Fun Asian fusion spot. Although there are only a few options, they're really good and effortlessly healthy. We ate outside and stayed to chat for a bit after because it was comfortable. Right off of State Street, it's fun to sit and people watch.

The food is pretty tasty and flavorful. I got a rice bowl and the bowl is 90% rice. I would love more protein and veggies options.

This is one of my favorite fast-food places in Utah! Everyone already knows that they are essentially the Asian Chipotle (but they actually let you customize your order…)! They have so many different options when it comes to how you want your plate put together. You can get a salad, a rice bowl, noodle bowl, veggie bowl, wrap, tacos & soup! You really can’t go wrong with anything you get from here - everything is so fresh and you can taste the difference! I always go with a bowl with half rice & half yakisoba noodles, steak, all the veggies (I miss the potato veggie option - it really made the bowl extra filling and delicious) and the Zao way for the garnish toppings. If I’m eating in the restaurant I will get the tiger sauce (which is the teriyaki sauce, chili paste & aioli mixed) but if I’m taking it home I will put on my Yum Yum sauce (which is essentially Asian fry sauce). 📌: Locations all over Utah 🥗 Healthy Fast Food Option Utah 🍜 Asian Chipotle 👶 Kid-friendly 🍹 House-made drinks 💰 Meals from $9-$13 Happy Eating!

First time at Zoa and I loved it! I wasn’t sure what to try and the employee made a great recommendation. I got the steak bowl with noodles and it was really good!

Overall great place to eat. Yellow curry is very, very mild. If you’re wanting flavor, go for the green! I enjoyed all the toppings. The portion is good, I would say it’s about 75% of what Chipotle gives you.

Was really eager to try this place and it did not disappoint! But here's the thing - you have to order the right entree to just hit the spot! Took this seriously when a foodie friend steered me in the right direction. Here's my go-to order (as was his): Yakisoba bowl with chicken, all the veggies, extra jalapeños, and their "secret" TIGER sauce. If you love spicy food, this is the exact order for you! Unfortunately for me, this order hits the spot EVERY. FREAKIN. TIME so I get scared venturing out from this! Location is clean, friendly employees, and inviting.
