KZEN's participation is a clear sign of its commit-
ment to excellence and its aim to bring traditional
cuisine to new audiences. It's no coincidence that,
year after year, its dim sum are among the most
highly recommended by food critics
The dining room and service: key
to the experience
The experience goes beyond the food. The pace
of service is calm, and the staff are attentive and
highly professional. It's rare to find a team so we-
ll-versed in the menu, able to make suggestions
without being intrusive, always adapting to each
guest—whether it's their first visit or they're long-ti-
me regulars. Here, every detail matters, and the
goal is always to make you want to return.
Over the years, KZEN has built a loyal clientele that
brings together lifelong Madrileños, young couples,
families, and travellers looking for authenticity far
from the latest trends in Asian cuisine. The setting
encourages long conversations and unhurried en-
joyment. Everything invites you to come back.
A modern classic in the heart of
Madrid
Loyalty to an idea, consistent quality, and respect
for tradition are the hallmarks of KZEN. Over the
past twenty years, the city has seen hundreds of
Asian restaurants come and go; many have fallen
into the trap of meaningless fusion. KZEN, on the
other hand, has chosen to evolve slowly, building
a loyal clientele who know what they’re looking for
and have no need for gimmicks.
Today, its value for money remains one of its great
strengths. The menu is broad and honest, free from
fleeting trends or flashy exotic ingredients. Japane-
se cuisine, represented through sushi and sashimi,
stays true to the product and its precise cuts, while
the hot dishes stand out in their own right.
In short, KZEN celebrates twenty years of being
exactly what it set out to be: a restaurant where
the food is good, the atmosphere even better, and
where guests always want to return. Its presence
at the Dim Sum Festival is just one more sign of its
commitment to excellence and tradition.
Madrid needs places like this, places that remind
us that cuisine—like life—is a matter of time, ho-
nesty, and respect for the essential
