Zen in Banja Luka

If i could gave 0... everyting is bad... service is sooooo0oo slow and unkindly... generaly, awful experience

Great options for vegetarians, vegans and overall whoever wants to eat fresh and healthy food. Their ice cream and raw cakes are delicious.

I adore this place. They have great food that are vegan, gluten free or etc. Also must try fresh squeezed juices, great selection. Place you must visit if you are in Banja Luka. Highly recommend!!

I loved the place ! Perfect environment for whom we hate cigarette smell. The people is very kind. They have English menu and a lot of vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options !

Nice place, but I had to change my review to 4 stars because of the service. Staff was nice, but still with some strange attitude. Also, the order I made was not complete, and when I asked about it, they simply said they didn’t have all ingredients. Overall, food is nice and the ambient is comfortable.

One of the best, if not the best, place to eat or just sit and relax. The atmosphere is amazing. Waiters and nice, they do not judge you based on how you are dressed/look/talk. You can come in as a metalhead or a prince, they will serve you the same. They will talk about their food. Explain how it is made and which ingredients have been placed inside.They serve variety of foods including but not limited to VEGAN dish. They have around 70 different types of dishes and all of their cakes and parfaits are raw vegan and amazingly delicious.One big plus this is second only place where smoking is forbidden inside the restaurant, so if you are pregnant or have a baby, you can actually come here and eat. They have baby food and baby chair. You can access their entrance with wheels, so if you are using wheel chair, you can enter.I recommend this place to everyone, not only vegans.

Aside the food, which is amazing, this place is absolutely perfect for all those people who wanna enjoy some time in a relaxing and healthy no-smoking place :)Go there and enjoy!!!

Absolutely shameless. I ordered two different meals, for my daughter and me. My daughter got totally different meal than what we ordered, and she despised ingredients that were in the meal we got, but we couldnt do anything about it.I basically wasted my money (and the food wasnt cheapbecause the staff is unprofessional and cant take orders. They pretty much stole the money.Also I found not one, but TWO hair strands in my meal, its absolutely disgusting and gross. Things like that shouldnt happen, and if they do, the restaurant should be closed. I paid to eat food that I ordered, not somebodys hair or other dishes. I hope i wont get ill because of it.

This is not only one of the few (most likely only), vegetarian /vegan /raw restaurant in Banja Luka, but also one of the best. Dishes are full of taste, healthy and well presented. The service is second to none: we felt really welcomed from the first moment. I would definitely recommend it to anyone, including non vegetarians

A "must" for all the food lovers in Banja Luka and most likely the only real vegetarian/vegan/raw restaurant in the city. This is food made with love and passion. Highly recommended.

We ordered way too much food with a vegan soup as a starter, followed by veggie burgers and a side portion of sweet potatoes, so I couldnt even finish my meal. I enjoyed all of it - one might argue it was all a bit blend, but I, for some reason, enjoy mild food. My favourite part of the meal was the hummus in my burger, which was creamy and very well seasoned.All this food business aside, the restaurant gets the highest mark from me for the staff and for how welcome they made us (and our screaming babyfeel. Smiles and kindness go a long way, so well definitely be coming back next time were in Banja Luka (or possibly even tomorrow).

Very stylish place with great food, helpful staff, theres nothing else like it in Banja Luka!

Really good food. International citchen. Many vegeterian dishes but also other food.

Amazing place in the park area. They serve healthy and delicious food. Worth stopping by and trying their special breakfast.

It is a beautiful restaurant which serves dishes with amazing taste. The service was top, friendly, helpful and perfect. I can recommend this food especially the omlet with truffle🔝. I dont know when I got something like that before... Atmosphere is peaceful so if youre close stop by and enjoy.Thanks for the best service.

Very good restaurant with many vegan options.

On Tripadviser we read about restaurant Zen, so we decided to go there. We had a very good experience with the food (very tastefuland also the service was good. I can reommend Zen to everybody who likes fresh tasteful and fair food!

Awesome fresh food and juices, nice crew. Will come again ✌️

Something different for a change. The local food is excellent, more on the heavy side, however at this place one can find delicious meals and desserts made of healthy ingredients and no sugar.

Good healthy food, in a friendly atmosphere, with excellent service. Great place for anyone who has special dietary requirements including, gluten free, vegan and vegetarian requirements, while still catering for health meat, fish and raw food.

