  • And by "Vegetarian Restaurant" what they really mean is mostly vegan! Hoorah! My husband and I dined here last night to celebrate the new year. I was kind of hoping that they would have some mochi to celebrate, but alas they did not! Regardless, I had a really great time. The menu is extensive, maybe 12-15 pages even, and only a handful of those are not vegan. That is incredible for the Mississauga area. (Or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.) I guess I should tell you that my review might be slightly biased. (... Or perhaps I'm missing the point of giving you MY OPINION.) Based on my DINING experience, I feel that Zen Gardens should probably get four stars. The food was excellent, the service was good, but that extra fifth star comes from the fact that I could browse the entire menu and have almost anything I wanted. Anything. I felt so excited just being there. The seitan was delicious. I've never been so excited to try mock meats before! But then you set the dining experience aside, and you realize that Zen Gardens actually has MORE to offer than just a meal. They offer take-away (with a 10% discount on orders $20 or more) AND they offer an enormous selection of premium grade loose leaf tea. (I am currently sipping on the Juicy Peach Green Tea as I write this.) Careful, though, some of these teas cost a shiny penny. But remember that these are shipped directly from China or Taiwan and they are the real thing, so if you're a tea snob, or you've just come from a visit overseas, it's worth every penny. Okay, so aside from dining, take-away, and a tea selection- they also do tea ceremonies! I have yet to experience one so I can't comment too much on that- but the fact that they offer it is fantastic. So, when you look at the dining experience, the service, the food, the tea, etc, suddenly five stars doesn't seem like enough. Love Zen Gardens, am super impressed, and will DEFINITELY be returning. Disclaimer: I've been a vegetarian for the better part of five years and a few months ago my husband and I decided to remove dairy and all other animal protein from our diets, so this whole experience was very new to us. That being said, I've only ever tried a handful of "mock meats", and I'd certainly never had seitan or TVP.
