Highlights
The "Fuku" unaju (eel rice box) is so overflowing with eel that the lid won't close, often containing about 2.5 eels.
The eel is consistently described as fluffy and tender, with a flavorful, slightly sweet sauce that isn't overpowering.
You can take home any leftovers, which is handy given the generous portion sizes.
