    Why 5 stars? Because this is a welcomed new addition to Woodforest. --- --- --- Tenzen is the latest restaurant to open in Pine Market, a new retail development that comes with high priced rents and a fickle demographic. Opening a local business and seeing it thrive is almost impossible, so I am hopeful that the great people of Woodforest and Montgomery Country support it. They certainly seemed to spare no expense in turning an otherwise bland strip mall canvas into a trendy dining space that feels like it's in The Heights. I ordered two pieces of nigiri and two sushi rolls. I thought the Salmon Belly Nigiri and the Holy Baked roll were just okay, to be honest. But I really enjoyed the fatty tuna nigiri and the Bubba Gump roll. I was told that they still consider this to be the soft opening and that the menu will expand, hopefully sometime in September. I will definitely come back at that time to try the ramen, among other things that might not be on the menu as of today. Everyone I interacted with here could not have been more friendly, which makes it really easy to root for this place. Support Tenzen, fellow community members!

    Interesting place. The decor reeks of high class and high cost- very nicely done. The service is a work in progress- several visits have had new servers that didn't know how to use their order pads, let alone anything about the menu. The food is very good but it's not up to the level of the decor. It IS very good sushi, fresh and nicely prepared, but it's really not as special as you're led to believe when you walk in the door. Unfortunately, the prices reflect the decor more than the quality of the food. Let's call this a work in progress and give it another try in a few weeks. Tons of potential.

    Love this place. Beautiful atmosphere and great drinks. Check out their lunch specials!

    Great ambiance, amazing drinks, and the owner is very sweet and attentive! I recommend trying out their lunch specials or the Wagyu Hot Rock.

    Sushi rolls.

    5/7/26-my husband and I came here for breakfast while waiting on his truck at Fred Haas Toyota. I…read morewas pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious and fresh. Breakfast cost us about $10 less than when we go to other chain places. When you have the choice of hashbrowns or country potatoes, get the country potatoes. They're cheesy and delicious. My scrambled eggs were not overworked. I hate that. Fluffy and delicious just like the pancakes. The cooks know what they're doing and the wait staff is very nice. The only complaint that I can come up with is I'm not a big fan of added sugar to my pancakes. But I know people love their sweet stuff. We'll be back.

    Updating my review!…read more My mom, husband, and I went this morning for breakfast and to start off the place wasn't as packed we found a booth pretty quick. It did take a while for anyone to attend us, I had to ask someone for menus and to take our drinks. My mom ordered the chicken fried steak and the waiter seemed a bit confused on what the menu said. My mom was confused too because on the menu it had two of the same name items with different prices. Anyway he took her order and he put in for the " country fried steak" as he called it and she also asked for the gravy on the side. My husband and I ordered waffles combo plates and my husband asked for a side of bacon. When the food arrived the gravy was on my mom's food when she asked for it on the side and she asked to get it replaced. She got it back and once she started cutting it it's was actually chicken fried chicken. She didn't want to ask to take it back so she just ate it. The good thing is she said her meal was delicious even though she didn't get exactly what she wanted. She also very much enjoyed the coffee. When it came to my mine and my husbands meal the sausage on his plate looked pale as if it was left on the grilled for one minute each side so we asked if it could be slightly more cooked and we're super grateful that the waiter took it back and brought crisper sausage linked on our plate. Now the only other disappointment from my husband's meal is that he never got his extra bacon instead he was brought extra sausage links. We didn't want to send it back either so we just kept it and he ate that. Overall all the food was amazing just wish everything was given to us the way we ordered it in the beginning. I would still go back and eat there.
