A luxurious restaurant for locally grilled eel that captures the essence of Kyoto
Gion Unagi Kawato is a charming establishment set in a retro atmosphere, having been renovated from an old ryokan. Here, you can savor the unique locally grilled eel that Kyoto is known for. The technique of grilling the eel without steaming it results in a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior, delivering a delightful texture and a rich, savory flavor. You can also watch the grilling process from the counter seats. This is the perfect place for those looking to forget their daily routine and enjoy a special moment.
