Restaurant Details

Nestled in the heart of Okayama, Ujo Tei is a delightful destination for unagi lovers seeking an exceptional dining experience. Known for serving natural blue eel, this rare delicacy boasts unparalleled flavor and texture. At Ujo Tei, diners can savor both shirayaki and kabayaki styles. The white-grilled shirayaki is accentuated with wasabi, enhancing the eel's naturally rich taste, while the kabayaki version is glazed with a savory sauce that perfectly complements the dense eel flavor.


Located near Okayama Prefectural Office, Ujo Tei is easily accessible for both locals and travelers. Its cozy atmosphere and conversational service further enrich the experience, making it ideal for casual lunches and special occasions. The restaurant's interior is elegantly simple, creating a backdrop that allows the high-quality dishes to truly shine. Patrons often praise the hospitality of the owner, whose passion for unagi is evident in both the preparation and the delightful anecdotes shared with guests.


While natural blue eel is usually available until October, Ujo Tei occasionally extends availability due to exceptional catches, highlighting the restaurant's commitment to offering the finest seasonal ingredients. For those visiting outside peak season, farm-raised eel is also on offer, ensuring a consistently satisfying meal. A visit to Ujo Tei isn't just a meal; it's an exploration of unique flavors and a celebration of one of Japan's most esteemed culinary traditions.
