| - Since Mikado closed, Zen has become the 'go to' place for my mother if she's jonesing some food from the old country. After hearing so many good things about Zen, I decided to check it out myself on Friday.
It's in the middle of nowhere Scarborough so I would suggest driving here and not riding the Rocket. In a depressing strip mall, I missed it at first, but once I found it, appreciated that there's a parking lot. The inside of this place is very small and cozy so a reservation is a must! The menu is extensive, from (legit) sushi to other Japanese dishes, including donburi's (rice bowls), tempura, and curry. I had the Chicken Katsu Don and it was pretty tasty. The Mandarin Pie for dessert seemed like a good choice, but it was quite mediocre so I would suggest skipping it. My mother ordered sushi and she had nothing, but praise to say.
Good for: lunch, dinner, Japanese
NB - Reservations are a must !
