Now & Zen

"So this was my first time dining in. The place was very small. It was packed when I was there. We had to order everything at once. We ordered way too much (1 giant roll, 3 regular rolls, and a bowl of spicy edamame). The sushi was good, but it took a while for us to get it. Portions were big. Plenty of Vegetarian options available on the menu. The giant rolls are HUGE. Overall dine-in experience was okay. Food was pretty good. Price was acceptable. We’ve ordered to-go sushi from there before and we didn’t like it. They were rude and I’m pretty sure they automatically threw a 20% tip on the bill. I didn’t appreciate that because I like to choose tip based off or performance, value, and kindness. All in all. It’s good, but you have to be in a good mood and ready for anything to come your way. I would return, especially when I get the sushi itch"

"Fabulous sushi joint with a great menu. Sushi portions were very large, though I recommend the Agedashi tofu as well as their ramen which was incredibly flavorful. I would also recommend a reservation, this place is good and can get very busy."

"Tucked away just off of the Historic Downton Mall, Now & Zen transcends the ordinary with its exquisite amalgamation of refined Asian delicacies, showcasing an impeccable mastery of sushi and beyond. Delight and indulge in the mesmerizing selection of sushi rolls, each a testament to the culinary artistry at play. As if to defy expectations, the gastronomic journey reaches new heights with their legendary "Big Rolls," each an awe-inspiring creation that elevates the dining experience to a realm of unparalleled extravagance. Complementing the expanse of culinary options, Now & Zen boasts a carefully curated selection of premium beers and sake, allowing connoisseurs to indulge in the harmonious marriage of flavors. Among the standout recommendations is the Tentaka Hawk in the Heavens, an ethereal libation that embodies the essence of the restaurant's ethos. A noteworthy surprise awaits beyond the dining area in the form of distinct restroom experiences, each a carefully crafted avant-garde extension of the restaurant's otherwise traditional design."

"I really enjoy N & Z. The food and value are really great. I like the atmosphere, but it is a little small and other patrons are pretty close. The service is thoughtful, helpful, and super nice. They could probably use one more server to make things prompt, but that is a minor issue."
