Zento in München

Very fresh food and very friendly staff. We ordered two rolls and the bluefin tuna sashimi. And very good.

Very good food: friendly and inexpensive

That was really tasty and we would love to come back. Attentive staff, nice ambience and great food are often not a given. But in the Zento everything is there and there is nothing to complain about. Keep it up, dear Zento team!

Staff friendly and polite food is top price justified

We had a nice evening, but we would like to have a little more choice on the menu.

Ate very well. Unfortunately the table is limited to 2 hours, service was served after an hour. For me it was very crowded in the restaurant and the waiter kept bumping into me. Eating again was excellent!

We ate zento tempura , zento special rolls, ebu tempura maki and surf&turf. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture - that means the foods were delicious! There are only few things that I can criticize: makis were sooo small and the cocktail prices were pricey. The service was fast, I think. We waited for like 15 minutes even tough we ordered too many things The interior was cozy and beautiful, but I think the spaces between the tables need to be wider. The staff were very polite and attentive (but not in an annoying way)

We had a really great evening here with great food! Highly recommended!

Stupid when you speak the same language. Everything's actually fine, but well... less complaining about the guests' tips :)

The sushi was delicious, and the mochi for dessert was also a great choice. The service was excellent—attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, perfect for a lovely evening.

Excellent cake. The menu is highly recommended. Already enjoyed three times. Very varied.

Great food for not too much money! The food is authentic Asian food. Great variety of dishes. They also have a lot of vegetarian dishes. Definitely worth a try - It‘s not immediately at the city centre but a short walk from Odeonsplatz. It‘s possible to make a reservation online and they accept cards (no american express). Unfortunately, the service was not top notch - Otherwise it would be a 5/5.

Great service, nice atmosphere, the food was delicious! We had udon, salmon medium rare (highly recommended!) and mango cream. We'll definitely be back!

Super delicious sushi...nice service...nice location!

First of all, yes, it is a bit tight at some tables. We were lucky enough to get the stand-alone table on the wall between the stairs and the bar, which was very pleasant. When we were there (8 p.m.) it was full and unfortunately very loud, one gentleman in particular said he constantly had to drown out everyone else, but the restaurant can't do anything about that. Although... maybe you could kindly point out not to shout like that. But well, the background noise here is probably never very quiet. Everyone in service was very nice and friendly. The food was served in a reasonable time. For the starter: The ceviche is a dream, the summer rolls are also very good, everything is beautifully prepared and tastes great. The main course, surf and turf, was perfect except for the shrimp that was fried a little too long. The other main course sushi with salmon tartare and sashimi were perfect. All in all worth the money.

Great service and delicious food! Online reservations on the homepage work quickly and perfectly!

The food is ok. nice presentation and arrived quickly. Service is average to poor. Plates were not cleared and main courses were already brought. We were allowed to refill the wine ourselves and the beer for the aperitif was still on the table at the end...so no problem. But the cheekiness of the waiter as to why I didn't give a tip was too much. He also came with the condition of his employment that he had to pay commission for the table of 2% and that he was used to getting tips. Well, then work on how real service works and then you'll get something.

We extended the time window of 2 hours for 4 people by another 2. They don't like that at all, even though it is offered as possible. Way too many places. When it's busy, it's not so great to sit on your neighbor's lap. Overall, a recommendation if you deduct these points.

Super delicious Tonkotsu Ramen!

The food here tasted very good! Sushi was very tasty and fresh and the mochi ice cream was also very good. The service was very nice and helpful. The atmosphere inside was very nice.

It was great and tasty, great service too

For a restaurant with above average prices, the service was very poor. You had to constantly bend over when the waiter served food because the restaurant was too narrow. Keller always leaned close to us customers (because the restaurant was loud) and it's not professional. In addition, upon arrival we were repeatedly told that you could only reserve the table for 2.5 hours. It was a birthday and we called in advance to see if the cake could be served, which was answered in the affirmative. Only when it was asked that the cake should be reserved was it said that cutlery and serving costs €4/P.

Everything was tasty and satisfying, thank you)

The food is pretty good and the staff is enthusiastic.

