About Zen House
Zen House is a Japanese restaurant at the Woodland commercial node, the small cluster of businesses where Woodland Avenue meets Calvary Road at the top of the hill.
Woodland is one of the few above-the-hill Duluth neighborhoods with any commercial ground at all, and this handful of addresses is it: a Japanese restaurant, a Sammy's, a bar and grill a few hundred metres west, and a grocery. For households in Woodland and Hunters Park, that node is the difference between a five minute errand and a fifteen minute one down to Kenwood or London Road.
