Such a gem! While visiting family in Fort Lauderdale, I was worried that it would be hard to find vegan options. Fortunately for me, the hotel I was staying at was right next to Zen Mystery! Not only does this wonderful establishment offer a variety of delicious vegan food, smoothies, and desserts, it is also organic and gluten-free. Everything was absolutely delicious, especially the Live Pad Thai. Staff is extremely welcoming and kind. My favorite part of my experience dining at Zen Mystery was the offering of the Bento Box, which allows you to pick any three or five choices and enjoy a little bit of everything. Though I was full, I couldn't resist a slice of cheesecake and it did not disappoint! I still dream of it and hope to visit again soon. Check this place out! read more

This place has been at this location some time . The kids are vegan and this was the spot for them to try. I had been there some time ago but to me it does not have the wow factor. They agreed with me as well . Will I ever come back ? I'm no longer vegan so no is the answer. The owners are very nice people . read more

I was happy to discover that I had a vegan cafe within walking distance from my Fort Lauderdale Airport hotel. Zen Mystery had such a great selection of food that it was really hard for me to pick just one thing. Lucky for me, they have a bento box option that allowed me to try 3 dishes. I went with the cold pad Thai (MY FAVORITE), a rice based dish (a close second), and a tuna inspired pate. The pate was just ok--it would have been better if I had veggies or crackers to put it on. On its own, it's a lot of the same flavor and gets old quickly. I Al's tried the peanut butter "cheesecake" with a cookie crumb crust. That was disappointing--the only flavor I tasted was banana, which was very unexpected. My recommendation is to go for the entrees and skip their desserts. read more

This is hands down my favorite place for the past 6 years. Dennis is my go to person for vibe checking new people into my life, the perfect place to stop after work, relatively quick meals, delicious raw vegan dishes, their chocolate is to die for, I love the library, the open mic and the reading nook - all while enjoying a cup of tea. If you have a first date, need somewhere to relax after work or on a lunch break, to causally dabble in some Spirtual books while sipping on some tea, or to over indulge in desserts without feeling bad about it- this is the place!!! Also, it's perfect for chilling out with friends if you can't decide where to go, there's always a deep, insightful and heartfelt conversation to be had here. Also, I've ordered almost everything on the menu, there's really no bad choice. The massage kale salad with Chai Tea is my favorite. Also, the sushi is delicious with the Mock Tuna. Do not pass up the chance to be here!! read more

I went to Zen Mystery for the first time last night. I initially went for their monthly open mic but ended up staying for the ambiance. It has a really relaxed feel with a beautiful crystal collection and community style tables so you can meet and chat with new people. I ended up having a three hour long conversation with an interesting person I met there. I ordered two glasses of red wine, a salad, and the delicious coconut cream pie for dessert. The pie was my favorite part! It was so tasty and homemade! If you're looking for a healthy vegan cafe with good energy then this is the place for you :) read more

A friend of mine recommended this place as vegan. So we decided to check it out. I have to point out it is not a restaurant as one would imagine. More like a tea house with some premade food. As I understood it is a spiritual boutique. That's why hours of operation are only three days a week. It is a cool local hang-out spot with delicious vegan desserts (and food). The owner, Denis, is super nice and very friendly. It is more like you came to a friend's place than a cafe. There is parking. read more

I was craving a healthy dinner and a cozy ambience to break up my drive home. I found Zen Mystery on yelp and decided to make the stop. The outside is very unassuming (I almost missed the turn) but the inside is so welcoming and comfortable. I had the veggie burger, kale salad, a smoothie, the Zen mystery tea and a lovely strawberry dessert and I can say, it was all delicious! One can tell the space is a labor of love and that the owners (the most lovely couple) really have their heart in what they do and the community they are building. Truly an oasis and will become one of my go to spots when I'm here. read more

Really cozy restaurant, friendly and warm place waiter was super nice great attitude. Lots of options, vegan gluten free, organic. all Food is made from scratch. they have a musician in the background playing music . can sit on the bar or on the 2 tables they have, they also have cups made out of paper and wood spoons and forks. very good experience tasty food. they don't open everyday so would need to come wednesday through sunday. they also have workshops of yoga reiki etc classes etc read more

Ok I like this place. It's a chill spot. It's a little place. They serve vegan light dishes. That look good. They have dessert too. I did not try there food I came for something else. My friend had tea. They have a good amount of tea choices here. They also had beers. I can't remember what he had. I remember that it was good. I enjoyed it. This place is the type of place that poets, musicians or comedians can show there talents. There is a room next door where you can participate or listen to live entertainment. read more

Delicious food and great conversation with Dennis and some of his regular patrons. This place is a gem. So comfortable and welcoming and i enjoyed the live music. The potato and kale salads in the bento box were yummy and surprisingly hearty. Highly recommend even if you're just vegan curious. read more

It was busy at counter when I walked in yet I was offered a menu promptly while Denis was helping the people in front of me. He suggested a pie if I was having desert...def a great vibe... tried the live tai and some pie which was all top notch. loved the cultural center aspect. As a creator and artist it's nice to find places for expression of one's self. Open mic, reiki circles, live music, comedy night, etc... Eclectic AF.... Found all the old timers at this open mic and look forward to going back for some jams with the Fam. read more

