Wonderful place with a cool old school vibe where you sit on the floor and enjoy your meal and you can see everyone doing the same thing. It feels so communal and relaxing to just chill on the floor, kick back and have some small eels. The food is great, the small eel is nice and tender but it definitely is not as fatty as normal eels. As a result, this meal doesn’t fill you up as much, making it very easy to order a lot more or eat just enough so that you can go somewhere else after. Give this place a try if you are ever in the area of Asakusa!
Amazing trandisional restaurant, very nice atmosphere, polite staff. Delicious food in reasonable price. I strongly recommend it.
Asakusa’s 駒形どぜう (Komakata Dozeu) is a restaurant founded in 1801 and devoted to dishes created using どぜう or pond loach, a sea creature eaten around Asia, but as far as I know, not common in the US except apparently as an aquarium fish. It was my second time this trip consuming the beast, and while it looks somewhat disturbing, I liked it well enough. I found the atmosphere festive, the dining room a vast expanse of tatami with wooden “tables” a few inches off the ground running the length of the room, and servers all wearing kimono. We had their two most popular dishes, どじょう鍋 (dojou nabe), which cooks over a charcoal brazier in front of you as you continually add green onion, and 柳川鍋 (Yanagawa pot), dojou in sweet egg sauce that gradually hardens as you eat.
Clearly a tourist spot with modern Edo period setting Portion is small but perfect for me, a solo traveler who craves for other food:) Dojo meat is soft and smooth, bones are eatable Though it’s a one time experience, 2000yen is still a bit pricey
