“ Very good atmosphere, there is counter seat and also upstairs. The eel is a must to eat, freshness guarantee. Sauces mixed with it makes it perfect taste. Draft beer is the good ending. There is limited quantity of grilled eel liver. Location is in the centre of Namba, on a small alley. Reservation recommended as it’s always busy. It was Thursday evening 7pm, diner has non-stop coming in. Staff always smile and I perfectly serves diner. Master grill is cool guy. ”

“ A little bit hard to find the place cuz there is no Eng sign at the entrance. The place opens at the specific time so you have to check first. Atmosphere is nice and staffs are very kind and able to speak English. The food portion is ok, taste is good but not that much compare to the high price. ”
