小川菊
1807年創業の老舗の鰻料理店。 7代に渡って受け継がれた秘伝の甘辛いタレが塗られ、最高級の炭である紀州備長炭を使って焼き上げられた鰻は非常に美味しい。 皮が香ばしく、身は口に入れるとホロリとくずれるほどふっくらとしており、上品な味わいだ。 一番人気の鰻重には、ふんだんに鰻の蒲焼きが盛り付けられ、ボリュームがある。 その他、う巻などの一品料理も充実しており、鰻のコース料理もある。 店は約100年前に建てられた木造の大きな一軒家で非常に趣があり、店内も和の雰囲気に満ちていて、良い感じだ。 ランチタイムには行列が出来ることが多いので、時間をずらすか、予約を取っておいた方が良い。(※予約ができる時間帯は11時からのみ)
