A Silver Award-winning Unagi Restaurant on Tabelog!I made a reservation about two weeks in advance for "Unagi Uomasa" located in Yotsugi, Katsushika Ward.This restaurant is a representative of Tokyo's unagi (eel) scene, having been selected as a Silver Award winner in the Tabelog Awards 2026 and listed among the top 100 restaurants. Despite being close to Yotsugi Station, many people travel from afar to dine here.It operates on a reservation-only basis, and they prepare fresh unagi according to the reservation time, carefully filleting, skewering, grilling, and steaming it over Kishu Binchotan charcoal.When making the reservation, you can choose how you want your unagi prepared. Initially, I selected the "Unawasa Ju," which is served with white grilled eel and dipping sauce. However, upon my visit, they kindly explained the options, and I was able to switch to the regular "Unaju" instead.I ordered the Special Domestic Brand Unaju for JPY 7,700. While waiting, I was served crispy eel bones and liver, which made for a delightful snack. After about 30 minutes, my unaju was served. As soon as I opened the lid, a wonderful aroma wafted out, revealing a beautifully glazed eel laid out generously.The surface had a delightful smokiness from the Kishu Binchotan, while the flesh was plump and tender. The steaming technique typical of the Kanto region really shone through, with the rich flavor of the fat and the sweet and savory sauce perfectly complementing the rice.There were some empty tables, so it might be easy to make a reservation. However, it seemed that last-minute slots were likely to be filled quickly. This is a must-remember restaurant for days when you want to enjoy truly delicious unagi.▷ Special Domestic Brand Unaju JPY 7,700 ▷ Liver Soup JPY 300 ▷ Japanese Sake Kudoki Jouzu Junmai Ginjo JPY 1,200 ——————————————————————— Thank you for reading my review.
