馃嵄The most viral Unagi Shop in San Francisco! Is it worthy?
馃嵄Unagi Shop
馃搷704 Post St, San Francisco, CA 94109
鈻笍This shop, which opened in January, has only been open for a little over a month due to intermittent renovations. It seems that not many people know about it yet, so hurry up and come try it before it gets crowded and you can't get a seat馃槀
鈻笍According to the owners, they previously only had set menus, but now they have added 脿 la carte options, which can be ordered directly on TOCK or Yelp. We chose the $125 set, which included a total of 10 dishes, all related to unagi (freshwater eel), including desserts.
鈻笍Overall, it is worth a try! The unagi liver toast is really good! The chawanmushi (egg custard) made with unagi broth is also very flavorful, love it! The various cuts of unagi, all grilled to order, are served with a reminder to be careful of the heat, and they are indeed very hot. I got burned two or three times because I was too eager to eat馃槀
鈻笍Finally, the super hearty and large portion of unagi rice bowl was just amazing, but I had to end up taking the leftovers home because it was too much... It paired well with the refreshing unagi broth, not oily or greasy.
鈻笍As for dessert, they also gave us a portion of Shizuoka melon. Satisfying~
馃挌The service was very good. The waitress even brought us a glass of yuzu sake and the final dessert included Hong Kong-style milk tea pudding, along with the Shizuoka melon. During the meal, she also kept telling us that if something didn't taste good, they could adjust it to our liking, including the unagi liver in the middle, which she mentioned because some people don't like it, and if we also didn't like it, she could replace it with something else. She also offered to add more sauce for the unagi rice bowl if we wanted.
馃АIn short, the service was excellent from beginning to end, very friendly and attentive. However, the service charge was automatically included in the final bill without giving us a choice. Our total was around $270, with a service charge of $60, in addition to taxes and the SF Mandate, all of which were added directly. Although the set menu was $125, with all these miscellaneous charges, it came out to be approximately $180 per person.
