At JPY 3,000–3,999 per head, Ponzu sits mid-tier among Tokushima yakitori and izakaya options. Ishikawa Shoten comes in cheaper at JPY 2,000–2,999 and delivers solid skewers in a more casual, group-friendly setting, if budget is tight or you're dining with a larger party, Ishikawa is the better pick. Shokurakuen charges JPY 5,000–5,999 and offers a more refined, multi-course experience with higher-end ingredients; choose it when you want a special-occasion meal with more ceremony. Ponzu's counter focus and wine-sake pairing program split the difference, you get ingredient sourcing closer to Shokurakuen's level without the coursed rigidity, at a price point only slightly above Ishikawa.

Izakaya Harubo (JPY 4,000–4,999) overlaps Ponzu's price range but skews toward a livelier, group-oriented izakaya vibe with less counter emphasis. If you want a more energetic room and broader small-plates variety beyond yakitori, Harubo is the move. NAMAIKI and 食士わたなべ round out the local field, though pricing and format details are less transparent, worth investigating if Ponzu and the others are fully booked. For solo diners or pairs prioritizing counter seating, duck sourcing, and a drink list that goes beyond beer and shochu, Ponzu is the clearest recommendation in the city.
