Ponchan

Hands down the best gyoza I have had in Japan.
This is a mom and pop gyoza shop. Run by a very sweet couple.
The gyoza are sold frozen and you take home these little pouches of goodness and cook them yourself.
They have green onion, spicy, duck and leek, and the house special gyoza.
My personal favorites are the spicy and the duck/​leek.
Check out their website at
for a more complete description.
Also be sure to get a bottle of their gyoza sauce!
Did I forget to mention their ridiculous point card that gives you more of their products as you earn more points? Yea, it’s amazing! 500 yen = 1 point. 7 points earns you a sauce, 21 points gets you 50 gyoza, 40 points gets you their Pon Set! Earn gyoza by eating gyoza… why sign me up!!!
Speaking and reading basic Japanese is a must, but trust me it is worth it!
