MK Guide Recommends
Maruya Honten is one of Nagoya’s most popular spots for hitsumabushi, the city’s signature grilled eel dish. Conveniently located inside JR Nagoya Station’s Umaimon-dori dining area, the restaurant offers travelers an authentic taste of Nagoya’s culinary heritage without leaving the station. The eel is carefully grilled over charcoal, then coated with a rich, sweet-savory tare sauce before being served on rice in traditional wooden bowls. Guests can enjoy the dish three ways—plain, with condiments, or as ochazuke with broth—each revealing a different flavor layer. With its polished service and timeless taste, Maruya Honten captures the essence of Nagoya cuisine in one iconic bowl.