I'm so happy I finally caught this place open! My mom literally lives down the street but I've always had such a hard time making it here with the limited hours, which have become even more limited as of late due to the state of the world. I was sure to call before we came in to confirm the hours. The restaurant is run and operated by the owner himself these days and he's the most friendly guy I've met in a while. I made it in for lunch with my mom yesterday and I came with a hungry belly. We decided to split the Buddha Burger on a Community Bowl and the Bento Box so we could try a little bit of everything. When we walked in, we were greeted by the owner who let us know we could order at the counter or choose a table as he handed me a menu (which I'd already gawked at online). We chose a table and sat in the back but decided to take a look around. I grabbed some fresh Kombucha that was in the cooler and went back to the table. A few minutes later he came to take our orders. I was amazed that he could remember everything I ordered because the Bento Box is a 'pick 5' type of thing; when it's your place, you know your stuff though! We waited patiently for our entrees as a few other patrons came in to place orders. I was happy to see that the business is doing well. He socialized with a few of them as he prepared our food then came to bring us a nice hot plate with the burger (and community rice) and a nice cold plate with all the yummy sides. I found the price quite reasonable for all the portions you get. I also like how the utensils and plates are all biodegradable. Between my mom and I we definitely weren't able to finish all the food but I gave it a good try and I'm glad we got to taste it all! The hot plate was delicious and the cold plate was just as good. When he came to check on us, he asked us what our favorite was and we both agreed the Live Pad Thai was the best. While not divulging his secrets, he gladly explained how some of the items were made. Everything was so fresh and healthy. I did happen to have some room left for dessert because that Raw Coconut Cream Pie was calling my name! My mom and I shared it and I had to stop myself from scarfing it down, allowing her to enjoy it too! Again, delicious. As we were leaving, the owner chatted with us a bit which gave us time to buy some of the Raw Chocolate Bark that is made by a local chocolatier. That stuff is addicting! Overall, we had a great experience and I will be making it a point to return often. Thanks for the great food and the great service, that's been a rarity these days! read more

The Copper Tones headlined at Zen Mystery for a charity concert, so we had to go! It had been over 4 months since we had seen the play in Isla Morada so we were looking forward it! After suffering through the starter band, which we were very glad finished, the Copper Tones stole the show. They were paying all new original music and played about 10-12 songs over an hour. Stephanie's vocal range is dynamic, Dyllan has a softer smokey voice and adds to the entertainment value with his comical nature. Andy on drums and Dany on guitar bring together a tight ensemble. During all of this great music we enjoyed some of the fresh Kombutcha, tea (the green tea and regular chai) as well as their Bento Box. Zen Mystery's bento box included 6 small plates designed based on our requested choice of 50% cooked ingredients vs greens, 100% vegetarian. After sampling the bento box, we ordered a couple of each of their blondie and fudge coconut covered balls which were a mixture of raisins, chocolate and nuts which paired well with the tea. Zen Mystery will make your order to go or you can have a seat inside. This cafe also opens up for Yoga sessions and has merchandise such as t-shirts and local jewelry for sale. read more

Try the sampler! They have tuna-free tuna! They sell locally sourced komboucha and vegan ice cream... serve in a glass saucer. Everyone- patrons and personnel have such a friendly vibe. This food almost makes ppl peaceful. The spoons are wooden, the plates are biodegrable, and live music! Portion sizes are okay, but could be better. As an added bonus they have a unique selection of books .. including the one pictured. The gift shop's a nice touch, although I didnt care to buy from it. If you have 15 or so to spend, this is worth it. read more

Found this awesome place on yelp. It's so rare to find a fully gluten-free and vegan cafe. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS and very reasonably priced. Everything is made in house (this is not one of those junk vegan food places with only beyond meat). This is a healthy yummy vegan spot. The vibe is amazing. There was live music when I went with my husband. Highly recommend can't wait to go back and try this sundae!!! read more

Zen is a salon for the cognoscenti, a watering hole for free spirits, a mutual appreciation society for folks with an abundance of creative genius. That's open mic night on Friday. The food is full of life and love and goodness which are the rarest ingredients. Treat yourself. read more

Save The Tuna paté is life. Me and my partner's favorite meal there is the Live Zen Sandwich. Yum yum and yum. We order it without bell peppers and tomatoes (nightshade allergies) and they easily replace it with golden beets and cucumbers. So fresh and so yummy. I thoroughly enjoy their vinagraite. Their smoothies are ok (I'm bored of bananas all the time), but a bit pricey for the quantity we get. This is the best place to eat in the soflo area with yummy conscious fresh vegan vibes. It gets too crowded for me when there are events. I get anxious. So I gotta meditate a lot to not freak out. Their teas help mellow the mood out. I really like the vibe of a short hair tall woman that served us once and recently a new woman that was training. Super chill. read more

Delicious food & wonderful owners! Lovely ambiance

What a wonderful hidden gem. Stopped by for lunch since I've been exploring vegan options and this place hit the spot. Everything on the menu sounded amazing but I chose the Buddha burger over rice.
