Went for lunch and the service was really great and food was good too. This is a fully vegetarian restaurant. Portions are great and the presentation was exceptional. This restaurant is really clean and has a clean washroom. This place has fee parking. Highly recommend this place for all vegetarian lovers and will definitely return.

Delicious! Loved the restaurant setting. Very casual, homey (literally). If you go you'll know what I mean. I had the spicy tofu combo which came with salad, a side soup of choice (I picked veg wonton), purple rice and 2 triangles which is similar to a samosa. The only thing I wish was different is that we were not given plates and food was served in takeout containers. To some this could be a small picky thing but I've always preferred to eat on actual plates when dining in restaurants. Also, we were given water in paper cups and didn't receive tea. Found out we had to order that. Other than that, it was great and left with very full bellies. The flavour was wonderful right down to the broth of the soup. Will definitely be back the next time we are in Guelph again

The food was extremely salty and otherwise flavourless to the point that I couldn't eat more than a couple bites. Everything was served in takeout containers with plastic utensils, including the soup. One of the dishes ordered wasn't served. Communication regarding gluten-free dishes was unclear and inconsistent. The restaurant was in a beautiful old house though it was unkempt. When we complained about the food a very slight discount was offered, though the discount did not appear on the bill until we pointed it out. We dined at the London location many times and never had such an experience.

The food was great but the quantity is less when it compared to price but you can give a try

I visited Zen Gardens recently for dinner and was pleasantly surprised by the wide variety of menu options as well as the quality of the food. Upon arrival, I was promptly seated by a friendly and attentive staff member. My miso soup, dumplings, and veggie sushi platter arrived at my table quickly and tasted great. The restaurant itself is relatively small and there isn't a lot of available parking, but neither of these factors negatively affected my experience.

I think this is the only place on earth that has vegetarian ChickUn Balls. God bless them for that!

Terrible experience!My spicy eggplant literally only had 3 pieces of tofu in it... This was our first meal after 2 days so we were starving, yet my partner couldn't finish his dish because it was way too salty! I tried a bite and it was overwhelming. My partner ate maybe 3 bites of his food and we told the server MUTIPLE times we didn't want to take the leftovers home, it was way too salty, something was wrong with it, and that's why he barely ate any of it. Yet she still packaged it and tried to make us take it! So uncomfortable, she kept acting like she didn't know what I was saying. She kept saying she would give a small discount, but gave me the debit terminal with the original price. After confronting her she quickly updated the cost and walked away. Still paid $50 for the worst dining experience we ever had.All dishes (aside from the wonton soup) were lacking flavor and presentation. There's something off-putting about dining in and being served slop in plastic containers and eating burning hot soup with a plastic spoon... Very wasteful too.To make it worse, my partner called before we came in and asked if there are gluten free options, they said tell us what you want
