If you’re a fan of Japanese food, you’ve probably had unagi (grilled eel) before, but Uya takes it to a whole different level. Located in Wheelock Place (right in the heart of Orchard) and Novena, this restaurant is a “specialist” spot.

HOT-SELLING ITEMS ON UYA MENU SINGAPORE
Hitsumabushi: This is the dish that put Uya on the map. It’s Nagoya-style grilled eel served in a traditional wooden box, and it’s meant to be eaten in four stages.
Rare Wagyu Rice Bowl: They use high-quality Wagyu beef that is lightly seared so it stays “rare” and tender. It’s served with a silky sous-vide egg that you can break open to create a rich, creamy sauce for the rice.
Nagayaki Shio: While most people are used to unagi drenched in sweet brown sauce, the “Shio” (salt) version is for the true purists.
Unagi Egg Roll: It’s a fluffy Japanese omelet with a piece of grilled eel tucked right in the center. Every bite is a mix of sweet, soft egg and savory, smoky eel.
ABOUT UYA SINGAPORE
If you’re looking for a spot that feels like a mini-vacation to Japan, Uya is a must-visit. Tucked away in Wheelock Place and Novena, this restaurant is famous for its authentic “live” unagi. Unlike many places that use frozen fish, Uya keeps their eels in special tanks and grills them over real charcoal only when you order. This traditional method gives the meat a soft, buttery texture while making the skin perfectly crispy and smoky. It’s a very calm and elegant place with wooden decor, making it feel like a high-end eatery you’d find in the streets of Nagoya.

ALTERNATIVES OF UYA RESTAURANT IN SINGAPORE
Ichikokudo Hokkaido Ramen: If you like the “classy” and authentic feel of Uya, Ichikokudo is a great match. While they are famous for ramen, their rice bowls are underrated.
Monster Planet: If you want a meal that is a bit more playful and filling, Monster Planet is a huge favorite for secondary school students.
Daya Izakaya: An “Izakaya” is usually a Japanese pub, but Daya Izakaya has created a version that is 100% Muslim-friendly. It’s located in a cozy spot along Jalan Kayu.
Umisushi: You can find Umisushi in almost every major MRT station or mall. It’s great if you’re in a hurry but still want a quality Japanese meal.
FAQs
Is Uya Singapore Halal-certified?
No, Uya is not halal-certified. While they focus on high-quality seafood and beef, their traditional Japanese recipes use mirin (rice wine) and sake in the sauces. They also serve alcohol on the premises. For these reasons, it is not a suitable eatery for our Muslim friends. If you’re looking for a halal Japanese fix, Ichikokudo Ramen or Daya Izakaya are great alternatives!
I don’t like fish—is there anything for me?
Yes! Even though they are an eel specialist, their Rare Wagyu Rice Bowl ($27–$35) is a huge hit. It features tender, seared Japanese beef and a silky soft-boiled egg. They also have tempura bowls and healthy vegetable options, so nobody in your group has to stay hungry.
Do I need to make a reservation?
It’s a very good idea! Uya is popular, especially on weekends and during the dinner rush. Unlike some other famous unagi spots, Uya allows reservations, so you can book a table online or via WhatsApp to avoid standing in a long queue.
CONCLUSION
In short, Uya is the perfect spot for anyone looking to level up their Japanese food game. It’s not just about getting a quick meal; it’s about experiencing the traditional art of Japanese charcoal grilling. Whether you’re diving into their “four-way” Hitsumabushi or treating yourself to a bowl of melt-in-your-mouth Wagyu beef, the quality of the ingredients and the “zen” atmosphere make it a place you won’t forget anytime soon.