Very tasty and recommended. Ambience is nice, but everything is quite cramped

First time trying sushi in munich, such beautiful restaurant with cozy atmosphere the staff were very friendly and welcoming the sushi was delicious my husband had a very tasty udu with chicken but the prices were a little bit expensive (don't really know the range of prices of sushi around here) the restaurant is busy so i recommended a reservation before coming to the place

There were 5 of us in total and no one thought it was great. When making the reservation I stated that we would like a somewhat quiet place. However, we were squeezed in right at the front door. Then the pressure was immediately built up and they said the table was only for 2 hours. The starter was okay, but the main course had no price/performance ratio. The food really wasn't of high quality, although you would expect this given the prices quoted. Sushi is far too expensive for this quality - loveless. Toro, which is supposed to be particularly tender, had a fibrous piece in it, which is absurd for the price. It was very loud and the service was slow. Conclusion, it was a very expensive evening with food that I could get in every corner. Too bad.

We reserved from 1800 to 2000 a bill of 250 euros and we were kicked out at 1958

I have to say that the food is really very good and the service is very nice and helpful. What really detracts from the review is that after 2 hours you are politely asked to vacate your seat, as there is no time left for dessert or a glass of wine after your meal. It takes about an hour for the food to arrive. This is really tight. Unfortunately, you are not made aware of the time limit when making your reservation, at least not if you do it by phone. That's really a shame.

For dinner we ordered Chicken Tempura and Big Ebi Tempura, which were very tasty and also very large in size in my opinion, and for drinks we had one with pineapple and one with lime (unfortunately I didn't remember the names). It took a little longer for the drinks to arrive, but that was made up for by the food coming shortly afterwards. It was beautifully prepared so that it was enough for a nice photo. The waiters were very friendly and were able to accommodate us spontaneously, which I really liked. In terms of ambience I thought it was great, great selection of music playing in the background, interior design of the restaurant and also from the outside when looking at Zento. This restaurant was worth a visit and I can only recommend it.

Very tasty sushi restaurant, nice service, nice ambience. We always enjoy coming back when we are in Munich.

“Unusual appetizers, excellent sushi and great service!” We were impressed by the Zento restaurant! The unusual starters are creative and a highlight in terms of taste. The sushi is fresh, delicious and perfectly prepared - a real pleasure. The service was friendly, attentive and rounded off the evening perfectly. We will definitely come back and can recommend Zento to anyone who values ​​high-quality cuisine and a pleasant atmosphere!

My rating applies to the lunch menu. The prices are fair, there is a good selection of bowls, sushi and warm dishes. Everything tastes good, the portions are right. It's always full and the tables are a bit crowded.

Need a reservation, dinner was delicious, interior was too small and crowded but the atmosphere feels good.

Delicious sushi especially the special rolls and fried ones - price corresponds to taste and quality. Overall good, friendly service. But the seating is sometimes very narrow and there is little space for neighboring tables, so you tend to get bumped into when you walk past.

I find it uncomfortable that you only get the table for two hours but then have to wait a long time for the food. Food itself was very good. We were brought the wrong food, but after complaining, the right food came quickly. Both meals were included in the final bill, and here too we had to complain again. Too much stress for a cozy dinner...

I was there with my mom in the evening and I have to say that it was really really tasty. I had a tempura roll with salmon and salmon maki. It was a dream. Top service and everyone is very nice. Prices are a bit high, but normal for Munich and absolutely realistic given the delicious food! Inside it is very well furnished and beautifully decorated. But not too much either. ;-) Tables are very close to each other and sometimes it is very loud because there is a lot going on. I therefore recommend making reservations. But you can easily book online. Also great! P.S. You can pay by card. All around a great restaurant!

I went to this great restaurant this evening. As a starter I ordered a mixed tartare and a ceviche salad. Then I ordered Zento Tempura and Alaska Sushi. For dessert I had a mochi selection. Dinner was fantastic, all courses were truly delicious and made with fresh and well prepared ingredients. All dishes were elegantly and delicately presented. I highly recommend a visit and a meal at Zento!!!!

