Customer Review Summary
The complaints are specific and recur. Chow mein draws several negatives, described as dry and tasteless noodles with one beansprout and a sliver of onion, and a prawn version called super dry. Two reviewers say the salt and pepper chips, mushrooms and duck were heavily over-salted, with one reporting a burning tongue and one saying the duck tasted gone off. Another found the crispy duck all fat. One reviewer calls the premises dirty.

“i love salt but that was so much salt i’m going to have a heart attack. even the mushrooms had way to much salt on, my tongue is burning still. i know it’s called salt and pepper chips but i had them from other places and this is way over the top. never go there again.”
- Rebecca Stanford
“100% recommend. Been a customer of Zen for over 10 years. I’ve recently moved to Gloucester and I drive weekly to get my takeaway from here. The food is fresh and every dish is of great quality and is very tasty. Price is also very reasonable!”
