Shōjō

South End & Chinatown


Clean, contemporary and super cool, Shōjō is unique in Chinatown for its trendy vibe (and unfortunately loud music). The menu picks and chooses from all over Asia and beyond, effortlessly blending disparate elements into original, enticing, shareable fare. If you're not afraid for your arteries, the duck fat fries are highly recommended.
