Unagi Kinsui
Founded in 1970, a long-established eel specialty restaurant in Tsuchiura's Nagakuni district. Trusted by locals as 'the place for eel in Tsuchiura.' Only domestic eel purchased directly from a trusted Shizuoka aquaculture farm is used, finished with a secret sauce maintained and replenished since opening. The fluffy, fragrant una-ju is exquisite. Fully booked at lunch — reservations strongly recommended. Three grades of una-ju available, all using a full eel.
Reviews consistently say 'this is the only eel place in Tsuchiura,' 'the sauce maintained since opening makes all the difference,' and 'impossible to get in without a reservation.' Tabelog 3.44/140 reviews (top-ranked eel restaurant in Tsuchiura), TripAdvisor 4.2 (#6 of 294 in Tsuchiura).
