I order food from here regularly, so I know the food is delicious. Came with coworkers, and we were extremely impressed at the service. Food came out fast, and the server was attentive. We stayed long after we finished eating, and they made it clear we could stay as long as needed. We didn't feel rushed at all. The restaurant is small but welcoming.

Ahhh, fantastic place. I know a relative of the people who run it, but that doesn't even matter. I had a Zen sushi roll, my son had the wanton soup, and my wife had the drunken noodles, and my daughter had something else. All of it was really good, and big portions. I like that they have a wide selection of different things and some non-std sushi roll combos. ???

Fantastic Thai cuisine served in a cozy and modern setting. The dishes burst with flavors, and no single spice overwhelms the taste. We requested a spicy level, and it was perfectly balanced. The portions are generous, featuring an abundance of vegetables. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful.

I continue to have issues with getting a satisfactory delivery of my order. I've called Zen Bistro to complain a couple of times, but that hasn't resolved the issues.When I order the Hot & Sour soup with crispy won-tons, they forget the won-tons.When I order California Rolls with extra wasabi, the rolls are barely held together/ As soon as I pick one up, it disintegrates and falls apart. Plus, it seems as though the rolls have been already made and have been sitting around for hours - not fresh. And sometimes, I get very small portions of wasabi (which is why I started asking for extra) even though I've asked for EXTRA.I've decided to look for another Asian food restaurant. My family has tried to like Asian Zen Bistro, but they continue to screw up our orders and the sushi leaves a lot to be desired as far as freshness and build quality.

This place has authentic flavors and impeccable service. Each bowl and dish promises a symphony of taste, capturing the essence of traditional recipes. A must-visit for noodle fans; the Taiwanese beef noodle soup is a culinary journey that takes me back to Taiwan. Ask for John he’ll take care of you!

I’ve been here a couple times and have never been disappointed! The Black Pepper Wok is my favorite! The servers are also very nice and good service. Would recommend!

First, let me state the hostess/waitress Cindy had a sour attitude. It took 20 minutes for your guys to make 1 spider roll when there wasn't anyone in the restaurant, except for one male patron who was finishing up his drink. If the older lady, who must be the onwer/manager, had not reminded the sushi maker about the roll I would have been waiting even longer. The Spider roll taste was par at best. Even the ginger tasted old.The hostess/server(Cindy) was also too lazy to add chopsticks and a napkin.This was a take out meal so the fact that the hostess/server might have felt sensitive about me not giving a tip, lets me know that I should NEVER come back to support. Why would I give a tip when you did no waiting for me? Especially this being my first time there. I'm not going to give extra money for take out when I don't know how my experience will be. I will also make sure to tell my coworkers and others not to support as well. It would be smarter to spend their money elsewhere and have a better experience.

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 ?
