I haven't been able to come up with the price myself though.
It was a light sauce rather than a sweet one, which I didn't like, but it was delicious. The tatami room was also nice. The rice, the soup, and the side dish are perfect for my taste.
I would like to add about 2 more pieces as a side dish.

Eel is domestically produced and has a delicious aroma and just the right amount of oil.
The take-out eel set comes with liver soup and oshiko, which is very satisfying.

I forgot to take a photo, but the seaweed was delicious too! Great as a snack until the eel is cooked.
The distance from the station seems a bit far, but it wasn't a problem as it only took about 10 minutes on foot. If you are interested, please take a one-meter taxi.
