We love the atmosphere at ocean zen. They are super attentive- especially Connor. He's the man. And of course we always love taking a selfie at the giant mirror. It's a great overall experience.

Hey bestie, you need to check this place out! The ambiance is amazing! I was on a work lunch or I would have taken photos of everything, from the fish pond at the front, bright white interior, tons of sunlight, everything was super clean, to the very nice bathrooms. Great date spot or lunch spot either way! We were recommended to get crab rangoon and the server told us they have the best rangoons in Springfield. They were very good, sitting in a flavorful sauce, that I could have spooned off the plate into my mouth, but I held back. My colleague was recommended the Mandarin Chicken, he was very happy with his decision. I ordered the tuna poke bowl, it was a lot like a sushi roll, deconstructed. It was very good, pleasing to the eye, I would totally order it again, but there were so many things I'd love to try on the menu!

I can't complain our food was fantastic, service was superb. You don't have to hunt down your server for refills. Most of the time they sneak in and drop off a fresh drink without saying a word. I had ask my husband do you think the chef has a Michelin star? The food was that phenomenal!!

Everything was top notch from top to bottom! The service, the food was simply amazing, the decor and atmosphere and even the wine. Absolutely a stunner that I would have never expected to find in a small city like Springfield. Coming from Illinois I would have expected this type of establishment to only be found in a big city. A+

I had to wait a little bit for my take out order but it was well worth it! I got the Hawaii 5-0 Roll and a sea weed salad, and it was phenomenal!! My first time trying that roll and when I opened my take out I was surprised with how beautiful it was and it tasted soooooo

This place was amazing; the blueberry-glazed salmon melted in our mouths. The room looks great. The service is the best part. (I hope I'm spelling this right.) Amento, our waiter, was funny, fast, and only came to our table if there wasn't food in our mouths. There is nothing bad I could ever say about that man. This was our 10-year anniversary; we didn't say anything about it. till the desert came, but we were treated like kings and queens the whole time. I will say that for anyone going, the price may seem higher than in some other places, but that is because the food here is just so freaking amazing that it is worth it.