We recently went to Zento for the first time and were absolutely thrilled. The ambience has nothing to do with the typical Asian restaurant, very stylish and modern. The food was to die for, we each had a starter of VEGI GYOZA and vegetable rolls with peanut sauce. For the main course we had sushi with flambéed tuna, which was really amazing. Everything is super fresh and tastes a thousand times better than sushi from another store. We also had a glass of wine, which was also very nice. All in all, a wonderful evening, only the table seating being a bit too narrow and the time slot for a reservation of 2 hours are not a flaw, but you have to know! Thank you very much, we will be back very soon.

A great experience for my family, I found the restaurant very meticulous in terms of service and food quality, completely ensuring food safety. Everyone should visit the restaurant to be able to use the restaurant's good services.

Delicious and high quality food, very crowded and difficult to keep a conversation as it’s too full. We recommend to make a booking, it’s one of the best I have tried lately.

I have visited many sushi restaurants, but this is where you can find the best sushi ingredients!

The food was very tasty, was there in two days in a row, super nice staff Price performance is also good

Very chic restaurant with a great selection. Unfortunately, some of our sushi was forgotten or brought to the table incorrectly. I really wanted to try the ramen, but then I strongly considered giving it back. On my next visit I would order something else. Overall, value for money wasn't right for me.

Very good food, delicately seasoned. The service is very friendly. Very good ambience - the conversation isn't drowned out by music that's too loud.

The shop in terms of decoration and atmosphere was very nice, the staff very kind and helpful. As for the food, it was average for its prices.

Very narrow tables 20 minutes wait until the waiter came 2 hour slots, after which you are automatically given the bill and told that other people are already waiting

The food, in our case sushi and dessert, was very tasty, the service was very nice and attentive. I would recommend a reservation

Service urgently needs training, food at the table before the drinks, then the empty plates were left on the table for half an hour, but we didn't have anything to drink anymore, no wine service the whole evening. Food ok, definitely nothing special, far away from Japanese cuisine… Ambiance: The seating is a little closer and you would be sitting on the lap of the person sitting next to you

Good restaurant, was tasty, fast and friendly.

The food was very delicious and we were served very quickly after ordering.

Great food and nice service. Food is really served like in the photos!

We were really unhappy with everything. Especially with the service 1. the prices are incredibly expensive, €91 in total for a starter, two main courses and 2 soft drinks each. 2. the portions are TINY 3. the sushi was marketed as a chef recommendation or chef idea - I imagined something fancy. In the end I got this platter for 35 euros, salmon maki, 2 nigiri and something else with chicken and salmon. I could have ordered something normal and didn't need a boss's recommendation 😂 4. the steak was almost 40€ for 4 pieces of meat 5. the ceviche was tasteless and little fish in it. And now comes the best part, which is why I'm writing this review. At the end, when we wanted to pay, I told the waiter to pay 92€ - 1 euro tip because the service really wasn't good, it wasn't friendly or anything and since the prices are ridiculous anyway, I wouldn't have given a tip at all. But okay, the boy suddenly said on his device it said a 5% tip and whether I wanted to give €4.30. What the ?????? You don't ask something like that, especially with the expensive prices and the poor service. I'm really so disappointed with this restaurant visit, especially because it was my birthday.

Spent a day walking around the city center... came upon this place and decided to give it a try. Food was good but not what I usually expected. Everything was on the salty side.

The restaurant completely convinced me. The atmosphere was pleasant and authentic, the service friendly and attentive. The sushi in particular was excellent – ​​fresh and tasty. It's definitely worth a visit, I'd love to come back!

We had a great time and the service was pretty good. The fish was a bit fishy, but it was good. We also thought the sushis and sashimis were just to big and difficult to eat, something more delicate could have made the change for us. But overall, great location, great wine, great service.

