What People Are Saying About Zen Grill

In Short – The loud kitchen and muffled disco music don't exactly lend themselves to the Zen theme--but crowds of fashionistas getting tofu fixes and dharma dudes taking gyoza breaks fit in fine. Though not entirely health-conscious, the Pan Asian menu has nutritious options. Minced chicken in lettuce cups provides a light start. Teriyaki Chilean sea bass is served in caramelized brown sauce with nut rice and edamame. Pan-fried tofu steak, dumplings, sushi, samosas and pad thai complete the menu.
Unique little spot, with a lot of attitude.

For me you can't go wrong with value and variety, and this place has both! They have a great sushi tower that consists of tuna tartar and some yellowtail sashimi with a nice sauce. The Pad Thai is the bomb, and I absolutely love their Chilean Sea Bass. Another great thing, is you can sometimes spot a couple celebs there, so overall, its pretty sweet.
- Pros: Value & Variety
- Cons: Parking, Only one bathroom
Great Pad Thai
by tesskh
This place has some very unique asian dishes. It is a cute, little restuarant that serves delicious, yet good for you, food. I love the tofu steak dish and the pad thai is always good too.
- Cons: Parking
great little restaurant with consistently good food
by janicebarthelemy
This is a regular for my Husband and I. Although it is a very tiny place, we usually don't have to wait long for a table, be prepared to hear all the diners around you converations! What is great is the food come fresh, fast, inexpensive and always good. In fact the fried calamari salad rivals the one we had at Asia de Cuba that is almost 3 times the price! The seabas is a steal for the price and is moist and delicious. The soups are great and large enough for one to have as a meal. Don't forget to leave room for the fried banana's with ice cream and chocolate sauce - yum!
