    This Tokyo-imported Holy Grail of tempura serves just 2 (!) menu items: Tempura whitefish or fried eel + shrimp, scallops, drippy yolk fried egg, all heaped on sticky rice, covered in sweet soy sauce. Read more

    We recommend the tendon, rice bowl with tempura, expressive of the roasty, nutty flavors of the expensive sesame frying oil, of the subtle sweetness of prawns and Tokyo eel. Read more

    Pro tip for vegetarians: with the new menu the plates with only veggie tempura are no longer displayed, however they will make #1, #10, #12 with veggie tempura instead of shrimp. Just ask.

    I think the whole eel is worth the extra $4, but you can't go wrong with either! This place is the real deal.

    Delicious! I had the eel bowl, the egg is a nice umami addition and combines perfectly with the rice and sweet soy sauce

    Really nice delicate batter, perfect soft boil to accompany a surprisingly substantial piece of fish. This ones good! **Nosh, nosh**

    Really tasty tempura that just happens to be in a food court. Get the Shrimp Ten Don.

    Faves: Tendon w/eel; Skip: to-go, even if 10 mins away. Fresh is so much better

    Don't miss the battered soft-cooked egg. It's a wonderful bit of Fryolator magic: Read more

    It's hard to pass up Santouka when at Mitsuwa, but give the tendon a try.

    Order an extra egg. After eating here you pretty much will only want tempura from this place and this place only.
