Saraya Fukuryu

Saraya Fukuryu in Yanagawa, Fukuoka, offers a warm and cozy dining experience with beautiful Japanese-style seating, including private compartments and a tatami area overlooking a Japanese garden. The highlight is their unagi (eel), prepared using a unique steaming and grilling technique. The unagi is described as exceptionally tender, rich, and flavorful, with a smoky, sweet, and caramelized sauce that perfectly complements the hot, fresh, and evenly sauced rice. The accompanying liver soup is aromatic with citrus notes, and the pickles offer a salty contrast. The overall experience is highly positive, emphasizing the quality and unique preparation of the eel.
