Unatoto Asakusa

This is one of the best unagi I have tasted. Naturally there's a Q at peak hours, so be patient. You will be well rewarded. Please be aware that they don't seat incomplete group so make sure everyone is around.

Ordering is easy via the machine they have at the entrance. Press your order and pay either by cash or suica card and you are done.

I literally have nothing bad to say of their unagi. The price is fair. The portions are generous and superbly cooked. The food arrives hot and freshly prepared. The aroma, the flavour, the colour. Unbelievable feast to the eyes, nose and tongue. I would definitely visit this place again when I am in Tokyo.

Other than the main unagi dish, they do have some extras. I find the liver skewer tasty. Their soup was light but yummy. The eel wrapped in egg was interesting. Egg was well cooked and the thin egg layers rolled around the eel was lightly flavoured in order not to overwhelm the eel. Having said that, all of them are merely distractions to their main dish, the unbelievably delicious eel. I can't rave enough how good it is.

But a word of warning, the space is tight. It may get squeezy and uncomfortable but i feel the food most definitely makes up for any minor inconvenient sensation.
