What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A charcoal-grilled eel gem in Asuke, known for its Korankei autumn foliage. Unlike the Tokyo steamed style, the eel is grilled directly over charcoal (ji-yaki style), yielding crispy skin and tender flesh. No reservations accepted, lunch-only service that ends when sold out — a sign of the real deal. Google Maps 4.03, Tabelog 183 reviews, 5,530 saves. Queues on autumn weekends require a number ticket. Takeout eel bento also popular.

"A trip to Korankei is incomplete without Kawayasu's eel." "Kansai-style direct charcoal grill — crispy skin, rich sauce, absolutely outstanding." "Worth lining up before 11 AM, no question." "Getting this quality eel for ¥1,950 is a miracle." "During foliage season, numbered tickets and 1-hour waits are the norm."
