“Yamabiko (山びこ)“

Ave. Budget: Lunch 1,000-2,000 JPY, Dinner 1,000-2,000 JPY

A recommended eel restaurant (1)

“Kabaya (かばや)“

Ave. Budget: Lunch 2,000-3,000 JPY, Dinner 3,000-5,000 JPY

The Nagara River was also a production area for eel, but when it comes to eel in Gero, the first place that comes to mind is “Kabaya”.

The filleting is done with the Kansai style belly opening, but with the nuance of flavors from the Tokai region such as sauce, it is more substantial than other famous restaurants in other regions, and the cost-performance is outstanding.

In addition to eel, there are also various set meals featuring Hida beef and other dishes, and the crab cream croquette is particularly popular.
