Zen Gardens' delicious Chinese vegetarian food (especially mock meats) are always a great treat. Their assorted seitan platter brings back childhood memories - I particularly enjoyed the mock cha siu in the platter. Their enoki mushroom balls are always great (I eat them at every visit), and the presentation of the crispy seitan with plum sauce looks just like roasted duck! Very impressive. The lo han chai chow mein was fully of various veggies, although we personally preferred crispier noodles.
We visited at the end of August and they had vegan mooncakes available for very reasonable prices, which was a treat. We had a five nut mooncake (baked just the day before which is very fresh for mooncakes) for dessert and it was fragrant and outstanding. Try their mooncakes! Service was wonderful too. Kind and helpful staff that took good care of us. Will be back!

Incredible vegetarian menu. Casual atmosphere. Service is okay, but you have to be assertive if you want anything beyond the first dish.

Zen Garden has quickly become one of my absolute favorite places to eat—and for good reason. From the moment you step inside, the serene ambiance envelops you in a calm, soothing atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a truly enjoyable dining experience.
🍽️ Flavorful, Thoughtful, and Delicious Food
The food at Zen Garden is consistently outstanding. Every dish I’ve tried has been full of rich, balanced flavors, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. Whether you’re looking for something hearty or something light and refreshing, their menu has a lot of options to suit every palate. It’s clear the chefs care deeply about quality and creativity.
🧘♂️ Calm Vibes While You Dine
What really elevates Zen Garden above the rest is the tranquil environment. There’s a peacefulness here that enhances the food—making the act of eating feel almost meditative. It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience.
✅ Highly Recommended
I would highly recommend Zen Garden to anyone in the area. Whether you’re dining solo, on a casual date, or meeting friends, this place offers a combination of comfort, calm, and culinary excellence that’s hard to beat.

Absolutely loved dining here! The fact that it's an all-vegetarian restaurant is such a bonus. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. The menu is huge with so many delicious options to choose from — there's something for everyone! The space itself is beautiful, spacious, and spotless. Everything we ordered tasted amazing, fresh, and full of flavor. Will definitely be back again — highly recommend!

Really top notch vegan Chinese food. Hard to find this much variety in Toronto. Would recommend if you’re vegan and craving Chinese!

Simply the best vegetarian-Chinese restaurant in the GTA. The zen-inspired food has kept me coming back for years and is a hidden gem tucked away in the most unexpected area. This place belongs at the top of my dining experiences and is a little known tread that I give to all of my guests and visitors to the city. With their menu, satisfaction guaranteed (try the BBQ Seitan: mind-blowing!)

I'm absolutely obsessed with this vegan and vegetarian restaurant! As someone who's always on the lookout for delicious comfort food that's also plant-based, I hit the jackpot here. The menu is a masterclass in creativity, with dishes that are both familiar and innovative.

Never been to a vegetarian restaurant before, and I must say the food here is awesome!!
The soup full of bugs is my favourite. Added protein in case you don't get enough protein dining at a vegetarian restaurant. The waitress was so proud when I told her. She told me they also served bugs in soup to their previous customer.

Great choices of vegan food. The red rice and sushi rice were overcooked, and there was too much water.
