About Ezumi
Found at 73 Bank Street in Vinetown, Ezumi is a Japanese restaurant that has become part of the Vinetown dining scene. It sits right in the heart of Whangārei, within walking distance of the centre.
Expect the flavours of Japan: at Japanese food venues like this, favourites such as sashimi and tonkotsu ramen are usually on the menu. It is one of 15 Japanese venues we list in Whangārei.
Ezumi opens 5 days a week and is closed on Saturdays and Sundays. The earliest start is 11 am on Mondays, and the latest finish is 8 pm on Mondays. Like many traditional restaurants, it closes between lunch and dinner service on several days, so check the times before heading over mid-afternoon. In total it trades for about 35 hours each week.
For budgeting, Japanese restaurants of this kind in New Zealand typically cost around $40–$70 per person (Mid-to-upper range). The neighbourhood is a busy food area – there are at least 10 other places to eat within a kilometre, so you have plenty of options for drinks before or dessert after.
