Food was good as always but prices have gone through the roof. Most expensive "cheap" America Chines good in the Portland area. Won't be returning until prices come down.

I order from Zen often and always have great service. I usually place my order over the phone or by using their online menu website. The food is great and the employees are always really professional and friendly.

Food is fantastic and my favorite Chinese restaurant. The chicken wing is crispy and perfect. It is very flavorful. The hot and sour soup have balanced flavor. Recommend for friends? Yes!

The Crab Rangoon’s from the order were missing. If it’s possible to have someone get back to us that would be great. So I can get a refund for that particular item.

Although the food was good, the chef and host were not wearing masks/ face coverings. Will not be purchasing from again due to the risk of COVID-19. Really disappointing as I love this spot!

2 hours for delivery and cold. When I called 3o mins before it arrived they blamed bad weather (It's raining and 50 degrees) and traffic(There is very little in the middle of a pandemic) i'd hate to see how long and how cold it could get in normal times. Quality had gone down a bit since Covid started, but i let that slide. Done ordering from here because it's going real downhill real fast. For $60 i should have a pretty okay meal.

Awesome and tasty food! Good service! And for anyone who is celiac, it’s a pretty safe place to eat! My partner has severe celiac and he can eat this just fine, everything is labeled!

I ordered Kung Pao chicken with mild spice. I got Chicken with Vegetables instead. Surprise! It was decent but lacked seasoning and was covered with peanuts. May not return.

One star is probably aggregious but I waited almost an hour and they gave me white instead of brown rice, can't eat white rice due to blood sugar issues. I only had 3 items man and like literally a two minute drive from front door. C'mon guys. Probably just hangry but common.

Best Chinese in Portland. So close to the old Hu Shang, without being Hu Shang. Bit on the expensive side, but treat yourself. We do once a month! Delivered quick and HOT!

The food was wonderful, but the driver went to Portland Stillman St first and then came here. So it was cold. I know mistakes happen.
