Description
Nestled in the serene village of Tsumagoi, Kappou Taikou offers an authentic Japanese dining experience with a focus on Unagi (eel) dishes. Known for its signature dish, Unaju, which features expertly grilled eel served over rice, the restaurant showcases traditional Kanto-style cooking techniques, where the eel is both grilled and steamed to perfection.
The menu at Kappou Taikou extends beyond eel, offering a variety of Japanese culinary delights such as sashimi, liver soup, crispy fish bones, stewed vegetables, and pickles. Each dish is crafted with precision and care, reflecting the restaurant's dedication to quality and tradition.
Located near Gunma JR Kazawaguchi and a short drive from Kusatsu Onsen, Kappou Taikou is easily accessible for both locals and tourists. The restaurant's calm atmosphere is complemented by warm and attentive service, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing meal. Inside, guests can choose from counter seats, table seating, or a raised tatami area, each offering a unique dining experience.
With over 20 years of history, Kappou Taikou has become a staple in the community, known for its commitment to using fresh ingredients. Live eels are kept in a tank filled with the clean waters of Tsumagoi Village, ensuring the highest quality before cooking. Reservations are recommended to secure a spot at this beloved establishment, where tradition and taste come together in harmony.
