About this spot
In Nakasu's bustling waterfront district, Eel Restaurant Yamamichi serves thick-skinned unagi that is grilled until the skin crisps while the inside remains buttery and sweet. The chef pairs this premium eel with a dashi broth so clear it looks like water, letting the fish's natural umami shine without heavy seasoning.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the rice first to soak up the savory dashi before your grilled eel arrives.
- Save room for the grilled scallops served on the side, which are equally tender and sweet.
- Expect a wait during dinner rush hour as locals flock here for lunch and dinner alike.
