Zen Ramen & Grill is a cozy spot with delicious ramen and friendly service. The broths are rich and flavorful, the noodles fresh, and the portions generous. I also recommend the crispy wings and the Black Garlic Pork Tonkotsu—it’s outstanding. Sometimes a few dishes can be inconsistent, but overall it’s one of the best places around for comforting ramen.
I might not come back for the ramen specifically, it lacked deep, rich flavors. I don't know if it's their Tare that over powered the flavors I'm supposed to taste in the broths,?(All I taste is saltiness and hint of garlic and shoyu)The noodles were definitely cheap which it's okay not every ramen restaurant has good noodles or wheat noodles for the Tonkatsu. The Pork Belly slices are thick, which is generous, but very chewy I guess could appeal to some, not...
First time trying this place and it did not disappoint! Spicy Pork Ramen was lovely, just enough heat. Combo Stirfry was an awesome mix of chicken, steak, and shrimp, seasoned well. Pork Buns were delish and the Crab Ragoons were thin and crispy! Excellent portion sizes too! We will be visiting again soon!!