We went to Zento as a couple on a Saturday evening. Basically a nice atmosphere, but the tables were very narrow and close to each other - that was too much for us... 3 stars The service was initially very fast, almost too fast (food came one after the other, no chance of relaxed conversation between courses). As the progress progressed, the waiter was hardly seen again - presumably the time throughput is in the foreground and he is hoping for a quick "departure"? 3 stars The food was good, with appropriate quality. On the other hand, it wasn't very good or even outstanding, but the flavors weren't coordinated well enough (and too many unnecessary sauces on the sushi). Still 4 stars. All in all, a nice evening, but one that doesn't warrant a repeat.

The Japanese restaurant we used to love no longer exists, so we looked for something new and found a great restaurant. We'll definitely come back and try the other delicious-sounding dishes that we couldn't manage. We were very satisfied.

The food was delicious, well prepared and the service was really courteous.

Very nice sushi place, friendly and efficient staff

We have to shout to communicate with friends, otherwise we're out of luck with seats

I liked everything - from basic rolls to more sophisticated dishes. Definitely coming again

The food is good, especially the starters Main courses okay to good, a bit too experimental but okay. The shop and the furnishings are nice, but much too narrow! Why do you put such wide chairs at the tables if you as a service employee can no longer get through to provide decent service??? So everything looks good, but it doesn't make any sense. But that was the smallest problem that the service employee in charge had that evening... Everything that could have gone wrong happened that evening. A really embarrassing idea!!! It shouldn't be possible at such a price level. And then there is no contact person present to take responsibility Simply weak! Not a second time sorry. The three stars are only for the starters.

Not the best thing I've ever eaten but still very good👌

Food was delicious, no question. I was there on Saturday and it was very loud. I barely heard my partner.

Great meal, friendly and great service, nice atmosphere

Delicious, delicious, delicious and a top authentic atmosphere

Very tasty sushi!! The waiters were also really friendly. I'd love to come back!

Lackluster experience. We waited over 1h10!! for our dish, and when my "sushi surprise" arrived, I was quite disappointed to see that it was a set 8 small makis, 2 Nigiri and 8 other rolls. Quite the selection for 35€... Overall a disappointing birthday dinner.

I was so excited to eat here because as someone with celiac disease I appreciate the menu with the great allergen info, especially for a Japanese restaurant. Happily made a reservation, arrived and unfortunately had to leave before even ordering. This space is so incredibly crammed, tight and loud that it was simply unbearable. The tables are insanely close together and unfortunately we were placed at a middle table, completely sandwiched between the people next to us and behind me. Every other minute someone bumped into my chair (including the waiter) or I had to move the chair to make way for someone. This is completely unacceptable for a restaurant of this price category. If you charge like a fine dining restaurant, I‘d expect the atmosphere to match, not a panic attack inside a sardine tin. This was such a huge letdown :(

Hugely disappointing for such an expensive restaurant. We were packed in like sardines with no personal space. After waiting more than 10 minutes, we were only handed menus, with no service or acknowledgment before that. We decided to leave—definitely not worth the premium prices.

Sushi is fresh and tasty but super small portions and very expensive. It's so not enough as if sushi is an appetiser :// Also it takes unbelievably long to bring your food.

We had a lovely evening at Zento. The food was very tasty and tastefully prepared. The service was very courteous and... attentive. The atmosphere is actually cozy, but unfortunately it is a bit noisy in the restaurant, which could probably be due to the smooth walls. Nevertheless, we would love to come back! Highly recommended!

The portion size is good, but I wasn't impressed with the taste.

Great food and cool vibe, recommended!

The Mushi soup was ok but too small and not that good. 12 euros for ONE shrimp and some mushrooms. I'm disappointed.

The restaurant is cozy. The sushi and the staff were OK.

Very tasty frame soup and sushi!

i dont like the bartender guy, the drink came out lately and the food is not that delicious :)) I don’t know how they can have 4,7 stars rating like this

I ate here at the weekend, the food was ok, not bad not good, the bar was so terrible, the guy at the bar wasn't even nice to the customers at all

The attitude towards customers is awful. They are trying to hid the bill and conceal the tips which they include in the bill without asking. They are trying to take the cache and not giving full rest. More on that - they are disputing with google reviews and request cancelling our feedback with low rating, not immediately, but after some period of time, when the visitors potentially won't take any appeal actions. Definitely not recommending!

