Shogun Restaurant in West Newton Has Closed

A decades-old Japanese restaurant in the western suburbs of Boston has shut down.

According to a Bluesky post from @y2000k.bsky.social, Shogun Restaurant in West Newton is no longer in business, with a photo posted indicating that it closed permanently as of May 5. The Washington Street dining spot, which had been open for approximately 40 years, was known for its sushi while also offering such options as teriyaki, shumai, gyoza, yakitori, udon, sukiyaki, donburi, and katsu.

The address for the now-closed Shogun Restaurant in West Newton was 1385 Washington Street, Newton, MA, 02465.
