浜名湖うなぎ 元城亭
An eel specialty restaurant located on the 18th floor of Hotel Concorde Hamamatsu near Hamamatsu Castle in Shizuoka. Carefully grilled eel from Lake Hamana, known for its thick flesh, rich fat, and consistent quality, is prepared to achieve a crisp exterior and tender interior. The sauce, based on a recipe inherited from the former luxury ryokan Hotel Kokonoe, which closed in 2021, offers a deep, sweet flavor that pairs well with Koshihikari rice grown in Hamamatsu City, noted for its firm texture and rich taste. A selection of local sake chosen by a certified sake sommelier is also available. In addition to table seating, private rooms are provided, accommodating occasions such as anniversaries and formal gatherings.

The owner trained at a traditional Japanese restaurant in Shimizu City and took over the business in 2020 as the second-generation owner of "Hirota Unagi". He sources live eels from areas in season, ensuring he uses the freshest and most delicious ones available. He values the knowledge acquired during his training, the techniques passed down from his father, and the traditional secret sauce, which together allow him to serve high-quality eel dishes every day. He emphasizes, "I want people to enjoy eel with peace of mind." As you pass through the noren curtain, you are greeted by a fragrant aroma that fills the air, and an irori hearth comes into view, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant also features a tatami room that can accommodate up to 20 guests, suitable for various occasions. Here, you can savor eel dishes at your leisure in a charming, rustic-style setting.
