I called in advance this time to confirm, and while I truly appreciate honesty, I was disappointed to learn that they no longer offer MSG-free options. Perhaps they never did, or maybe the previous levels of MSG weren't high enough to trigger my migraines. Regardless, I feel my trust as a customer has been broken. For a long time, I considered Zen Toro one of my very few favorite restaurants in Davis that I would recommend to friends, but I can't support a business that doesn't prioritize the health of its customers. I’ve tried every other ramen shop in the city and found that they all use MSG, so I really hoped Zen Toro would be different. After reading other reviews, it seems like the restaurant has undergone changes recently and that the quality has significantly declined. It’s disheartening to see a family business, once known for its commitment to quality, deteriorate due to a focus on profits over customer care. While the old Zen Toro may have served meals with MSG that I didn’t appreciate, they still offered clear options without it and provided great dishes and service. Now, it seems there’s no option for MSG-free ramen in Davis, which is truly disappointing. It’s sad to see Zen Toro in this state; I know they were capable of so much more.
This restaurant is one of the hidden gems in Davis. The food is delicious, and they are mindful of gluten, offering several options recommended for those with celiac disease.
Everything just feels off. From the fried California roll to the damp chicken karaage, this restaurant gave me the impression that they attempted an authentic Japanese experience but didn't put in enough effort. On top of that, the waitstaff appeared to be Korean, and there was Korean cold noodles on the menu. If you're expecting even mediocre Japanese food, you might end up disappointed.
I went here with one of my dearest friends, maybe 2 other tables seated at the time. We were first served partially filled glasses of straight out of the hose tap water with mostly melted bits of ice. I asked for an iced tea. It was projected to be 106 that day, no, I would not like hot tea instead. The server proceeded to suggest they could bring an iced, hot tea.....ok sure. 10 minutes later a different server arrived with a steaming mug of tea, I declined and opted for a Sprite. Right, not a good start, but sushi was pretty good taste wise. Unfortunately sitting at the bar I witnessed them in action including repeatedly setting their knives down on a painfully obvious dirty surface on top of the chiller that was covered in dust and bits of whatever that had accumulated in the years since it had last been wiped down. My bowels were not happy the next morning.
