Had the opportunity to try Zen for lunch, and it did not disappoint! Some of the best fusion I’ve had. I made sure to share this with others in local online food groups. Can’t wait to come back on an empty stomach

Good food! Great service! We ordered a bunch of things and we were all in agreement that the soups were the best particularly the Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup and the Udon Noodle Soup. The soups are massive (easily a 2 person portion).

Unassuming restaurant tucked away in a strip mall. Casual, simple dining area with open kitchen.

Service is friendly and it wasn’t crowded. The serving size is a lot larger, but it is considerably much more pricier.

Great place for Asian fusion. Food quality is excellent. I recommend the Wor Won Ton soup, pot stickers, and Salmon Nigiri. Seating area is small so might not be able to pop in to done but they do take out and its worth it.

I usually order the Pad Thai which is always delicious but I’m a little under the weather and ordered the Taiwanese Beef Noodle soup to-go and it was just what i needed! The stew and beef tastes like it’s been cooking for hours and hours! They even gave me to-go bowl since they knew I’m having lunch in the office! Super friendly and fast service! Everything I’ve had here is super yummy!

Have to admit a bit skeptical about what an Asian bistro would bring to the table but I was surprised.

It’s not about the experience. The food is outstanding in my experience. Salt and Pepper Wings /Kimchi Fried Rice BBQ pork style. Fantastic. Small place, not much to look at but the staff is nice and the food excellent

I love this place! Every item I’ve tried was all delicious and the price is also reasonable. The Taiwanese noodle with the pickled veggies is one of their remarkable dishes. I really like the pork riblets, it was so juicy and tasty.
