Zao Asian Cafe

Prices went up; portions got smaller Friendly employees, always very clean, a tasty affordable meal for what it is. I haven’t eaten here in awhile and I was surprised that the serving is noticeably smaller than I remember. The chicken was very skimpy, not even a whole spoonful

Came here for lunch today and had such a great experience! The staff was so friendly, it was super nice to be greeted with a smile. I love the noodle bowl, and you have to try half teriyaki sauce, half yellow curry sauce. The yellow curry is SO GOOD

Great food, the employees were funny and helped select the three taco plate. Great the spicy 🌶️ sauce and you won’t regret it. The location is fine, especially for a downtown Salt Lake City restaurant. Loads of parking and we went during lunch rush hour for a take out order and wasn’t an issue whatsoever. Definitely recommend eating here if you’re looking for something new while visiting Salt Lake City. It’s a local chain that never fails to deliver customers great food!

I’ve been dining at the 400S location since 2018, likely one of the first branches. Unfortunately, over the years, the experience has steadily declined. Prices have significantly increased, while the quality of the food, especially my favorite — the meatballs — has gone downhill. Portion sizes have also shrunk. The corn often seems barely prepared, like it's been plucked off a stem, so I’ve stopped ordering it altogether. After tonight’s visit, I’m seriously considering not returning. The meatballs were overly salty, and the noodles were undercooked — how does one even get noodles wrong? It’s clear something isn’t right with this location, and sadly, it’s the only one close to me. The staff also struggle to take orders accurately, which doesn’t help matters. While I’ve tolerated these issues for some time, I’m not sure I can anymore.

I LOVE these bowls!! So so good! So quick and feels so fresh and healthy. They are delicious! Fun flavored lemonades too. Sooo good!
