Zen Japanese & Oriental Restaurant in Southampton

Amazing food, great value and great tastes. Used a few times now and never been disappointed, delivery was quick and food was piping hot which was impressive seeing as we are the other side of town.

Very good food. Nice portion size and perfectly cooked rice. Katsu batter was a bit thick though.

For the five people we ordered for, only one fully enjoyed the food we ordered. The dishes were served in unmarked takeaway boxes so sharing out was a pain, the food had large portions but flavour was very lacking with tough beef and plain chicken. The only part I liked was the Char Siu Bao which unfortunately got my hopes up for the rest of the meal that left a lot to be wanted.

Best sushi in Southampton, all you can eat buffet is very good value. Favourite place to go out to eat for both my partner and I.

Been here twice now, for Valentines and for Sunday buffet. It's a very calm atmosphere, and the staff are nice and attentive. The food is of excellent quality, really delicious. The buffet is served straight from the kitchen as you order from the table, so you don't have to get up and pick from large crates of food that have been there all day (which is the case with a lot of buffet restaurants). That way the food is fresh and the hot food is truly hot. Slightly disappointed that buffet was not available on Valentines, as that was the only reason we went there, and we could only have the set menu, which was really pricey. They also add a 10% service charge to your bill. But the food was so good we had to come back anyway. I'd recommend the buffet any day.

Staff was very friendly. Even so they were under staffed for a Sunday night, 2 waiters to greet...seat...take orders...make the drinks themself...serve the food....clear table. I am myself a restaurant manager and this is not the right staff level. However they were really apologetic and friendly. I liked the buffet style order service. But I must say I have eaten better sushi, it lacked a bit of taste. The seaweed salad was amazing and so was the other hot food. And I am a big fan of mochi balls.

All you can eat buffet with a CATCH! The buffet menu which is not available online for a good reason! Over half of the food on the buffet menu actually have £1 to £2 supplement to pay for each dish, on top of the £21.50 + 10% service charge per person. That makes the buffet meal very expensive unless you just want to eat a lot of rice and some very basic sushi!! So don't get too excited about the "all you can eat" buffet!!

Clean and friendly, Sushi OK - but had more tasteful ones before. Prices reasonable. Pro: got a Miso soup for free, yet it was rather without any taste.

The sushi is lovely. Not the best I've had, but very good. Unfortunately there are things that detract from the food, and that is disappointing.The restaurant feels grimy. I might accept sticky tables in a pub, but in a restaurant you hope that they keep things cleaner. The prices are also pretty steep for what you get, something we were particularly surprised by given that it was lunchtime. This might have been ignored if the restaurant didn't also add a gratuity/tip to our order, and that could have been accepted if we had received good service.As it was, the service was slow and average, and the gratuity wasn't mandatory, however I paid it anyway and shall leave my indignation here.Be aware of the caveats and it's a fine spot for sushi.

Quality all you can eat sushi, really clean space, very good service. Although for the prices paid there should be more variety of sushi.
