Best places: Unagi restaurants in Minato, Japan

👍👍 One of the best meals I’ve had in Tokyo. Am unsure if this restaurant is listed as one of the better Unagi ones but it surely was good enough for me. The Unagi tasted just nice (not the usual overly sweetened kind), was charred to perfection (crispy on the outside and tender inside) and the meat had...

Traditional restaurant featuring freshwater eel dishes, many served grilled over rice.

👍👍 Booked to come here on a weekday afternoon. They had someone guide us to our table, the inside of the restaurant was very beautiful and traditional. It took some time for the food to come, but it was my first time to eat unagi without its usual sauce - and it was very tasty!!! Especially the rice bo...

😐 2023 update. The cooking method for this restaurant is a little different and healthier from the usual charcoal grilled way. I was introduced to this taste and now prefer this instead. Although reservations will not be generally accepted, the short wait is absolutely worth the quality and tastes...

👍👍 located in the mall annex, was easy to find! walked in for lunch, the ambience was very nice. ordered the unagi sets and it was very affordable. my first time having unagi too! was definitely fulfilling and enjoyed our time here :).

👍👍 Very delicious! A must come eating place in shibuya for eels lover.

👍👍 Freshly made! A little bit pricy but worths it! When most of the other restaurants use over-sweety sauce to make the dish, you can feel the original taste of fish and rice here.

👍👍 Great choice for lunch. One of the best unagi meals I’ve ever had. The perfectly cooked eel is sticky and smoky with a hint of sweetness. They open only from 10:45am to 2:30pm and the crowd is mostly senior company executives or tourists. The crowd seems to thin from 12pm onwards so that’s a safe t...

👍👍 I had the kaiseki course, Miyabi. It was lunch, but it was a private room, so I was able to eat slowly. At the entrance of the shop, you can see how the eel is being grilled in the glass kitchen. The eel was cooked so softly that you wouldn't believe it wasn't steamed. I don't drink much alcohol,...

👍 This is a very good and authentic unagi place near Ginza. When you reach the place, you will know that this is not a touristy place. There was a queue but it was not a long wait because they turn tables pretty fast. It is lucky that they accept credit card. We had the most recommended lunch set wh...

😠 I was very impressed in the beginning about the food and the service as it was my first time here however toward the end when we tryna pay for the bill it ended up being way more than what it was. We chose the ¥6500 course but they charged us for ¥9500 and as we were trying to show them what we had...

😠 Any travel be aware: they have a separate menu for foreign travellers. Unagi meal from 1700 Yen ( for japanese) to 4300 Yen for travellers. Good luck

👍 This restaurant is a hidden gem in Roppongi! The food & service are excellent and there are only 8 seats (you need a reservation). Why only 4 stars and not 5? Killing an animal for food is needed, but doing so has to occur with the least amount of pain possible. Chopping of the back of a lobster wit...

👍👍 Love this place. I'll visit once every time I travel to Tokyo. They serve good unagi and specialise in it, so no need to worry about the freshness and quality. Their Unagi Sakura set is what i go for. Their service is professional and luxurious. Price is worth it. Located on the 4th floor of Tokyu P...

😠 In conclusion, this place was not worth the price and time. We waited an hour and a half for our food despite booking in advance. The service we received from the male staff was the worst we had for restaurants at this price level. The most important thing is that the unagi was rather disappointing,...

👍 Very decent unagi at reasonable prices. Place is small and during weekday lunch it is extremely smoky. Be prepared to smell like smoke the day long.

🫤 It's not bad, but it's not good either. Somehow halfway. The correspondence of women at the cash register is also ✖️ From our bill, we are writing the receipt of the customer who is still in the seat. First of all, isn't our accounting in front of the cashier first? To be clear, a third-class st...

👍 I think it would be nice if this eel could be eaten at this price. That's ... there are many more if you want, but if you want to go many times, this one is better ... It's grilled over charcoal, so it's fragrant and delicious.
