This presentation is beautiful, especially for a lunch special. But, some of the fish is near frozen. Plus, ranch dressing!?

I had a good experience and the food seemed pretty tasty--until I asked for a to-go box and found rat droppings inside! Gross! This completely changed my impression of the place. Hence the two stars. Now I understand why we were the only customers in the restaurant from the time we ordered, ate, and discovered the droppings. They need to get an exterminator in there as soon as possible and have regular visits to prevent this from happening again. Additionally, I suggest making the place more inviting by removing unused furniture and opening the sushi bar. Please do something about this!

When I first moved to this area, Zen was a hidden gem that I often frequented. Something has changed. After some pandemic related quality issues, I stopped going regularly, and today went for lunch, for the first time in two years or so. It was awful. To start with, I had a boba tea. The tea itself was good. But, the boba? I thought they put blueberries on my tea. They're dark, rock hard, and chewy. This means they're either overcooked, or more likely, old. Also, the price on this tiny cup is outrageous. Particularly when you consider it had all of seven pearls in it. Okay, okay... onto the miso. It's very clear, very bland, and has a kind of fishy taste to it. I couldn't finish it, and I could handle a 55gallon drum of miso soup. Yurk. I ordered the sashimi lunch special. My white tuna was ice cold and slightly frozen. The regular tuna and salmon were okay -- the red tuna was actually quite good. The California roll, well, it's a California roll. It was fine. Oddly, the side salad was covered in ranch dressing, which is not a good companion for sushi. The service was fast and friendly. The food presentation was downright gorgeous. And, the place was sparkling clean. Guys, get the food quality back up and I'll come back. I used to order twice a week. But, right now? There's a taco bell and a jersey mike looking pretty good.

Not sure what's going on with this place. It's been in this location a long time and it used to be pretty good, but the reviews within the last year or so seem to indicate a downward spiral. Now it's more hit and miss. The empress fish entree was good, but the crab fried rice was a disappointment -- It tasted good, but the lump crab the menu promised was nowhere to be seen. Basically 19 bucks for a plate of rice with one baby softshell. The service was fine, but I could see how the slightest surge might throw that all out of whack. Like so many older family run joints, they've adjusted to the new DoorDash economy by trimming staff to the bare bones, while bags of to-go orders get cold by the door. One day when I visited, a catering order for 300 people (I asked) was getting packaged up. Zen's cash register might still be doing well, but it's easy to see how quality and service for dining in could get lost in the shuffle.

There is a lot to choose from the menu. You have the classic Asian dishes and sushi. Even though it was a Sunday, they let us order the Beef with Broccoli from the lunch combo menu which included a soup and spring roll. We also ordered the Happy Family which has shrimp, scallops, chicken, and beef with mixed vegetables in brown sauce. Food and service were very good. Plenty of free parking.

I really enjoyed my time here at zen. Firstly they have a whole vegan menu which is fabulous. We had a great server on Christmas with fast service. I got a sweet potato roll and it was delicious. Also got a mixed veggie vegan entree and it was very good too. They have a full bar and many other good options. Will def come back !

Food came out cold! Service was poor by server section 3. The sad thing is I used to love this spot! I came almost every day for lunch when I worked in the area. The quality has simply gone down. Would no longer recommend, unfortunately

Unbelievably horrible service. From beginning to end we felt rushed, unwelcome and as if we were bothersome. Everyone seems oddly annoyed and rude? We were so uncomfortable dining here. Please take your business elsewhere. Not to mention.. the food is rubbery, cold and flavorless.

The food was great! My family was so happy when I surprised them with sushi. The order was prepared and ready at the specified pick up time. The sushi was in a great tray that kept it looking awesome and made it easy to carry.

Great Spot for a Holiday luncheon!I attended my work holiday luncheon at Zen asian Grill and sushi and was thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere was nice the food was delicious and the service was top-notch. The staff was attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend for a celebration or a just any dinning occasion.
