I have lived in Todos Santos for over 11 years and I don't go out to eat very often, but chose to eat at the Zen Garden Cafe yesterday. It was extremely good food, spotlessly clean and the staff made me feel right at home. I will be making this a regular special-night-out stop from now on. Living in Mexico,... More

This is a little gem of a restaurant. Asian cuisine with a personal flair. All ingredients are local and are very fresh. Nina is a great host and her staff will cook up a delightful meal for you. General Tso chicken is an excellent choice and Sesame Chicken is my daughter's favorite. They also have a large selection of teas.... More

I enjoyed tastes I never experienced in my lifetime. I am now a faithful customer, bringing my friends and recommending Zen Garden to strangers. The clean patio dining and relaxing fountain added to my experience. I am impressed with the owner, Nina, and her heart to serve healthy, organic, healing food. Do not miss the experience of dining at Zen... More

It is not that often that you find good Asian food in Mexico. This clean, lovely restaurant features some Thai, some Chinese, some fusion...about 48 teas, literally the best Jasmine tea I have ever tasted...the owner, Nina, brought us some complimentary Chamomile tea after dinner and we sat and talked. There is an outdoor seating area where you can dine... More

This restaurant is probably one the best in todos santos. Finally, impeccable guest service, clean flatware, clean linens, and amazing food! I would drive one thousand miles for the general chicken, and pay one million for the experience.Please extend our thanks to chef Alfredo

We went here on our last day and wished we had tried it earlier. The hostess/owner was so warm and hospitable, the food was perfectly cooked. The vegetarian Vietnamese spring rolls were filled with organic greens and not overstuffed with rice noodles - fresh and tasty. Pork dumplings were delectable as were the spinach ones. They have a huge selection... More

If you are looking for a place to eat that is off the beaten track, has a very pleasant ambience, great quality food and, last but not least, reasonable prices, this is it! The place is spotless, the staff are charming and everything we ate was delicious. The only flaw? The vegetarian spring rolls were just a tad overcooked -... More

When your palate craves something different, this surprisingly good new Asian restaurant offers a variety of cuisines including Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Korean favorites. We enjoyed dinner in a relaxed zen atmosphere of polished wood furnishings, fountain, rock garden and soft lighting. Service was so warm and personable that we hated to leave. A great find!

Zen Garden has the best dumplings ever! All the fish was fresh and their homemade teriyaki sauce was excellent. Nina and staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Good combination of high-quality food and informal atmosphere. The music (live) was good, but there's no fixed music schedule.
