At Unaman, domestic eel is first steamed and then carefully grilled over charcoal. This method results in a fluffy and tender interior, with a perfectly crisp skin. The technique removes excess fat and enhances the dish’s light, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Their secret sauce, infused with soy aroma, is light and perfectly complements the eel.

Main dishes include the classic grilled eel over rice, bento-style boxes, and “Hitsuma” (a dish that can be enjoyed as ochazuke – with tea poured over). You can also try the more refined option of “shirayaki” (grilled eel without sauce) served with wasabi for a sophisticated taste.
