Toyota, Aichi, Japan｜Unachu

Best Unagi in Toyota City

Visited in July 2021, near the end of Saturday. At this time, it is not possible to make a reservation for a group of 4 or 5 people, so we rushed around 11:30 without a reservation. There were about 3 groups waiting, and it was unexpectedly peaceful. I had to wait outside, but since the entrance is on the north side and the sun doesn't hit it, I didn't sweat so much and was able to wait. Before I waited for 30 minutes, my turn came and I was seated. I had the Unaju. Restaurants that serve eel tend to slow down the more they serve it (there are some restaurants that make you wait 40 to 50 minutes), but here it wasn't that late, it was served in about 20 minutes (I'm not serious). does not mean that It looks delicious when you open the lid. After eating it, yes, this is delicious. The so-called crispy outside and fluffy inside, but the way of baking is more fluffy than Parisian. I personally like it. While there are eels everywhere that only taste like charcoal or sauce, this place really does taste like eel. I didn't make it to a large serving, but the rice was less. For those who think that it will cost nearly 4000 yen, it would be better to have a large serving of rice. Pickles and liver soup were also carefully made and delicious. Thank you for the meal.

There was a sign saying that it would take time to serve the food due to the small number of staff, but it wasn't too late. Both the eel and glazed eel were very delicious. The liver grill is limited in quantity, so next time I want to go a little earlier.
