【Order Details】Unagi Rice Bowl JPY 8800Brown Sugar Shochu JPY 1100Total JPY 9900This unagi restaurant is a 3-minute walk from Ito Station. I made a reservation by phone a month in advance. Photography is prohibited inside the restaurant, but it seems that the owner allows photos of the unagi if you ask.First, they ask for your drink order. For alcohol, you can choose from Japanese sake or shochu, or if you prefer, you can have tea or water. The menu consists only of unagi rice bowls and grilled unagi. It seems that the grilled unagi is by reservation only, as they will serve you the rice bowl unless you specify otherwise. There is no confirmation like "Is the unagi rice bowl okay?"After taking our orders, we waited a bit, and then received "pickled cucumber and daikon" and "unagi jelly". Five minutes later, freshly grated "wasabi" was served. At this point, 20 minutes had passed.They started grilling the unagi from here, and after a 20-minute wait, three out of six customers received their bowls. The remaining three were served another 20 minutes later. Fortunately, I was among the first group (40 minutes after entering).The unagi is steamed before being grilled, making it fluffy and tender. The skin is not completely crispy but has a slight crunch. The unagi is so tender that it naturally falls apart in your mouth, and the sauce is perfectly balanced.While JPY 8800 for the unagi rice bowl is generally considered expensive, I was very satisfied with the taste.It was a great meal.
