Reviews for ZEN Ramen & Sushi Burrito in Lakewood, WA
The same person on the register is also, serving, preparing takeout orders and answering the phone. With all that going on... things were running slow and line was backed up. My order was completely wrong. I ordered the pop rock shrimp sushi burrito butonly received the pop rock shrimp, also ordered the chicken katsu dupbap but got a the katsu ramen. If you're coming between thehours of 1700 or later I would recommend ordering takeout. The place is clean, music is not too loud, lighting is dim andoverall display of menus is so helpful. I love the variety of seating arrangements. If you're looking for real authentic Sushithis shouldn't be your first choice. But if you are looking for some good ramen and a different style of sushi (sushi burritos)then I'd definitely recommend. Read more
Very interesting interior, has a lot of Naruto's pictures and paintings. Order at counter, but dine in, typical Japanese Ramen... menu, they did not have any Karaage, which my wife wanted to eat, she thought it was the fried chicken, but it was actuallychicken katsu, we also ordered pot stickers and I had the Tonkasu Ramen, all was ????.

I came in here today to dine with a friend. Apparently we came to the wrong zen Ramen place but I decided to be optimistic and... give it a shot anyway. It was a bit too overpriced for the quality of the food we were served. The Tonkotso Noodle was not hot.The egg was almost cooked all the way but it was tasty regardless. The pork bun was dry and chewy and it didn?t leave a goodimpression. The spicy tuna nacho poke was a joke. The tuna was frozen and the tomato that were cut into it made it theconsistency of the bite a bit off. The jalapeños looked like 7/11 jalapeños that were sitting out the whole day and was justtossed into it. No taste. Very underwhelming especially for that cost. However the only redeeming quality was the chips. Thesushi burrito,the firecracker, was good. I think that was the best dish. However it was mostly crab filling and not enoughtuna. After we ordered, I asked for my receipt and the guy asked if I needed it. Of course I needed it, I asked for it. Ithought they were going to deliver it to the table but it never came. I wouldn?t come here anymore. However I think I added astar because of the aesthetic and the fact their bathroom was spotless. Please try another branch. Read more
Fun little ramen spot. It has a cute anime theme throughout. Good amount of options to pick from. We had 2 ramen bowls, a poke... bowl, a sushi burrito, and gyoza. Staff were super nice and friendly. Service was quick as it was only about 10 min to get ourorder with a full restaurant. Highly recommend Read more
I was drawn in by naruto themed ramen restaurant as I imagine everyone is there. Removing the art from the experience this place... looked like they had a budget of $200 to build this place. I dont get the theme in this location as it didn't make me feel likeI was eating at the same place as naruto or naruto could walk through the door at any moment. It just made me feel I was on aconstruction site turned restaurant. Their ramen was well portion however the noodles tasted alittle under cooked but overalltasted fine. In total I spent around $50 for 2 pork buns that looked more mini pork gyros 2 bowls and 2 drink so it's alittlepricey. But I can't get passed the uncomfortable seats (plywood) and just overall theme. I wish it looked more estheticallypleasing and my noodles cooked alittle longer. I wouldn't feel so ripped off otherwise. I didn't have to much interaction withthe staff they seem friendly. But it also doesn't make sense the the menu is behind you when you walk in and get directed toturn around and stand in front of or next to the door to figure out what you want. This place makes so sense. I'd recommend youguys renovate. I don't need to feel like I'm eating ramen with naruto but at least not eating in the back room at a Lowe's. Read more
Pretty good service but lack luster ramen. Wasn't the hottest but the noodles were okay. It had Naruto on the walls though and... that was so cool. Read more
Cool place to go with friends if you love Naruto. I?ve been here a few times and have enjoyed every sushi burrito I?ve tried. I... was surprisingly impressed by the popcorn shrimp! If you?re ordering for multiple people, I will say the bill goes up quick butstill a good place to come try if you haven?t. Read more
Love their sushi burritos and the pop rock shrimp dish! The restaurant interior is fun and all three times we had food to go,... the wait wasn?t too long. This has been our go to place for sushi burritos. The firecracker sushi burrito is really good, aswell as the spicy tuna nacho poke. The tonkotsu zen ramen is alright - tastes like standard tonkotsu ramen, not sure if there?san option to choose salt level. Overall great restaurant to go to! Read more
