About

Choose among three ramen bowls: the Forest Zen mushroom broth, balanced Zen shoyu, and creamy, spicy Kou Zen tantan; guests add the vegetable toppings themselves. The small dining room has a Buddhist-inspired feel and a communal table, and reviewers recommend reserving ahead to avoid a long wait.
