The food and customer service are good. The prices are a little steep but you pay for what you get. My husband is far from vegan; wont even entertain the thought; but he loved the food. They have an amazing variety too. My fav was the sweet potato fries and all natural ketchup and the nachos. Soo good. Just be mindful that allot of the meals are bean based. Beans are good for your heart but the more you eat.... You know. The drinks (we had hot cacoa and chai) have a very light flavor which I didnt like too much. I also didnt care for my Chipotle bean burger (it was a little dry for me) but my husband loved it.

Im a meat eater, not a veggie or vegan and I was impressed with the meal. My wife is a vegetarian and we brought her there for her birthday. I had the Crabbie Patty which was all vegan. I didnt expect it to taste like crab but there is good texture and a little "kick". It was served on a whole wheat bun with sweet potato fries and home made ketchup. For a vegan meal, I was satisfied. If you are a veggie or vegan, its a great place for you. If you are a meat eater, theres a couple of dishes that you can tolerate for the pleasure of your other half!

Since I am a vegetarian, I have been curious about this place! I ordered Raw Tacos, on their recommendations, with the Kale Salad. The tacos had good flavor and texture variations. The sour cream was great! The Kale Salad was...interesting. The sweet banana chips were unusual, but not bad. There were several snacks: chia seed pudding, raw chocolates and even raw truffles available at the desk. The staff was friendly, and take out time wasnt long. A unique restaurant & bar regarding menu, and decor theme. I will be sure to return.

Out of this world food, warm atmosphere Ive dined here many times and I have never been disappointed by the food. Yes, it is very expensive and has more of a classy feel than casual dining but the food is seriously art. The service has always been excellent, friendly, and prompt. There is a great, homey-yoga studio vibe to the atmosphere of the restaurant. Also love the G-Monkey (which is also a bit more affordable!). This is certainly one of the best vegetarian/vegan restaurants in the East.

Its an incredible vegan restaurant, but I mostly want to talk about the G-Fries. This is not an exaggeration... these are the best fries of any kind Ive ever had. They are perfection. I cannot even imagine a better sweet potato fry. If you dont like sweet potato fries, I promise you will like these. If by some chance you dont, youre crazy. Theres no other explanation. Yeah... My dinner was awesome too. Everything is awesome. But those fries!!!

Imaginative fresh and healthy food ! Been twice and cant wait to go again, the menu is so vast and rich you need few visits to try it all and so far its all delicious ! Wish we had a place like this in NJ or even NYC- a cozy, down to earth( literally... ) non pretentious vegan food . Thank you guys for spearing the way !

AMAZING. Not a vegan myself but food was fresh, delicious, filling to the point of satisfaction but not overly heavy feeling. Waitress was friendly and informative, nice setting, and plenty of options- some you wouldnt even know were vegan. Definitely recommend for vegans or non vegans.

G Zen was simply one of the best vegan dining experiences I have had. Everything was delicious. The staff was friendly and fun, and the cocktails were excellent too. Strongly recommend the bruschetta, and the G Fries are incredible. Cant wait to get back!

Most amazing food. You just cant imagine how delicious it is until you are there eating it. Pure love in every bite. Most desserts are gluten free! I also enjoyed the turmeric power drink. So many juice and drink options, definitely a place to splurge.

If you are vegan, vegetarian, raw vegan, or someone who wants to try something different this is the restaurant for you. The food is excellent, the staff is kind and friendly, the place is clean. My favorite dessert raw cashew ice cream with fudge

If you are in the area this is an awesome vegan eatery. Former owner of Its Only Natural in Middletown, Mark and Amy make the best food. You can also learn a lot when you go here, they are willing to share their information on anything.

Absolutely amazing restaurant with a superb dinner, lunch, brunch menu that offers diverse food options. I highly recommend the Zen Burger and the chocolate torte. They also have smoothies, juices, coffee/tea, and alcoholic beverages.

One of the best vegan restaurants Ive ever been to hands down. Staff was lovely, food was incredible, and desserts were out of this world. Recommend trying the raw tacos and the nachos. Intelligent coffee with a dash of almond cream.

Excellent food, and vegan too! Atmosphere is pretty crunchy granola, but in a good way. I had a Raw Young Thai Coconut as a drink, it was great!

Food was exemplary but wait sfaff was clumsy and uninformed. Between that and the long wait times, it really tarnished the experience.

Too bad its vegan because I like eggs with my breakfast. However, if you are against killing unfertilized eggs, this is a great place
