***CASH ONLY*** I chose to eat here as I wanted grill eel and this was near my hotel. Both my spouse and I ate the basic bowl with 1 order of eel that came with tea, slightly pickled cucumbers, and a light soup. I actually forgot my cash and had to run to my hotel and they were very friendly throughout the process.

If I come to Kanda, I mostly stop by here. Yiu can smell the Unagi from outside. It’s casual style - come, order and eat (drink just a bit). Ah, I’m in heaven.

I can't say I am a big fan of unagi but my wife is so we visited this cute little restaurant to give it a try. It was delicious! The lady owner was super friendly to us at all times and while she can't speak English she has this gadget that allowed us to translate in almost real time. A great experience.
