Uya Japanese Unagi Restaurant

Nice cosy environment, you can see the chef bbq the eel from the dining area, the staff and attentive and responses quickly. Probably one of best Unagi I’ve tried in Singapore. Thou it can’t be compared to the once I’ve tried in Kyoto, this is good enough to satisfy my craving. Nicely grilled and flavoured, while the meat is tender. If there’s anything I though it could have been better would be the thickness of the Unagi, we also ordered the grill liver, I’m personally not a fan of it. The tempura oyster is amazing thou, fresh, big and juicy. Overall I would highly recommend this place if you’re a fan of Unagi or looking for a good Unagi in singapore. As for price, we paid 115++ in total for dinner so it’s a little pricey

There was a 1 hour wait when we reached at 12.05 on a Saturday but all the items we ordered were great! Sashimi was fresh and tasty with freshly grated wasabi. Fish skin was thin and very crisp unlike the thick breaded Irvin's kind typically used elsewhere. Unagi was grilled in house with slightly crisp skin and was very flavourful without being drenched in sauce. Tempura was crisp and tasty. Rice was good quality Niigata rice, sides and soup all were good. No complaints at all, would definitely come back again!

Saw a mini queue when I got there at 12pm (wed), got a table in 5 mins. Friendly and attentive staff. I like that the sauce was minimal and just enough to complement the unagi instead of drowning it. Heard the guy next to me asking for more sauce, so I guess it depends on individual preference. Enjoyed the grilled livers, great taste and texture.
