Karuizawa Unagi Yondaime Kikukawa

Unagi Restaurant Run by a Long-Established Eel Wholesaler with 90 Years of Operation

High quality eel carefully selected by an eel specialist with a long experience

Unagi restaurant run by an unagi wholesaler with over 90 years of history. The restaurant is committed to Japanese cuisine, recognised as an intangible cultural property. Japan’s traditional cooking skills such as “splitting the fresh eel, skewering, and charcoal grilling” are performed in front of the customer. Each eel is seared over blazing flames, achieving a crisp golden skin, tender and airy flesh, and melt-in-the-mouth natural oils that define its freshly prepared perfection.

Eels are selected based on size and fatness. It gives a sense of luxury and exclusiveness to have a whole fillet of eel

An open kitchen offering an immersive experience to witness traditional Japanese culinary artistry up close
