An elegant moment to enjoy the smooth fat and thick meat of domestic female eel in an all cypress interior

Located very close to Heian Shrine, Kyoto Unawa Main Branch Jingumichi welcomes guests with a high-quality space constructed entirely of cypress wood. The eel served is exceptionally large and thick at over 300g, and special procurement lets them handle rare female eel. The smooth textures of the plump body and fat are truly impressive, and the eel can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, including Premium Hitsumabushi and the Combination Meal, which lets guests enjoy Eel bowl and Hitsumabushi at the same time. It's filling with every bite, and the fragrance and delicious flavors of the eel are truly impressive. The interior features counter seats, sunken kotatsu table seats, and table seats. Guests here seek out a relaxing time, and range from couples, families, and solo guests who know a lot about eel. Perfect for special days, like girls' nights out and anniversaries.
