Matsumoto's Unagi Kappo Sakuraya is a long-established restaurant founded in 1920. 2023.09.15 Currently Tabelog 3.35, Google Map 3.9. We are a member of the ``Unagi Hyaksen-kai,'' which includes famous eel restaurants from all over the country. From my experience of visiting Matsumoto, I had the impression that there were many eel restaurants, and that's actually the case, with nearly 20 restaurants listed on Tabelog. However, for some reason, many famous restaurants, including ``Unagi no Matsuyoshi'' and ``Yanano Unagi Kanso,'' are closed on Thursdays when I visit. I also tried to make a reservation for the popular ``Yamasei'' restaurant, but it was already full. So I decided to go to Shibizakuraya, a famous restaurant that is open on Thursdays, and it turned out to be a good restaurant. Both the kabayaki eel and the famous eel sasamushi were delicious, and the restaurant had a great atmosphere and customer service. 3 Directions, appearance, and business hours of Matsumoto Unagi Kappo Sakuraya 4-9-1 Ote, Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture 390-0874 15 minutes walk from JR Matsumoto Station. It's a bit of a walk from Matsumoto Station, but it's not far from Matsumoto Castle, making it a good location for sightseeing. I discovered the Sakura family in the back of a lovely Western-style mansion. By the way, this Western-style building is apparently French cuisine called "Taiman." I was really curious about this too. Exterior of Unagi Kappo Sakuraya Part 1 Sakuraya has a Japanese-style storefront. It looks like it was renovated fairly recently. Exterior of Unagi Kappo Sakuraya Part 2 The road leading to the entrance also looks nice. The words "Sakura family" written in calligraphy are very cool. It was just around 12 o'clock on Thursday. I wasn't sure how crowded it would be, but I was able to enter the store safely. [Eel Kappo Sakuraya's business hours] 11:00-14:00/17:00-20:00 (LO) Closed on Mondays 4 Matsumoto Unagi Kappo Sakuraya's menu and atmosphere There was a menu at the store. Unagi Kappo Sakuraya's store menu eel bowl starts at 2,750 yen. Eel Kappo Sakuraya Menu Part 1 The basic dish is eel bowl, not eel rice bowl. Eel Kappo Sakuraya Menu Part 2 And the famous eel sasamushi is 1,460 yen. I ordered one of these and the upper eel bowl for 4,290 yen. The tea is delicious. The first floor of the store has table seats and counter seats. The second floor seems to be a large hall and a parlor. ``Let's protect Mother Wild Eel'' poster. The reason there are so many eel restaurants in Matsumoto is because people used to eat wild eel from the Tenryu River. The table seasonings are eel sauce and Japanese pepper. This Japanese pepper also tasted good. 5 Matsumoto The eel bowl and eel sasamushi I had at Sakuraya Unagi Kappo restaurant were quite fulfilling. Upper eel bowl and eel sasamushi @ Unagi Kappo Sakuraya Matsumoto Comes with eel bowl, bamboo steamed liver, Small dish (daikon ohitashi), and pickles (takuan and nozawana). First of all, the liver sucking scares me. It's round, full-bodied, and has a wonderful spread of flavor. Even the liver is delicious. And eel bowl. Upper eel bowl @ Unagi Kappo Sakuraya Matsumoto There are three rather small pieces, but they are thick. Since it is grilled Kansai style, the sauce is modest and it tastes a little salty. I also like Kanto style, but sometimes I find it a bit too saucey. Kansai-style eel allows you to enjoy the flavor of the eel itself. Sansho is very fragrant and the aroma alone is delicious? Feeling. I had plenty of it. And the eel sasamushi. First time eating eel sasamushi @ Unagi Kappo Sakuraya Matsumoto. Even if you remove the bamboo leaves, all you can see is sticky rice, but there is plenty of eel inside. The scent of bamboo is delicious. This also tastes good with less sauce and you can enjoy the deliciousness of sticky rice. The bill is about 5,720 yen. It's not cheap, but considering the content, I was very satisfied.
