Japanese Comfort Food

 
 

 

Zen Box Izakaya is a Chef Driven Ramen-Centric Izakaya by a Chef & Wife team in Downtown Minneapolis' Mill District.

The true spirit is the interaction between one another, the combination of people + food & drink + atmosphere. It is not just a destination, but a culture of its own - The Zen Box Culture.

A sunny day looks better with a Sapporo. The longest day of the year is here, so from Hitachino to Hideji, you've got time to explore our Japanese craft beer selection. #mpls #zenbox #izakaya #craftbeer #solstice #ビール #乾杯

Tuesday means veggie ramen, but not for long. This week will be the last chance for our weekly veggie ramen because *drumroll* starting next week Tuesday June 26th, we will have a vegan mazemen available all the time. That's lunch, dinner, and late night, too. #ラーメン #居酒屋 #tuesday #veggieramen #izakaya

When it’s 90+ degrees with a heat advisory, the only heat we’re wanting is the flame that torches our aburi salmon. Fresh salmon garnished with smoky lava salt will melt in your mouth. The tart and sweet honey ponzu will leave you thinking about the next bite. Do yourself a favor and order two. #izakaya #fresh #snacks #mpls #beattheheat #salmon #yum #刺身 #炙り
