unagiya are the ones that come up, but don't forget about this restaurant. Business hours are short and we compete with just one eel. Authentic eel specialty store Therefore, avoid drinking and may tend to dislike smoking. It's not flashy Also, since the eel has to be cut first, it takes about 40 minutes from ordering to serving. It will be easier to count back the time you are going and place your order over the phone. There are no other knobs. The amount of eel (above) is about 2/3rds. The sauce is crisp, not too sweet, and has a nice eel scent. The eel was fluffy, soft and delicious.

On January 11th, while I went to Utsunomiya's first market, I visited Tachibana-ya to carry vitality and good fortune for the year. The eel was fatty and very delicious! The eel sauce soaked into the rice and whetted my appetite. Since I reserved my entry time and eel bowl in advance, I didn't have to wait until I was served. Reservations are possible, so we recommend making a reservation.
