I visited Orange Beach, Alabama to attend my best friend's wedding. She asked that I find a restaurant for the reception after the wedding for a total of 22 people. I called numerous restaurants and none were willing to take a reservation for 22 on a Saturday night. The sister property of Zen, Ginny by the Lane, suggested I call... More

Zen is a nice restaurant in Orange Beach with an Asian flair. The food is great and so is the atmosphere and wine list. We had a sushi app. The vegetable roll was one of the best. The strip special was my choice and my friend had the Triggerfish. Both entrees were excellent. We sat at the bar and every... More

On a recent trip to Orange Beach, I had the pleasure of visiting Zen for dinner. My friend and I were debating on where to for dinner and stumbled across this place. Not sure what to expect, we were pleasantly surprised by the menu variety. We decided to share sushi. Our choices did not disappoint - The Rockefeller, Volcano Roll,... More

Very nice upscale restaurant. The service was excellent and the food very good. We always gather with friends for lunch at least once when we are in Orange Beach. Make sure you are not in a rush to enjoy the complete dining experience.

..We started out going to a place called Cobalt, but once we found out they had a 2 hour wait on a Saturday night, we said "fuhgeddaboutit" and left. Thanks to good old Yelp my boyfriend entered in his gps and this was the closest and highest rated next spot. Thanks Yelpers....after just now reading some reviews, I have no... More

A group selected this place after reading the reviews. We were staying at a condo nearby. We arrived on a very busy Thursday evening. We got there around 7:00. Happy Hour was just ending so we enjoyed a very nice glass of wine for $4. The wait staff and manager were very attentive. Food was very good. One person didn't... More

We usually like this place but took out of town guests Friday night and were disappointed and embarrassed. They wanted sushi and hubbie wanted steak so we brought them here. Not sure what has happened but sushi had so much stuff on it it was hard to find the roll....too much rice also. If we wanted rice we would have... More

Took my family here after reading several raving reviews. Our dining experience was not terrible, however the food was nothing to stand up and rave about. It was decent and filling but our bill was 120.00 after tip which is fine, but the taste of the food did not warrant that price tag! I feel this restaurant is a bit... More

This place was just across the street from our condo and so we walked over there to get take out food and were very pleasantly surprised. It was a Tuesday night so while sitting at the bar waiting for our order, we enjoyed watching all these amazing agile seniors kicking up their heals to a live band. According to the... More

Ate supper last night, it was great. Started with Oyster Rockefeller sushi. Definite worth trying if you like oysters. The fried onion rings were great. Would recommend hoisin baby back ribs, unbelievably good. Our waitress was so helpful and good. Highly recommend.
