We pulled up and got a spot right outside the door but I have a feeling we got lucky. Just to be safe, I would say be prepared to walk a block or two. When we walked in, we were seated immediately. Our server came and brought waters right away. Our server helped us pick out what menu items were tasty and they were all spot on. Now I would be lying if I said these were the best empanadas I ever had but they certainly weren't the worst. My wrap was tasty to say the least. My cup was never empty and our server was attentive. No complaints. I mean the floor was a little sticky but it is a bar for the most part so that is to be expected. It's not at the top of my list but I would go back if invited.

The food had me sick as a dog for about two days. I had a temperature of about 102 shivers body aches and all of that. Surprisingly the service wasn't actually bad at all but I absolutely cannot see myself coming here again.

The show that Powerman 5000 put on while we were there was INCREDIBLE!!! The venue was so intimate, I felt like I was part of the band! The people were all super chill, drinks were reasonable and servers were so chill & polite.

I visit this restaurant-bar, often, with good friends. They have reliably good Tex-Mex food, a nice patio, and the friendly bartenders are happy to learn both your name and exactly how you like your mixed-drink made. This is also the home of the very handsome, hand-crafted back room, separately listed on Yelp as "Clandestino." In addition local bands play in the side room, which features a stage.

I have been going to Zen West ever since I was attending Towson University. The bartenders are always friendly, and the food is consistently good. My personal favorite is the Zen West Original GRILLED (yes not fried) wings! I LOVE wings but am trying to avoid fried if possible and boy do these deliver. The dry rub with that flavor coming off the grill is so enjoyable for me. There are regular wing options as well if you're not down with the grilled option. They have a bleu cheese that pairs wonderfully with the wings for me. My only complaint is living in Owings Mills, they aren't closer to home. Zen West is conveniently located near Belvedere Square. There are TVs at the bar and they do live music as well. Authentic Tex-Mex is the cuisine, with some unique options such as the grilled eggplant & portabella Reuben. Definitely check it out if you're in the area for some good food and drink selections as well.

A laid back spot with really good food. I've tried several items on their menu and everything has been better than expected. Most recently I had the Eggplant and Portabello Reuben which was a first for me. I didn't know quite what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed. They also have plenty of TVs if you wanna catch a game. There is a separate section where live music is played on certain nights.

This spot was just ok, I got a skinny margarita, and it was probably the worst margarita that I've ever had in my life. I know by it being skinny it's already not going to be as good, but still I've had many that were better than the one here. The nachos were good, but they're different. This was the first time I had nachos where every piece was served to you fully covered. It was a nice concept because everything was even dispersed, but also it made the chips soggy

Zen West is a neighborhood classic and favorite! Their grilled wings are truly one of Baltimore's best! You can never go wrong ordering the wings or the trio sampler which comes with a basket of warm (and delicious) tortilla chips.

Will not be coming back here. The food was good here at time. The service was awful, how can you take a order, and keep coming to table asking are we okay. The waiter forgot to even put our order in! Never again!
