Zen is an amazingly different dining experience. I visited yesterday with my sister for an impromptu Saturday evening dinner. They kindly offered us a table from 6pm to 7.30pm which suited us fine, especially as we rang at just 5pm that same day asking for one. We struck it lucky as Zen is an extremely busy restaurant! The restaurant decor is spectacularly beautiful being a mix of modern and traditional Japanese design. Service was perfect and atmosphere buzzing, happy and friendly. Zen has some great Vegetarian dishes on the menu so we got stuck in and ordered asparagus sushi, tofu parcel sushi and aubergine tempura as a sharing starter. My main was Coconscious Curry a thick rich coconut cu...
Surprisingly for an Asian restaurant, there are only three vegetarian mains on the extensive menu. I asked the waiter if the vegetarian options contained dairy products. He went away and checked and came back to tell me I couldn’t have any of the mains on the menu as they all contained dairy products. There was even egg in the Morinaga tofu and mushroom dish although this isn’t stated on the menu. I was offered a vegetable stir-fry with teriyaki sauce, which wasn’t listed on the menu. There are a couple of presumably vegan starters, including asparagus sushi, edamame beans a black bean and water chestnut lettuce wrap. The food was OK, but nothing special. There are better Asian restaurants i...
Surprisingly for an Asian restaurant there are only three vegetarian netzens on the extensive menu. I asked the waiter whether the vegetarian options contain milk products. he went away and checked and came back to tell me that I couldn't have the main thing on the menu as they contained all milk products. there was even an egg in the morinaga tofu and mushroom shell, although this is not indicated on the menu. I was offered with Teriyaki sauce a vegetable tour guide that was not listed on the menu. there are some presumably vegan starters, including economical sushi, edamame drill a black bean and water chestnut salat wrap. eating was okay, but nothing special. there are better Asian restau...
fantastic ambiente and good eating! the sitting and the ambiente of zen are fantastic. it has these small Japanese artifacts on the walls and even 2 zashiki (traditional Japanese low seating order). there was a set menu option to choose from, which started one and one main with a drink for about £17. I ordered the sushi and maki rolll plate in starter, which was very good. plating was also well served on a wood panel. for the first time I decided to have the deen roast in orange sauce that was too sweet for my taste. I felt that the sweet one who drove orange over the whole dish. a bit tangig and chili would have been better! all in all...read more

not many vegan options, in which there was no vegan main course on the menu. the personal had however burst. they offered me a veggie teriyaki that was so delicious. While it would be nice to have some options, I did not go hungry. I went to celebrate my birthday and my friend asked if they could do something for what was vegan and they would drown on ice what I thought was a nice note. the cocktails were amazing
the food menu here is fantastic I could hardly decide what to order! there are 2 set menus that offer a great overview of the offer. we got menu a that had 4 courses for just £29.95pp and was stunning, the duck salad star was delicious and the coconut ice cream finished the meal perfectly. the cocktail menu was also great and very reasonable for the city center of belfast. we are already planning our next visit!
well, I am a great fan of Asian foods, so I came with some great expectations I am a little disappointed with curry I ordered lack of taste, but it looked beautiful. as an appetizer I had Japanese dumplings, which tasted as a polish with cauliflower, it was just in order. the service is nice, a bit busy, so you have to wait to order more drinks. I think I'll give them another chance.
not many vegan options here! pretty sure is the only teriyaki stir fry! from any reason they also make the tofu with ice? the touching frit was beautiful but! and it is a beautiful, cool restaurant. fab cocktails.

trendy, entertaining atmosphere. they made a stir fry sweet dish with white rice for me, as the vegetarian dishes on the menu are not vegan. friendly service.
Very expensive, offers staple Asian dishes with a Japanese twist (usually seaweed strips added in).
