Meguro City, Tokyo, Japan｜Yatsumeya Nishimura Meguro

Amazing 🤩 Relatively affordable, quick and delicious unagi. Unagi is usually pretty pricey. This shop serves delicious and affordable unagi, and is mostly a takeaway style shop. They do have some seating, somewhere. I’m not sure how that works though. I think you can just ask to dine in. I just got done with a workout and was really craving unagi. This shop was exactly what I was looking for. Their bento prices when I visited the shop were as follows: Unagi Bento without rice - ¥3,000 Unagi Bento with rice - ¥3,300 They normally have other options as well but, I think they were only serving bentos today. I got a bento with rice, and took it to Rinshi-no-mori (a nearby quiet neighborhood park). At the entrance of the park there is a vending machine so you can grab your self a drink to go with your bento!

We went on a day when it was surprisingly not too crowded and were.seated within 10 minutes. The seating area itself is like a mystical dining room up the staircase of an old house with just three tables, and you walk through the amazing smell of charcoals and unagi to get there. Once seated, the menu is pretty simple. It is expensive but worth the price! The unagi was fresh and delicious, and eating in this ambience has a meditative feel to it.

Absolutely delicious grilled eel (unagi). The eel is so fresh and perfectly cooked... It melts in your mouth.