Some of the food was good. Unfortunately the price-performance ratio is not right. Better go somewhere else. The sushi surprise is a disappointment for me as a nigiri.

Food was good. Unfortunately, the payment process spoiled the experience. In addition to the fact that if you pay by card you have to choose the amount of the tip (which is now more common), the waiter asked really cheekily when we wanted to pay together: Do you also pay the tip together? I find this rude, as this is a reward for good service and should not be expected to be so rude. Unfortunately it spoiled the impression.

Very good food and location. Best sushi I had here.

I ordered a Rahmen soup and tea. Nothing special, the soup was ok. Service is good, the place is nice inside, beautiful decoration.

Been there for a business lunch, highly recommended.

Perfect service, perfect food, perfect atmosphere!

Small, cozy restaurant with surprising sushi variations. Of course there are also the classics. We were lucky to get a table, the restaurant was very busy. Very extensive but sometimes creative teriyaki and sushi dishes. We then chose classics. The tuna tartare was wonderful and the sushi (ebi tempura + inside-out mango/salmon) was great too. Everything is very fresh, tasty and beautifully presented. If we come to Munich again, we will be happy to come back.

You should be able to work with criticism and not ask Google to send you an email to remove the negative review. My rating is based on a truthful experience in your restaurant so here again... Our visit to the Zento, This is an upscale Asian restaurant in Macvorstadt, but given the prices and especially the not exactly cheap wine prices, as a guest I expect not only the cuisine but also the service to be professional and qualified. The wrong wine was brought three times, then the glasses were almost full, even though I said: Please keep it cool! Ordered a starter, but only three out of four dishes came and one had to watch, that's just not possible. And please don't use the excuse again that we haven't had any staff since the Corona pandemic, I can't hear that anymore!!! Then you have to work as a management team or train the service staff a little or at least explain the wine list It was annoying to have spent so much money on an evening that unfortunately we all had imagined differently

Great sushi restaurant near Odeon Square. The ambience was great. Sushi was extremely tasty, the softshell crab was highly recommended. The drinks were excellent and were mixed individually. Unfortunately the toilets weren't that clean. Otherwise we were completely satisfied.

Very good food, primary sushi. Not a lot of other options. Service friendly and fast. A bit too warm inside, the small tower fan did little to help. Quite expensive, but portions are generous.

Top food, top service… absolutely recommended 😊

Very nice restaurant and the staff is super nice and funny, the food is super delicious 🥰

Fabulous Japanese restaurant, with very nice service and a delicious menu. I can only warmly recommend it.

The best Japanese restaurant I've been to in a long time

Loved this sushi place with extra. $$$

Too expensive for what was offered. Clearly overpriced.

I would like to express my disappointment about my visit to the Sushi Zento restaurant on August 12th. to express. When I arrived I was not greeted appropriately and immediately felt uncomfortable. The greeting from your staff was rude and distant, creating an unpleasant atmosphere. The way the staff treated guests was unprofessional and disrespectful. Instead of our needs being considered, we were ignored and our concerns were dismissed. What was particularly disappointing was that I felt like the staff were making fun of us, which is completely unacceptable. The combination of poor reception, unfriendly treatment and disrespectful behavior resulted in a very disappointing experience on my birthday. I ask that you take steps to ensure that your staff is properly trained and treats guests with respect. I intensively communicated my points for at least 5 minutes, but the waitress was unwilling to find a solution or apologize for this major inconvenience. I hope that you will take my complaint seriously and take the necessary steps to improve the quality of your customer service.

The vegetarian selection isn't huge, but what you get is very tasty and beautifully presented.

"I was really impressed by this Japanese restaurant! The sushi was fresh and delicious, especially the selection of sashimi was excellent. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, you immediately feel at home. The service was very friendly and attentive, and the food came quickly The ramen soup is also highly recommended - authentic and with a lot of taste. The prices are absolutely reasonable for the quality. Overall, a wonderful place to enjoy Japanese cuisine to the fullest. I'll definitely be back!"
