"Nestled in the corner of an old warehouse in the North Loop, the ambiance at Zen Box Izakaya still manages to be bright, warm, and friendly — it’s the perfect place to grab a drink and a meal before a show at the Guthrie Theater just across the street. Don’t miss the kimchi ramen, which boasts chewy, tender noodles and kimchi simmered in bone broth and draped in rich slices of pork chashu." - Justine Jones, Julie Zhou, Eater Staff
