Zen Ramen and Bento: Reviews & Ratings
We ate here on a Thursday night and had the server's undivided attention. We all really enjoyed our meals. My son got the Chicken Katsu Bento Box and the chicken was amazing. He didn't care for the Corn and Edamame Salad, but my wife and I thought it was delicious. I had the Black Tonkatsu Ramen and the broth was nice and flavorful, and the toppings were all top notch. I also had a side of Kimchi and it was slightly spicy with just the right amount of sour. The best dish any of us ordered was my wife's Butter Shoyu ramen with Beef Bulgogi. The sauce was amazing with a great blend of brown butter and soy sauce. If we ever come back to Dahlonega, I know what I'll order!
Fabulous food and service- great spring rolls, green tea, lavender boba tea, yummy! Ramen with pork was delicious- rich broth and flavorful- ample servings. Had to bring some home. Highly recommended!
Wow... just... WOW!!! This place is very exquisite!! This place definitely follows the Miyagi-do way!
Delicious- everything was hot and fresh!! The chef came to check-in and see how our meal was. Cool place. I'll be back!
The food was good. I got the bulgolgi beef ramen. It wasn't the best ramen I've experienced, but it was decent. The beef was not as tender/didn't have that bulgolgi flavor I was looking for but the broth was yummy. The fried potstickers and egg rolls were really great. I did try my friend's bento box with the shrimp and it was fantastic! Would probably get that next time. Service was fast and the place itself was cozy and inviting!
The food was great. The waitstaff couldn't have been nicer. We sat outside and they were very attentive . Worth a try !
First time experience was excellent. Had one of their unique ramen dishes for lunch. Also had a Thai boba tea. Outstanding!! Service was great and the chef/owner was a very pleasant person to meet! I strongly recommend this restaurant!!
We were sitting at the coffee shop next door to Zen Ramen and Bento in Dahlonega smelling these amazing aromas. We decided to go and try a bowl of Ramen. People, go now and treat yourself to delishness! Abby was our server and even though we were outside, she was very attentive. The chef and owner, Mr. Tom, came out and checked on us twice, who does that? Our food was hot, full of flavor, and there was plenty. Get the combo you will not be sorry with your choice. I got the chicken karage and the beef bulgogi. My friend got the spring rolls and Shoyu butter chicken. Oh my yum!!
