Wakamatsuya — Restaurant in Yanagawa

The eel bento here is a must taste for every visitor in Yanagawa!

Steps on how to dine, easy as 1 to 8: Go in, Take a number & specify number of guests. Wait at a nice & warm waiting area downstairs (we waited for less than 10 minutes for our late lunch). When called be aware it's in Japanese. Try to google translate you number. Go upstairs & choose you seat. Kindly put your bags & jackets in the offered table-side baskets. Order from the offered menu. Choosing their signature eel bento is the best bet. One bento is allowed to be shared between two guests, just ask for an extra bowl later (we also ordered two cheaper side dishes). The wait ain't long. Try to finish as fast as you can while enjoying the view. Take pics outside at the garden!

Ps: less 1 star as the eel skin was a bit too burnt thus the amazing taste of the fatty eel was slightly ruined. Still tasted real...

MUST TRY

This place is amazing for both atmosphere and meal. Combination of both enhances experience of Japanese dining. Worth a visit.

• Timing: opens till 14:30 hrs then afternoon break before dinner. • Queue: went there around 13:10 hrs and people started to leave after lunch. Waited for like 10 minutes to get table. • Atmosphere: got a table for two in another building which has access from the back side. I didn’t know that this place is huge! Shoes off and on slippers inside. Tatami mat, traditional Japanese music, Japanese garden view. • Menu: A set with soup & pickles or with additional salad & egg rolls with eels. • Jou-Seiromushi (full course) - very yummy. Rice was flavoured with eel sauce. Super tasty. As the whole box was steamed before being served, rice and eels remained hot until my last bite. Loving it! • Price:...

First time eating Unagi no Seiromushi. This is one of the most delicious eel we've had. The quality is top notch, taste and smell superb.

The eel's bone is an interesting dish. A little bit salty and very crunchy, really fun to eat. Recommend to try it out if your teeth are okay with hard stuffs.

Tamakoyaki with dashi is nice. Mild flavor and fluffy. Very easy to eat. They also have other dish like Oyakodon too.

The restaurant is a little bit inside from the street so the atmosphere is very peaceful and quiet, with the view of Japanese style garden. Staffs are very helpful and friendly....
