Zen Modern Asian, which specializes in modern Asian cuisine, is not the kind of Chinese takeout we have eaten since childhood, but more like a mixture of Asian flavors. Their stir-fried vegetables and bibimbap are quite thoughtful, and the seasoning is clean and not too heavy. It is suitable for bringing a few friends and ordering some small dishes to share. The atmosphere is very relaxed.
