Editorial Review for Zen Japanese Grill & Sushi Bar – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
Government Center workers with a hankering for sushi fill Zen's two levels to sample from a lengthy menu. Offbeat offerings include hamachi torch maki and spicy salmon salad hand rolls. Traditional Japanese items (noodle soups, teriyaki, tonkatsu) are also served. Hands-on diners can prepare their own entrees on a sizzling stone grill. Solo diners should stick to the ground level, with its sushi bar and TV, instead of the dated upstairs dining room.

I was impressed with their presentation and quality in food the first time I went there with my husband. We ordered a few maki and sashimi for appt.and for our main course we got the Seabass and Zen fried rice. I hae to say when they bought out the seabass and fried rice we were shocked. The presentation was so stunning! not to the mention the seabass was perfect. It jus melted in my mouth. So we were craving for the wonderful food we had last month and decided to go back last week and i have to say we were very disappointed! I of course ordered the Seabass again and I have to say it was not good. The seabass was over cooked, the edges was burnt, and the presentation was sloppy. Overall the whole meal was not as I expected. I thought I have found a place that has good sushi AND kitchen food but i was wrong. i guess i'll only go there when i only want sushi.

My sister and I choose Zen when we are craving delicious, dependable sushi. It is reasonably priced for sushi, and always hits the spot! We love the Crazy Maki and the Spicy Tuna and Spicy Salmon rolls. The shumai (steamed) is a delicious and light appetizer... always a staple for us. Going back tonight... can't wait. I highly recommend Zen.
Pros: Crazy Maki, Shumai, Spicy Tuna and Spicy Salmon...
Cons: parking
