Nancy, the owner and our server is one of the kindest human beings I’ve met. She’s welcoming, gracious and an absolute gem of a human. The food they cook is fantastic! We ordered crab rangoon for an appetizer. They were light, fluffy and the filling generous and tasty. Our main dishes were the bun Bo hue and curry tom yum soup. Incredible flavors, fresh, loaded with veggies and the broths were out of this world. Tons of meat and sooooo good! I absolutely love everything about this restaurant and cannot recommend it enough. Don’t miss this amazing restaurant!

My fiance and I were visiting from Boston for our wedding and along the way we were craving some fresh and healthy asian food. We had the best service and food here! Everything was so fresh and the quality of the food was amazing. Service was excellent and very attentive! They’re the nicest people there. We’re excited to come visit MN again and next time bring our family and friends with us to enjoy such beautiful food! :) Thank you!

Love Zen Asia. My office is close by and I'm a once a weeker. Nancy and her husband who I haven't met, she runs the front, the floor, and he runs the kitchen, are amazing. Very wide range, wonderful egg rolls. I love pho, search out pho places when I travel for work, and theirs is at the top. I always love coming back from a work trip and telling Nancy that theirs is better. Savory and rich beef broth, great sides, perfectly seasoned - not too much. They also do really good curry and kung pao. Wonderful people and it shows in their food and ambiance.

The pho here was so good. I had it with spring rolls and that was enough for me. The portions were great! Also the taste was so fresh and the lady was recommending me other things to try for next time.
