Excellent, refined and beautifully presented by pleasant, gracious staff. A terrific place for a quiet dining experience. Their approach to unagi is understated, showcasing the delicacy of this dish when properly prepared. I should add, however, that the more rough and ready, folksy version of unagi which I have experienced in the countryside near Yanagawa was in many ways even more to my liking. Ultimately it’s a personal choice and I’d happily return to this restaurant any time.

One of the better unagi restaurants in Fukuoka. The other famous place is nice, but this place has much better portioning, value and service.

The unagi is delectable, Crispy outside and soft and fluffy inside.
