Best Chinese food I’ve had in a while. Also might be the best overall General Tso’s I’ve ever had. Premium, fresh ingredients. On point service. Was only about $10 more than another local place I tried that had incredibly inferior quality. Will be returning!

Just found Zen Chinese Bistro, by happenstance, and was impressed and hope others will find it and enjoy it as much as we did.

If you’re looking for gluten free Chinese food, look no further! We always hit up Zen when we are in Portland and it never disappoints! Great drinks as well!

Standout Chinese restaurant in Portland. The owner, Kamal, was very kind and let us dine in. They don’t offer much dine in since they can’t keep staff. We live about an hour away and needed a place to eat after the Christmas concert. My 95 year old grandmother had requested Chinese food that we could take to her, so we were glad to be able to takeaway from here.

I was recommended this place by a couple of my Uber passengers a while back and I am just getting around to trying it out.

Some of the freshest and most delicious Chinese food I’ve had in a long time. We got beef lo mein , pork fried rice and a pupu platter for 2, and it fed us for 2 meals!

We found Zen Chinese bistro due to a Groupon so we were pleasantly surprised to see how nice it was inside and how great the food was. The dumplings were absolutely delicious and the portions are huge you definitely get what you pay for and the service is fantastic as well. I would highly recommend going here even without a Groupon.
