From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was calm, inviting, and beautifully put together!
The food was delicious as well you can truly taste the care and creativity in each bite.
But what made our first experience truly special was our incredible server, Dora. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.
Dora was warm, professional, and genuinely cared about our experience. I had three kids under 4 with me so she made us feel right at home!
If you’re looking for a place that combines amazing food with top-notch service, Zen Kitchen is it. And if you’re lucky enough to have Dora as your server, you’re in for an exceptional dining experience!

Our server was knowledgeable and very personable. We relied completely on her recommendations. My husband said The Triton Sushi was the best sushi he had ever had the pleasure of eating. I ordered the Crab Ragoon and it was much different than any I've eaten. It actually had real crab meat, not the fake stuff! I wish I had ordered some to bring home! Yummmmmie! For Entree I had the coconut shrimp curry and it was out of this world. The manager said she ate it twice a week and I could too. My husband said the lo mein was superb. The drinks could not have been better. We had a black russian and a long island ice tea. You could tell everything was quality and served with the customer's pleasure of utmost importance. Oh I forgot to mention our fabulous dessert, the DELIOUS carrot cake was Amazing! Thank you Zen Kitchen & Bar for an amazing 1st dining experience at your restaurant.

This is the top restaurant in this area! A favorite or ours for sure. Amazing menu. You will not find a better Butter Chicken on the west coast of Florida and I have tried many. Great selection of wines and with absolutely reasonable wine prices. No price gouging at this restaurant. Great beer on tap selection too. The food here is just delicious and high quality. The atmosphere inside is really nice, cosy and elegant at the same time. The staff are top notch 10/10!

I love the bar at Zen Kitchen and Bar located in beautiful downtown New Port Richey—especially when Stephanie is working. She's a knowledgeable and attentive bartender who always makes the experience better. One of the coolest things about Stephanie is her personalized cocktail menu that she puts together each season. Her new fall menu just came out and it’s absolutely delicious. Definitely worth checking out while it’s still available!
You can find Stephanie behind the bar at Zen, Tuesday through Friday from 12–4 PM. Her drinks and good energy make it well worth the visit.

The waitress name Robin was so extremely rude!! We have been here many times and never experienced such a negative attitude from the minute we sat down. She said move your stuff so I can wipe the table didn’t even introduce herself and we asked her for water for our dogs which it is a dog friendly restaurant if you sit outside and she said do you want me to put your menus down first or no? This server needs to be spoken to or our business along with many friends who live locally will no longer dine at this establishment.
