Unkai Japanese Restaurant is located within the ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Hiroshima Japan. I usually avoid hotel restaurants as you can usually find better and cheaper restaurants outside, just a few minutes walk from the hotel. I checked in late at the ANA Crown Plaza Hotel so didn’t feel like going out so went in to Unkai and I am glad I did.

I got into Unkai Japanese Restaurant just before last orders at 9pm. I had a browse through the English menu and there were a few things that took my fancy. They had a full Wagyu beef selection multi-course meal for 10,000 Yen and the choice of sashimi and sushi plates also looked good. Instead I went for a plate of the Wagyu sirloin steak and also a plate of the mixed Tempura with prawn.

The Wagyu beef was awesome. So tender and full of flavour. Absolutely delicious! This was some of the best Japanese Wagyu beef I have ever tasted.

The mixed tempura was also delicious with 1 large prawn with a mix of vegetables. They do serve the prawn head which is nice and crispy.

The restaurant has traditional Japanese decor inside and with a window looking out over the most amazing Japanese garden which was all lit up at night time.

The staff were lovely and spoke good English. When I made my reservation online with the ANA Crowne Plaza hotel I had enrolled in the IHG Rewards Club to earn points with my stay. When I checked in at this hotel they gave me a card, because I was a member, which gave me 10% discount in any of the restaurants in the hotel. A great deal which costs nothing to register for the IHG Rewards Club.

If you are staying in the ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel Hiroshima then you should check out this restaurant. Definitely try the Wagyu beef!
