Excellent unagi, served in a vey fun atmosphere. We sat in a private room for 11 people, around a U-shaped counter. In the middle was a koi pond.

Each part of the multi course set menu was great. The sashimi was a notable course, with a nice variety beyond the usual and very good combination of flavours and textures. Of course the star of the show was the unagi bento.

In the Kanto region, you can eat unaju, which has become rare in recent years. It is a long-established restaurant in Yushima, and of course the taste is great, but above all, the friendlyness of the proprietress and other waitresses is wonderful. The price of Unaju is reasonable, and it costs 4,000 yen for one peach on top. There are famous shops such as Izuei, but it's worth knowing about this place!
