BLEE-AACCHH. – Sorry, 'healthy'? Would a place that charges extra for 'white meat' instead of 'dark meat' (why not use *all* white to begin with? McDonald's faces the same dilemma as well), for brown rice instead white (again why make a distinction this way?), so that a TINY bowl of something I can easily (ie under 10 mins) whip up at home with 3 ingredients ends up costing $8+...Thanks, but No thanks. I gander in terms of *strictly* portion control, it IS healthy (fasting *has* been scientifically corroborated to lengthen l... read more

HAIR IN MY FOOD? WHAT? – So I have never left a review for anything I just either dont think it was that bad or that good to go through the trouble. But I thought people should know what they are getting themselves into when they eat at Zen. I understand that somethings are fluke they happen to people sometimes but i dont think this is the case. I tried Zen yesterday not really expecting anything great, just cheap and fast. I am not a good food critic I dont really care as long as it isnt that bad but even looking at the sus... read more

Yum! Yum! Teriyaki – I love this place! The staff is always super friendly, the atmosphere is great and the food is consistently good. I haven't had the sushi, but the teriyaki chicken is great!

Best light fast food anywhere in Austin – My husband and I eat at the Anderson Lane location at least once a week and are never disappointed. The food is great and the service is terriffic. Warning, lunch time is hectic, so call ahead if you are in a big hurry. Our favorites are the Spicy Chicken (substitute white meat & brown rice & add broccoli) the Bodhi Bowl, 7 Samauri BBQ and the Chicken Chop Salad (sub the ginger dressing if you are watching your weight). No the sushi is not the quality of some of the more expensive re... read more

The prompt service, resonable menu and light options combine the best of fast-food and sit-down dining. – In Short A cool, simple interior makes Zen a nice place to sit and linger. Avocado-green walls, reed mats suspended from the ceiling, inventive halogen lights and utilitarian stools and tables are bolted to the floor. Young folks on a budget usually populate the place, but those who appreciate good food and fast service have also discovered it. Sushi rolls are super-cheap, as are dishes like sesame soba noodle salad--chi... read more

User review by mediums – Service is friendly, the food is fine and arrives quickely. It's nice to have some healthy options such as brown rice. I've found the meals to be somewhat inconsistent, and the noodles are especially risky because they can be overcooked and mushy or inedibly undercooked. My main problem with this place is the lack of cleanliness. Even on an off-hour, every single table needs wiping.

Rude, botched service, sub par food. – Yeah, the food is cheap, but it isn't even very good for the price. Worse is the service. Nothing but bad attitude dripping from the guy at the counter taking our order - rude and surly. To top it off, he botched the order, leaving out food that was charged and on the ticket. His manager tried to pass it off, saying "we must have been busy." No, you weren't. We were the only people at the counter. Your staff apparently can't get the two essential elements of service right - delivering t... read more
