The Verdict

Shokuzen is a Japanese restaurant on Ponsonby Road, well known by the locals for its relaxed atmosphere and affordable yet delicious fare. Shokuzen is a popular destination for BYOs in the area, with punters drinking sake and manoeuvring chopsticks most weekends, all while sitting under traditional Japanese cherry blossoms. Also, do yourself a favour and try Shokuzen's Karaage Chicken (and their fresh sashimi while you're at it).
