Unagi Sagi-tei

This charming establishment, built in 1943, allows guests to savor eel while enjoying views of the Hita river landscape. The unique grilling method produces a crispy, fragrant skin and tender flesh, with the white grilled eel enhanced by just salt to bring out its umami. Their signature 'kabaseiro' features steamed rice topped with sauce added afterward, which has received high praise. The subtly sweet sauce and careful cooking create a sharp flavor that keeps your chopsticks moving.
