This place needs a better rating for sure! It’s a bit pricy but was def worth it. One downside is that it almost took 30 min for our food to come out. Fyi.

My name is Yanagibaba Umenoi. This is an eel restaurant. This is a famous store that has been introduced in various media. I had Ugaigai Eel Set Meal Ume around noon. The eel at this restaurant is cooked in Edomae style. Since the eel is steamed and then grilled, it is plump and soft, and can be easily sliced with chopsticks, making it easy for even the elderly to eat. The set meal comes with liver soup, dashi rolls, and pickled vegetables. The dashimaki was also very delicious and satisfying. You can pay your bill while sitting at your table without having to stand up. I could feel the spirit of this long-established eel restaurant. The atmosphere of the shop doesn't have a particularly old-fashioned feel, but I liked it.

We went to dinner!! ️It was like the 90th anniversary, so I got it at a pretty good price.
It's Edo style, so I like it.
While I was waiting, I received some bone crackers.
The most important part, the eel ju, was delicious. Personally, I think the rice could be a little firmer...
Thank you for the meal. I'll visit you again!

It was very delicious.
The eel was tender and the rice and sauce were perfect.
I'm not good with liver, but they were happy to change it for me.
The dashimaki was also delicious.
