ZEN Japanese Restaurant

"Located in a residential area, this restaurant is a firm favourite with fans of Japanese cuisine. In a pared-back Far Eastern-style setting, diners can look forward to a pleasantly lively atmosphere, as well as friendly and professional service with an authentic Japanese touch. It is clear that a well-coordinated team is at work here. Your options include gyoza, tempura, grilled and pan-fried dishes, udon, sushi and sashimi, plus a large omakase set menu." - Michelin Inspector

Visited Zen with my big family, 9 people in total. Our waiter took our order seriously and very friendly. We asked for kids first to be served and so he took kids order and came shortly after. Their Ebi Tempura rolls (10 pcs) is highly recommended! Sure thing we’ll get back whenever we visit Bonn again

Just amazing. Service the best I ever had since coming back from Japan. Authentic flair with all staff speaking Japanese and the fish quality and sushi overall just delicious. Highly recommend, thanks for having us!

Update: new location, just few steps from where it used to be. Bigger restaurant with larger capacity. The food is just as delicious and the service as friendly as always and even faster. Will keep coming back! I have not been to many sushi places in Cologne yet, but i have a strong feeling that this will be my favourite. The restaurant is small with limited tables so you have to make sure to get a reservation, specially on weekends. It is clean and with a cozy atmosphere. The food: the best tempura i have had. The batter was perfect. The rolls were all well executed, with a good balance of rice and fillings. The dessert which was a mango mousse was very original and delicious. The presentation of the food was simple but really appealing. I definitely would recommend the volcano rolls and the dragon ones i believe. It also has a good selection of drinks. Service: greeted by a warm welcome, you are served a hotel towel once you are seated and the service is just fast and friendly. No complaint. However if you choose to go, check the menu as this place is upscale; yet really worth it.

I cant believe this place is recommended on Michelin. Honestly I dont know if the german standards os sushi are these bad or its just the restaurant! Ordered the 10 sushi plate and none of them were good! You need to beg the waiter to come! Place is nice but definitely a bad experience
