Unagi Nakasho (うなぎなか勝)

Unagi Nakasho is an eel restaurant in Fukuyama. It is said to be one of the most popular eel restaurants in Fukuyama, and there is always a line out the door. The menu includes only eel dishes such as “Unaju,” a whole eel on a bed of rice, and “Hitsumabushi,” a dish of shredded eel on a bed of rice.

Moment of Joy

Unagi Nakasho serves eel dishes using only “Isshiki Unagi,” a brand of eel from Aichi Prefecture, a major producer of eel. The tightly packed eel meat is slowly grilled with a special sauce to create a luxurious texture with a crispy outside and fluffy inside. Unagi Nakasho also offers a wide selection of draft beer, sake and other drinks that go well with eel.
