Reviews for Zen Japanese Food Fast in Austin, TX
The bowls are okay for lunch and tasty, sometimes a little too heavy on the sauces. But my problem with this place is how filthy... it has been the last two times I?ve gone. They need to do a better job keeping the restaurant clean during the day. If you gothere for a late lunch, it?s a mess? Read more
I placed a takeout order for the crispy almond chicken & the dumplings. The food was decent, but the chicken was soggy and the... dumplings appeared to have raw pork inside so I had to bake them myself. Read more
At one time over the years I really enjoyed eating at Zen. The last couple of times, not so much. I always order a BYOB with... salmon. Some years ago they changed the noodles (skinny) to udon noodles (fat and doughy). Okay. Today when I order my regularitem, the teriyaki sauce was thick and sooooo salty. I called to ask about this. "Has there been a change with the sauce? Why isit thick? Why is it excessively salty?" I was told it was the temperature. When the sauce is cool it thickens. I've never heardof such a thing. The noodles and salmon were hot (normal eating temp). Teriyaki sauce in the store doesn't thicken, even at roomtemperature it doesn't. Needless to say, I didn't get to eat my lunch. Sidenote: the potstickers were great! Wonderfulpresentation and very tasty. Read more
Service was great but the food was really fine. Hurt my stomach immediately and tasted very medium. I guess you get what you... paid for but I wasn?t say I?d come back Read more
Very friendly staffs and nice environment! The service is pretty quick. I love the outdoor settings and the interior design/... decor. Decent place to grab a box of sushi ???? and relax. Read more
If you want fast food that?s fresh and healthy check out Zen Japanese. I?ve been coming here since 2017 but they?ve been around... for way longer (2006?). I always get the build your own bowl and I?ve never been disappointed. Read more
Reserved a surprise box from Too Good to Go for $4.99. I ended up getting 3 boxes of Spicy Tuna rolls and 1 box of California... rolls. The server is very friendly. Read more
One of my top 3 restaurants in Austin. I love the build your own bowl with chicken, onions, white rice, with chili garlic and... ginger lime sauce. Their sushi is small and a ripoff, but who cares? The stir fry is incredible. Read more
