Went to ZEN/Asia Bistro late on a Monday night for Sushi for the first time and really enjoyed it. We sat at the bar and the service was good, and so was the food. We had 6 rolls and the Thai Wings were so spicy but really tasty.

Our original reservations in the city were canceled due to an emergency. Luckily, we were able to get a table at 10pm. The food was good. The chicken was extremely tender and flavored well. The kimchi was delicious as well. Strong drinks and good service so I enjoyed myself.

We love this place! I feel they have done an astounding job with serving outside. They can take a while to take your order and get the check, but once ordered the food comes out quickly. The rolls are delicious and the wontons are amazing!! I would highly try the passion tea vodka drink.

Made a reservation for brunch today. We had six people in our party. They had our table waiting, and our server was friendly and efficient. They were honestly the best I’ve ever had. As a table, we also enjoyed the deviled eggs, greens, tater tots, and carrots. Several of us got Chicken and waffles, which were enjoyed by all. The egg and bacon sandwich and chicken sandwich were also hits. Overall, I can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend.

This restaurant was very creative with their dishes. There is a nice variety to accommodate most palettes. I was not a fan of the fried chicken, which is a fan favorite there. I thought it lacked flavor. However, their appetizers and side dishes will have you craving them for at least a week!!!!! Omg!!! I have a sweet purple cabbage with bacon and goat cheese that has my mouth watering to this day!!!! Also, this appetizer is INCREDIBLE! It features a combination of flavors that come together and create awesomeness! I would try all of the apps and sides if I could! Enjoy!!!
