About Zenna
On Main Rd in Shrewsbury, Zenna is a Chinese restaurant serving Cantonese-style dishes for eating in or takeaway. Chips and curry sauce are offered alongside the main dishes, sitting next to a menu that runs from wonton soup and noodles to special lobster and soft shell crab. Sweet and sour chicken balls, chicken egg fried rice, and sweet and sour spare ribs are available for takeaway, while pineapple fritters round out the dessert options. The kitchen's approach leans toward the sweeter end of Cantonese cooking. Inside, staff attend to tables directly, a setup suited to larger parties, and meals are paced without rushing diners along. Reservations are required. The combination of familiar Cantonese staples with a chips and curry sauce option gives the menu a broader range than a standard set list.

“We really enjoyed our time at Zenna, it’s a lovely place with a warm, welcoming setting. The staff were very nice and attentive, and it was great to meet Tom & Ali who made the experience even better. The food was honestly some of the best we’ve had. We started with wonton soup, which was delicious, followed by noodles, special lobster and soft shell crab, everything was full of flavour and beautifully prepared. The pineapple fritters were a perfect finish to the meal. Overall, a fantastic dining experience with great service and a really nice atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back.”

“Picked up a takeaway from here early on Sunday evening, so it was a bit quiet inside and therefore not able to judge the atmosphere. We had sweet & sour chicken balls, chicken egg fried rice, sweet & sour spare ribs, chips, and curry sauce. The food was really good, but as you would expect with takeaway the ribs were extremely messy, but surprisingly lots of meat and not as many bones as we get from our local Chinese takeaway. If we find ourselves in the area again we would definitely go back, but would choose to eat in next time.”
