So far my favorite Kava spot in Broward. Well decorated in a plaza with easy parking on east Oakland not too far from downtown Fort Lauderdale.. and in my opinion its Superior to the other places found in east fort lauderdale area. Better and older crowd . more relaxed setting .. better tasting options for your Kava and Kratom teas. Very long bar seating as well as tables and couches. They also have Games to play if you come in a group. They also carry snacks, cbd oils, relaxation brownies, among other things. Great for either starting or ending your night. read more

I've been coming to this lounge for about 5 years now, and I can confidently say that what keeps me coming back are the people and the vibes. The service is great, the drinks are good, and the weed products are even better. Joe is everything that makes up a fantastic bartender, he's been working there longer than I've been a customer. If you like a more standard bar vibe, Wednesday nights are happy hour where the drinks are half off. That's when it's the busiest. However, the atmosphere really shines when there's not a lot of people. It has low lighting, comfy couches and bar seating, chill music is played at a comfortable volume, and the bar has a smart tv. If you're looking for a break from sensory hell, to just go to a place to charge your phone and work on your computer, or to just unwind, I cannot recommend this place enough, especially on Monday/Tuesday nights. read more

I had an amazing time with two of my friends last week. It was our first time experiencing Kava and the bartender/server did an amazing job explaining the different menu options and explaining the differences between Kava and the Green, Red and White Kratom. I started with the Kava "Hot" Chocolate. It tasted just like Dunkin' Donuts Frozen Hot Chocolate. The experience from the Kava was really quite relaxing. The Kava provides a gritty sensation to the beverage but I really didn't mind. This was an amazing experience and I can't wait to have some more in the future! read more

My best friend showed me this place and although I rarely go I loved it. The service is great they always ask if you're good and need anything else. The ambiance is amazing very calm and relaxing but also fun. They have board games and I think it's a nice place to come to with friends read more

Very cute spot with a great selection of drinks. DRINKS: They have quite a few drink options, all available with syrups for flavoring. I only tried the white Kratom with Hershey's chocolate and caramel syrups. Just a note: Understand that Kratom drinks have a very strong flavor, and can be hard on the stomach for people who haven't tried it before. It can cause nausea if you have a lot at one time. So, If it's your first time, start with a small. FOOD: They don't have food, but they do have a great selection of snacks and candy. All your traditional picks of candy, with a few lighter snacks like veggie straws, pirates booty, and pop corners. AMBIENCE: Smells like incense, and they have comfortable couches. There are heavy curtains and mood lighting, including a large lava lamp. DOGGOS: They do allow dogs, as long as the puppets are leashed and well behaved. read more

Terrific kava-barista name Joe. Excellent atmosphere an fun clientele. Prices fair good value. Will definitely return.

Very different experience than I've ever had for a lounge spot. Came here on a weeknight when I was in Ft. Lauderdale. The staff was very friendly and patient in explaining the different types of drinks they have and their venue's philosophy. I recommend trying Kava and the other drinks they have here. They have a ton of board games to keep you entertained and overall it's a very chill spot! read more

My friends and I recently moved to the area and decided to check out this Kava bar. We've only ever been to one other Kava place before and the bartender was very helpful in making suggestions! The atmosphere is nice and relaxing, filled with candles, salt rock lamps, velvety couches, games, dog....just the ambiance we were looking for. Highly recommend if you're looking for something fun and different to do with a small group of friends. read more

Excellent hookah lounge, best in Pompano! nice aloha vibe.

This was my first time smoking hookah and what a wonderful place to try it. Such a peaceful experience. The server was knowledgeable and helpful. Actually, I had such a good time I think this a nice place to bring my family. I will be back. read more

Charles is a great Kava-ologist and there is an abundance of fun games that you can play. I was just blessed tonight because a local sk8r picked up the guitar and started to play some covers and he was fabulous. The people love new people coming in and enjoying the wonderful drinks and cbd and cbd edibles and kratom mixes. I had a great kava latte and I had a kratom strawberry lemonade. So there's a variety of mixes that remain up to the person. There's a lot of Kealoha in this place. Please invite your friends to join us and have a great time with your friends and make some new ones. read more

It was my 30th birthday. The sign on the door set the mood before walking through the door: the people here are here to have a real chill time. A first experience in Kratom, made easy by the knowledgeable staff and fitting atmosphere. For the adventure at heart, I highly recommend. read more

This place was pretty cool. It has a nice atmosphere and some great drinks. Unfortunately I decided to get a lace drink that had alot of kratom in it and felt like I had taken some kind of ecstasy pill and puked all night. Ask alot of questions before you get something here. read more

Zen Root is an oasis in the desert of crazy that is South Florida. Clean, chill, cozy and inviting. There's something for everyone.

Every kava bar has its own unique atmosphere, but Zen Root is undoubtedly my favorite. There are many drinks to choose from and many conversations to be had.

In Fort Lauderdale, this is by far the best kava joint in town. Everything from service to ambiance and all the way to the quality is A1.

Appropriately named "Zen" root kava, you automatically feel relaxed and welcome the moment you walk in. The friendly kavatender, Deb, helped me figure out which flavor to try with my Kava. I went with the almond flavor! Definitely recommend this place! Parking was easy too. read more

Not sure if there is a different owner here than the other Awa Na in Pompano. Unlike the place in Pompano this place has a great energy. Really relaxing and tranquil. Kava is on point. Definitely recommend. read more

This is my new favorite spot to hang out, relax and have some fun. The atmosphere is friendly, comfortable and chill. This kava bar has a certain feel of sophistication. The decor is very "zen" like and classy. You can always count on friendly customers and kava tenders for interesting conversation. It's easy to feel at home and make new friends at this place. If you have never tried kava this is the perfect place to test it out. They have many different flavors and mixes so that its easy to find your favorite one. I personally like the Banana Creme flavored kava. Zen Root Kava Bar also offers free wifi so you can bring your computer or ipad and be productive outside of the office or house. I also like that they offer special events once in a while like yoga and meditation. This place has it all!! Don't miss it. read more
