Carefully Selected Premium Unagi, Grilled to Perfection

Unagi no Shimomura Okazaki

Tabiiro’s picks: signature dishes

"Unaju," so flavorful the chopsticks keep moving

"Unaju" Defined by a Distinctive Texture and Skilled Craft

A signature dish worth starting with is "Unaju." Opening the lid releases the fragrant aroma of charcoal grilling and the secret sauce, heightening anticipation for the meal. Only carefully selected, thick, high-quality eel from Mikawa Isshiki is used. Grilled directly over charcoal without steaming, the eel develops a fragrant surface, rich flavor from the fat within its thick flesh, and a remarkably soft, fluffy texture. Each skewer is carefully grilled by skilled chefs, creating a balanced combination of the eel's natural umami and rice coated with the sauce. The dish remains satisfying to the final bite.
