ZEN STREET

You get there and nobody greets you, no interpersonal communication at all and then you have to fill your own order on a kiosk… took my number and sat myself down. Ramen I ordered had two pieces of meat in it, stale mushrooms and broth was lacking any real flavor. For nearly $20 a bowl this place is NOT worth it.. gave it a second try after having another bad experience and yup still ???????? would not recommend.. Over rated hipster spot.

Great experience. I feel a little more hip and definitely better for having eaten a filling meal that was deliscious. They serve up some types of boba teas I have never been offered before. The one i had a was a but sweet and amazing. The place has a simple menu and from my experience it works well. Sticky buns were delightful when eaten fresh and hot as intended. The Miso noodle I had with pork comes with pickled egg was great. Felt like just the right size to be filling but not enough to make you feel uncomfortable. It was not busy time of day and the service was great. A great mix of friendly authentic and proficient. I saw this place in a book given to me by my real estate agent James Monks at Windemere Real Estate here in Riverside as a house warming gift. I can see myself coming back time and again to grab a quick lunch or early dinner here.

I've always passed this place hoping to try it and now I did ☺️. I went during a regular work day so it was empty when I arrived I was greeted by my host and she was so nice. She started me off by giving me Yuzu tea (so good). You are able to order from the table via QR code or on the kiosk. I ordered the tonkotsu with extra egg, seaweed and mushroom and it was delicious I also ended up taking tempura mushrooms and let me tell you it was so good! Will definitely go again and try new items. Recommend you order the Yuzu with butterfly pea flower so refreshing and good.
