Make sure to order the "real Unagi" or "Ten-nen" (wild eel) here—it's a world apart from the farmed variety. This is my favorite place in Japan for Unagi, and they also sell unique snacks like Unagi bones, heads, and tails. Don’t go for the cheaper options when you visit. The ¥5000 Unagi donburi is absolutely worth the price, and it’s an unforgettable experience for eel lovers!
