Unagi Yondaime Kikukawa Singapore

Excellent unagi, they provide the unagi sauce in a condiment bottle in case you'd like more. Ambience is relaxing with top tier service, staff and floor manager are polite and knowledgeable.

If you want to savour fresh grilled eels or Unagi, you should not miss this restaurant. They told me they import live eels from Japan and only slaughter them 30 minutes before the restaurant opens for business each day. They would grill the eels only upon customer order. So there you have it, freshly grilled live Unagi, cannot be any fresher. Also, the serving of the eel is very generous such that I couldn’t finish it and have to give the leftover to my spouse. The eel is meaty, flavourful and well grilled. I prefer adding more Unagi sauce and they would make it taste better. But I think if the eel could be further grilled till crispy on one side, it would be perfect. Overall, food is nice. Ambiance is typical Japanese style and the service is excellent. $$

There are many specialty unagi restaurants here in Singapore, and having been to almost all of them, I really like this one and would probably recommend everyone to try here once and just enjoy the exquisiteness and privateness of the restaurant. Unassuming on the outside (and easy to miss), the inside decoration just mirrors what a Japanese restaurant would look like. Small outlet with an open kitchen that outlooked the grill station for the Unagi, there is no smell at all despite so. We not only ordered the Hitsumabushi set for each of us, we also have sashimi and tempura moriawase. The true test of the 5 star food is that there is no drop of quality and standards to the sashimi and tempura despite this being a unagi specialty restaurant. The Hitsumabushi set is really good for one person (you don't really need other starters). The unagi is grilled perfect with a light char at the side and both crispy and tender when you put in your mouth. The accompanied broth (soup) is light and fresh, adding to the flavour and if you follow the traditional way of eating unagi rice, then you wouldn't miss the broth. Overall, a very good meal, though the price is slightly above expectations (but worth every penny!). Service was excellent too! p/s their wasabi is freshly grated!

Superb service. If it’s your first time, they will explain the menu items and teach you how to eat it. Tried both the grilled eel without sauce and with sauce. Both tasted great. Loved the tempura too. Portion is big. Will definitely come again.

Went to try since we never could understand the hype about unagi. Service was tip top and efficient. I changed my reservations and they accommodated. Ambience was good. Cozy but a little smoky due to the bbq of the unagi. Parking is aplenty in Shaw House. After 6pm is a flat fee of $4. We ordered 2 unagi , 1 egg roll and 1 liver. Let's talk about the egg roll first. Plating, egg wrap done wonderfully well. However egg has no seasoning probably due to chef worry spoil unagi taste. It was flat. But portion was good. The fried liver was excellent. Our first time having it and fried to perfection with a slight salty taste. The unagi set (large) came with a side miss soup with some unfried liver. Liver tasted so good. They tried to Elevate the soup taste with some yuzu and miscellaneous items but I didn't like it. Unagi was huge since we ordered the large portion. Seasoning was good. Not too salty and you can pour more sauce on your own. However the bottom of the unagi was slightly burnt and had a bitter taste. Which basically spoilt the taste. Overall. It's a good try but I won't be coming again. Total bill : $140+ after gst and service charge 2 x unagi set at $48 each set 1 x egg roll 1 x fried liver
