Unagi Ryori Yoshimune

Unagi Ryori Yoshimune is a refined yet welcoming eel specialty restaurant located near Kirishima Shrine. Since opening in late 2020, it has become a weekend favorite. The kitchen offers thick, perfectly grilled eel over rice, prepared with care over Binchotan charcoal. You can customize the experience by dipping the sauce at the table.

With private rooms, family amenities, and takeaway options (until 2 PM), it’s ideal for both solo diners and groups seeking an authentic eel meal.
