    Chicken Bowl - chili lemongrass
    Dan S.

    Zao is awesome. We love Zao and have been going here for years. We started in SLC and we're so excited when they came to station park. Zao has become a once or twice a month staple. Good food, healthier, and fast. My go to is the steak tacos. So good with just a little heat. I get everything on them and have them toss in crispy onions at the cash register for a little crunch. Definitely a 5/5, so good. My wife gets the chicken bowl with chili lemongrass with all the vegetables. My daughter got the kids meatball taco with a side of noodles and a drink.

    So I love Zao, and the new Farmingtom location is super close for me, so I'm sure I'll be by all the time The downside... no Banh Mi sandwich at this location. Which sucks since that's why we went to Zao in tHe first place. The good news? They have tacos (super good) rice & noodle bowls (always great), and did I mention they are close to my house??? They also have a huge wrap which I have tried yet, but I'm sure it's amazing. Thanks for bringing another option tt Station Park!

    I was pleasantly impressed with the restaurant. It has a Cafe Rio style approach to ordering your food with a choice of entrees and proteins. I got a noodle bowl and it was fresh and delicious. Everything in the bowl had a good flavor. Pricing was decent. The service speed matched other restaurants. The workers were cordial. The dining area was clean. Overall it was a good experience. The bowl didn't fill me up, but I'm a big guy so it's more feedback to order a side dish for me when I go again.

    This good place is very predictable in their quality and the taste of their dishes. Today was an unusual situation because I arrived, ordered my meal and proceeded to the cash register when they said they did not accept cards today because a power outage earlier had shut them down. They only accepted cash. There was no sign on the door or indications of that otherwise. When I explained that I did not have cash, they simply said, "no problem, you can pay us next time." I was very surprised but thanked them and proceeded to eat my meal with my lunch partner. A couple of hours later I returned to the restaurant with cash. They looked very surprised and rang up my order again as I paid them for our earlier meals. Who does that? I've never once had that happen before. That act alone has generated my loyalty to this restaurant and whomever owns it. Nice job! Thank you so much for your trust!

    We are so excited to have a Zao closer to home FINALLY! If you haven't been here go now!!! It is delicious. Zao is very gluten free conscious. I feel safe taking my daughter with celiac disease here. It's one of a very small handful of restaurants I feel safe taking her to.

    Really tasty and healthy food here with a super nice staff and a very chill environment to eat in!…read more I had the pioneer bowl, with pita and hummus. The cilantro sauce with the sweet potato hash and chicken made up one of the best bowls I've ever had. The pita was crispy and warm with a really yummy hummus. I also had a chocolate cookie as recommended by the cashier, it was the perfect dessert to top off a great meal. The whole menu looks great, I'll be back!

    First things first. If you are ordering takeout or delivery, be prepared for missing items or your…read moreorder to not be correct. Sadly I was warned and didn't heed the advice. I ordered the Custom Protein Plate to include Al Pastor Shredded Chicken, Fresno Cauliflower, and Cilantro Lime Slaw. I also requested a side of their pita bread and hummus along with just a side of pita strips. Lastly was the Habanero Ginger Hot Sauce and Israeli Pico. After waiting nearly an hour for my food to be ready to pick-up I was absolutely starving and stupidly didn't check the bag (which was sealed/stapled in a sturdy brown paper bag). Was very disappointed to see that I did not receive the pita bread and hummus side. I did receive just the plain pita strips that I also had ordered, and thank GOD I requested the Habanero Ginger Hot Sauce and Israeli Pico otherwise I would have had no spice or dipping for the bread and my meal. The Habanero Ginger Hot Sauce is spicy (but not too much so). It has the perfect kick that will definitely have me returning. The Israeli Pico was also fantastic and extremely fresh and flavorful. Both sides/sauces were so good that I honestly want to try them all eventually. The Al Pastor Shredded Chicken wasn't anything spectacular. It honestly tasted pretty much like any shredded chicken that you would receive at a Mexican restaurant. The Fresno Cauliflower was absolutely fantastic! Definitely could've used a larger portion size than what was included. The Cilantro Lime Slaw was also flavorful and very healthy/light on the abdomen. Only thing I will say is that it definitely didn't taste as good on day two so you might want to keep that in mind if you like to have leftovers such as myself. The pita strips were a bit disappointing. Almost rock hard and not very fresh though I will say they were all gone in the same evening as the seasoning is good and they aren't very large to begin with. Definitely do plan on returning but not quite sure when. I work a lot of long hours so I depend on takeout for most of my meals and I'm indifferent about a restaurant that couldn't get my order correct the FIRST time visiting (especially since I had already been warned; obviously it's a problem at this location). Vessel Kitchen definitely is a good, non guilty way of indulging without breaking the bank.

    Met up with an old friend that I hadn't seen in years. I was having way too much fun at the…read moreamusement park...whereas they clearly weren't. After about 6 hours of non-stop rides and waiting, we decided to get off the walk and grab a bite to eat. Due to more extreme rides planned for the rest of the day; we opted for sharing a plate and not indulging in much more. The Pork Carnitas Nachos honestly were a good 10/10 for me because I was starving. Friend said more a 8/10 for them. The service here sucks! Unless it's the teenager where you pick up your order up from; forget it otherwise. You order at the counter. They give you a buzzer thing that will buzz after your order is ready to pickup from their window. Seat yourself if you can find any room. They also do have an outside patio area which is nice but unfortunately it was all packed. At the counter when you order everything for your party, you get your beverages. The cashier (I'm thinking she was either German or European ... which actually would have been lovely had she actually cared to be there). No manners. Very rude even. I didn't understand the "buzzer" system and in my party there was one Coke and one Diet Coke. Now, which one is which b/c she just shoved them towards us. I wouldn't have cared but my friend might have. Anyways, what ever happened to pushing the one little button on the plastic lid like we did back in the 80s-90s. Nevermind.. I'm getting old;+) So we found a table for two right by the bar with two little barstools. We had absolutely no issues with waiting (fyi, it was about 20 minutes). Engrossed in conversation, I feel something crawling underneath my feet. My friend did too. "WTF? Are there mice in here"? Nope, just an angry old lady sweeping underneath our feet (BTW, we hadn't received our order yet at 20 minutes) and I guess she thought we sat there for too long just drinking and not eating. FFS - When the nachos eventually were ready, the young 15 year old or so was friendly and gracious at the pick up window. If you want utensils here though, you have to ask the pick up window. When I asked for a fork they were plastic and ungloved bare-hand handed it to me with the actual fork in between his fingers. Plenty of napkin dispensers but not very hygienic if you want utensils. Side note- Whether you just go to the restaurant on it's own or are enjoying Lagoon Amusement Park, there is a bathroom located inside the restaurant that is actually clean (unlike all the restrooms circulated throughout the park). Store is clean but customer service and employees need big time customer service training! I'm giving this review a straight 4 for decent food and an amazing day. Sadly the restaurant itself is only worthy of a 3.

    After 4 weeks of being open, the staff should know how to fill orders from the Point Of Sale…read moreautomated system. It's not even that busy yet. Just wait for summer. Took me almost 30 minutes to get a pretzel order? Poor lady was waiting over an hour for her family order. Poor management. Cooks were filling orders but staff didn't know how to fill them.
