Sweet and sour chicken and pork chow mein.
Evelyn S.

Been coming to Zens for 11years. I still love their food. The service is amazing. The owner is really nice. They always ask my daughter. If she wants her food first when we are waiting for her grandmas. Over all it an amazing place to eat.

Honey Walnut Shrimp with Chicken Fried Rice
Muriel T.

The honey walnut shrimp was good and the fried rice was also good. The service was a little slow but maybe only because they were busy. The place is diner style with Asian food, hence Asian diner.

Wonton Soup
Lulie V.

Our favorite place. It's become a family favorite. Lots of food for your money. We love to eat in, it's quiet and staff is friendly and attentive.

Friendly, very clean, big restaurant. I ordered a dinner. It large amounts of food. I had hot tea. We had ordered appetizers. Egg flour soup.

Sweet and sour chicken
Alexis J.

Heard about this place from a coworker. Have ate there twice this week. Got beef noodle soup the first time and it was so good and hot. The second time, I got the sweet & sour chicken, fried shrimp appetizer and my partner got #1 dinner which has orange chicken, chicken & broccoli and double rice. This also came with a side of fried tasty things. The fried cheese wontons are bomb! It is a fast favorite for us!

Dry and utterly flavorless. The "shrimp" is all breading. Only place to get delicious chinese food is in San Francisco's Chinatown.

This pho spot is delicious!!! Trust me!!! I have been going here since high school. So since 2009…read morebut stopped coming in 2013 because I moved. But I can't stop thinking about the calamari!!! The calamari is the star of the show. It is delicious and a must-try. I went back here and so much has changed!!! The menu has expanded and that is amazing. I always get the shrimp and rice. Sometimes I get fried rice or steamed rice and it has amazing, tasty tempura batter of the calamari. I do recommend getting two plates of calamari!!! It is super addicting. My family and I can't stop eating it because it is that good. Service is amazing!!! I remember it is a family-owned business. My family and I used to remember the owners back when I lived in Lemoore. They are very nice people and will bring you great service and amazing food. Btw it is always packed!!! Parking is also difficult!!! It is in front of a park and it is in an okay place but worth it to go. The ambiance is the same as I remembered. It is big. Before, it was a small shop and hopefully, they expand. I low-key wish there was one in North Cal because my family and I miss the calamari. But it is still nice to visit here and see how this small business became a huge

This is the very best hole in the wall Poke restaurant in Visalia…read more The fish is always fresh. The serving sizes are quite reasonable. The service I've had, has always been helpful and friendly. The restaurant has always been very clean, although the ambiance is a little lacking compared to the food. My favorite thing to do is get food to go, and eat in a nice park. If yelp let me give half stars I'd give Pokerito four and a half stars!

The woman that helped us at the counter was really lovely and patient with us while we looked over all the options. She was very polite answering the phone, assisting a doordasher, and assisting the other customers that came in behind us. Two of us went and we both really enjoyed our food. The white rice was perfectly fluffy and the brown was nutty, flavorful, and had the perfect amount of chew. The bulgogi was tender and seasoned so well that I honestly could have eaten an entire bowl of that by itself. The KBBQ was good and a little spicier than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise. The spicy crab was exactly as expected, mildly spiced and fresh tasting. The person that went with me enjoyed their tempura. All of the toppings were incredibly fresh tasting and I think part of that is because they keep their toppings covered, so they don't dry out like I've experienced at some other poke bowl places. We got hefty servings of seaweed salad and toppings and our bowls were stuffed! Apologies for no photos, I was too excited to dig in, but I will be back! We really need more places like this in Visalia!

I literally only came to my in-laws this week just so I could try this place out and surprise, it is literally down the street! I tried calling in the order and the message said you could text so I tried that but received no response. Odd. We drove down there just on the off chance they were open and lucked out. Unfortunately they were out of tortas , but that is also a good sign since they must be good right ? The owner and employee were super friendly ( I love great service!) I was lucky enough to snag a bulgogi burrito , some bulgogi Nachos / taco as well as a spicy pork taco. Let's jump right in with the best item. The spicy pork! It was tender , juicy, a little sweet a little heat with a slight aftertaste of pineapple. It reminded me a Korean version of an al-pastor taco. Freaking amazing! It was topped with some sort of pickled cucumber. I honestly wish I had gotten everything with the spicy pork. Literally 10 stars out of 5!!! Now for the beef bulgogi. I have had some amazing bulgogi in my life so I'm always ready to give it a try. This beef had great flavor but was a little tougher than what I am used to. It was also cut into bigger chunks steak style. All of the bulgogi I've had is extremely thin sliced. I think if it was sliced thinner against the grain it would be better. 3 out of 5 stars. The nachos were massive and topped with beans , the meat , cucumbers and some cheese? Not too bad either but I felt they needed a little more oomph. I'm definitely returning for the spicy pork and I now want to try the chicken. I think the spicy pork would go great with a siracha sauce drizzled over the top.

The indoor seating place is well placed and doesn't feel too crowded. Being from out of town, been fortunate to have their breakfast and lunch. Breakfast: had the chicken fried steak, egg and hashbrown. Big portion enough to take some home. The breakfast was good but nothing flavorful to brag about but what you would expect for a good chicken fried steak. Cooked perfect. Lunch: had the fried burger and regular fries. The burger was a good size, seasoned well and cooked (medium) as requested. The fries were plain and i would recommend the curly fries. I also had the sampler plate. Onion rings: cut and cooked good. Fried pickles: tasted as they should. Cheese curds: batter well but needed and little longer to cook. The cheese had that laffy taffy stretch. Chicken wings: buffalo. The flavor and cook was tasteful but just too small. About the size of a fun size snicker. Overall: the service and food is still great. I recommend this place for sure. FYI, they do have pastries that looked good but I didn't get any.
