Zen Box Izakaya - Beoordelingen

5 Stars and the reasons why. 1 Star = Location Nice little corner spot off Washington, close to the Gold Medal Park, Guthrie Theater, Stone Arch Bridge,

Having been favoriting ZBI for years, I can't believe I never actually left a reviewWell, that ends now! Zen Box is amazing.

Came in for the ramen but they were out of the broth! Noooooo well that was a bummer.. I got the Yakisoba with Chashu and my sister got the Salmon

Our family enjoyed the outdoor seating and the waiters did a great job of quickly pushing other tables in when it was raining out of the blue. We were under an...

Always good food with a nice presentation. We ate outside on a cozy early summer evening. We started by ordering mussels (not as spicy as shown and very good) a...

So happy we went here tonight. In town for a conference and went here as two vegans and an omni. Quite a few vegan options to chose from. I had the tofu donburi...

Wow. The Mapo tofu ramen was amazing. The tofu was seasoned so well and the noodles were great. It has eggplant and mushroom sauce that’s amazing. Would come ba...

Tons of vegan options, close to a lot of things downtown (we walked across the stone arch bridge to Aster Cafe for live music afterwards). Really cool vibes.

Was a stop while staying in downtown Minneapolis, and definitely didn’t regret it! While not fully vegan, there are plenty of good options in the appetizers and...

Yakisoba was sweet and well balanced flavor. Can add tofu for $3.50, and they give you a lot. Overall great! Mapo tofu was a bit disappointing. No detectable Sz...

Went right before close for the happy hour and had a great experience. Sat at the bar, got the spicy karaage, edamame and the mapo tofu ramen (which was brothle...

Before going to Minneapolis we had read a lot of positive reviews about this place so decided to check it out. we originally tried to go for lunch on Saturday b...

Unfortunately my food experience here was less than ideal. I personally wouldn’t call this place a traditional Japanese food place and more or an Americanized J...

Over priced and a 18% flat rate for a tip is crazy. And server was uncaring and gave off as if the guest were a bother.

We were visiting from out of town for the weekend. We were attracted to their menu listed online-but they only do hot dogs for Saturday lunch. $100 for two medi...

The dumplings and rice bowl were perfect. Great flavor! The server was good had a couple little issues but nothing worth writing home over. Nice place. One of t...

I moved to Minneapolis a month and a half ago and when I walk to work, I always go past this place and I was determined to try it soon. I got to go here for a l...

This is my favorite restaurant in the metro, I like to try different places all the time and now Zenbox has ruined that, I cannot see past this place . The flav...

I love this place more than oxygen. It reminds me so much of the little shops I'd visit in Japan. Is it Americanized? Sure. But the staff is always super friend...

We love the Ramen here. We drive 50 minutes for it. Having tried it around the country and different restaurants around the Twin Cities...it's hands down our fa...

First time here. Food was great. Service was quick and amazing. Food was timely and fresh.

Cozy dinner spot to hit on your way to a play at the Guthrie. Must try their short ribs and tonkotsu ramen.

The atmosphere here is amazing and one of the best I’ve seen! Food was great but the TacoYaki was a little doughy. The service was great especially for a busy F...

I will definitely be returning to this restaurant just to have their ramen again. It was incredibly tasty and delicious. I highly recommend it, especially for t...

This cozy restaurant offers a fantastic menu and a variety of drink options. The ramen is especially delicious. I recommend making a reservation in advance as t...

Potato salad is on point and authenthic. Yakisoba is okay, could use some torching to add some smokiness. Kimchi ramen is good but need more Kimchi. Not a lot o...

My review is based solely on the taste and not the store place dynamics. The people working there are friendly, and the place is clean. I ordered a smoked salmo...

Accidentally found this place to have dinner before a show at Guthries and loved it! VERY FRESH food, great taste, nice atmosphere with Japanese style decoratio...

Zen Box is a very casual restaurant with a good Japanese aesthetic and upbeat Japanese music. The gyoza and curry we had was pretty solid as was the Peach Chuha...

Really tasty food! Waiter was very friendly...we had the option of ordering on phone or with him which we did-easier. Only draw back to the night was our food w...

The atmosphere makes you feel like you 're at a large Japanese street stall, the food is easy to eat, affordable, and not so Wild that even a person with a limi...

We had teriyaki chicken and the ramen. Both very tasty. The brussels sprouts and gyoza were also very good. Great atmosphere here. Lunch bento box specials are...

Great energy and wonderful people working here. Food is tasty and creative.

Ramen was top notch. Enjoyed the variety of options.

I live around the block of Zen Box and it is a stone for if I have any form of hearty Asian dish. My partner and I usually start with a...

I really wanted to like this place more than I did. I came on a Tuesday night and the restaurant was pretty busy both inside and outside. The...

I was in Zen Box about 3 times in the last 2 years, and my new visit was at the end of March 2023 at 6:00. I ordered the Takoyaki $9.50...

If I could I would rate this place a 3.5. Not the greatest food ever but decent. We had the shoshito peppers, poke, and ramen. All good, nothing blew my socks o...

Made dinner reservations to make sure we had a table, as this place is pretty small but came highly recommended by a family member, so we stopped in during our...
