This place is amazing. The food was very delicious. The to-go order i had placed was done very quickly. The to go bowls and boxes are well made, not cheap. 10/10 will be coming back for more.

What an incredible place. I’m sorry I’ve been driving right by it for months. My loss for sure. I caved in and went there for lunch. The service was fast. Was very clean with plenty of seating. The food is amazing and the presentation was beautiful. In fact, it was so great, I went back the next day. They did seem to get a little busy at lunch. We arrived at 11:45 am and lots of people were walking in at noon. Nobody waits very long. You order at the counter, then go get a table. They bring your food to you. I highly recommend this place!

Zen ramen is a delightful feast for the mouth, eyes, and ears! A beautifully remodeled restaurant charismatic artwork, soothing Lofi in the background, and the most creative use of OSB i've ever seen. Lots of food choices from Ramen, Poke bowls, to their special sushi Burritos. Zen Ramen hit the spot in many ways, fr9m the ceiling to my stomach! Operating since 1979, it's the best ramen in Shelton!

Impressive cute, trendy Japanese spot in Shelton. We stopped in on our way back from the Olympic forest for a nutritious delicious meal after being in the back country. It was surprisingly a lot of food ! The sushi burrito will fill you up with no sides. Washington Sushi Burrito - delish, would buy again, the outside wrap was a green crepe. I’ve never had a sushi burrito before but there was no seaweed, they used a crepe to hold it together instead. Zen Burrito - my bf got this one, he said it was good but too much crab salad, no rice. Wrapped in a pink crepe :) Burritos were served with Kewpie mayo & Spicy mayo (i think) Spicy Gyoza - yum!! 10/10 love that it was served with veggies Atmosphere - The seating area was really well done vibes, cute custom seating. The music was a liiiittle loud and the bathroom was oddly dark. Otherwise im so happy we have this local chain around the south sound and will totally try the other locations!

10 out of 10! COME AND EAT HERE! DELICIOUS, first time in this Zen at Shelton. In pictures "Pop Rock Sushi Burrito" and "JMT Ramen" Excellent place and atmosphere, feels really big, I did not expect that... judging it by the window MUST TRY the sushi burrito I ordered, I was amazing. It is very big and it will fill you up for sure. My wife ordered the ramen, very light spice, I tasted it, good choice too. Service was as expected or better said, desired...good, fast, with nice people, excellent crew here for sure

10/10 in every way. I love this spot. Every worker that has ever helped me is very kind. The atmosphere is amazing and the bathroom has a heated toilet seat. The food is huge portions and fair pricing for what you get. Chicken buns are good appetizer. The shrimp poke bowl is a must and the firecracker burrito is our fave burrito. Love love love this place! Got my mom hooked now too.