One of rare smoke free places in Banja Luka, and even rarer with so many vegetarian and vegan options. We went there by chance and we were so positively surprised by the variety of fresh juices, organic coffees, salads, craft beers, desserts and food in general.A true gem in the city and a new spot to visit again!

no smoking. 😊 excellent food and drinks. waiter perfect. must visit again

Smoke free in Banks Luka. The Zen restaurant is a healthy choice where you can go healthy with poultry or without. The tomato soup and whole grain bread was excellent. The grit & nut salad was made fresh and a seriously good value for 2.50€.Our son really enjoyed the pasta on the kids menu. It features the local cheese and he devoured it.Get the local craft beer to avoid being too healthy.Great value in a spring day!

Great vegetarian and vegan restaurant. Space is very interesting, you have a lower and an upper floor, staff is friendly and ready to help. There are excellent craft beer choices and excellent raw cakes to choose from. Food is really tasty and nicely prepared so even if you are not into vegetarian food you will find it very interesting and appetizing. There are also some meat options like fish (tunaand poultry. Give it a try and give your palate some new experiences 😊

Purely amazing food. During my business trip I have visited ZEN several times to each breakfast, lunch and dinner and I was highly surprised. Food was always jar-dropping tasty and fresh. Simple ingredients creating inimitable, mouth watering dishes for a pretty low price.

Definitely the best restaurant with healthy food in Banja Luka! Even if you are a raw vegan there are plenty of options for you. The ambience is beautiful.

Gluten , dairy and sugar - free food for those who avoid this sort of food. Beautiful place, inside and out with pleasant staff. Also , the beverages are fresh, made of fruit and vegetables. The bad side it is a bit pricey, but definitely worth every penny.

Nice restaurants with a cool menu with mostly vegetarian/vegan dishes but also fish and chicken options. Appetizers and dessert were amazing yet the main dishes did not live up to the expectations. For example the porcini mushroom pasta was way too flavorful and "loaded". The daily vegan platter - suggested by the waiter - was below average. The triple chocolate cake (raw & veganwas delicious. I will certainly come back to try other dishes.

Amazing food and staff. It s a vegan gem ♡

Very very very good food and friendly stuff ❤

WOW! This place is a true gem !! After all the stodgy foods, pies and meats that are so heavily represented in restaurants around this city, Zen was such a wonderful and heart warming surprise. Light and very tasty food, wonderful and friendly staff and the owners who are hands on, passionate about healthy food and make sure it is prepared with care. I was most amazed to find Miso soup on their menu (absolutely delicious it wasand I am sure this must be the only place in the whole of the country that serves it. This is a must visit place. We will be back on our next visit to Banjaluka. Thank you so much !

Stumbled upon this place unintentionally but a great restaurant, serving a wide variety of vegan, vegetarian and healthy snacks and meals. The menu is clearly signed so that people know whether the food is appropriate for them (V, Ve, FIT etc.The staff were fantastic and food was nice. Also nicely set out decor with good ambience.

If you are looking for a healthy meal that is a bit different compared to other Bosnian places, go there. This time, we had an octopus with three types of rice and rice noodles with chicken, peanuts and curry sauce. Both were great. Also, pina colada smoothie is amazing choice. The prices are reasonable, the atmosphere nice while the service really slow.

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been. The service is good and the food - simply amazing. I visit Banja Luka about twice a year and from now on this restaurant will be on my “to do” list every single time 😄

I was so excited that I forgot to take photos! So here’s a photo of an amazing sugar free dessert. 😍 Whatever your diet is (meat, vegetarian, vegan, raw, etc), the most amazing owner/cook/waiter Boris will assist you with the menu where you’ll find some of the most diverse ingredients a meal in BiH can contain. All the food is prepared with a lot of love and commitment, and is also very healthy! We were a group of 10 traveling across the country for 7 days already, and we’ve all agreed this was the best food we had in a week! I highly recommend! ❤️

Zen has great choices for healthy food. Creative dishes and relaxing atmosphere. Very friendly staff! A nice break from the usual balkan food!

Totally loved this restaurant! As you can see there is a lot of variety! All the way from the appetizer to the dessert everything was delicious. The waiter Jovo (or Iovo - I ma sorry if I butchered your namewas amazing! Great customer service. When we come back to Banja Luka we will have to go back to this place :)

Excellent vegan and healthy food. Nice surroundings, good service. Beautiful restaurant.

Delicious and healthy food. Always adding some new specialties in the menu.

What a wonderful change from the endless ćevapi!Vegetarian and non-vegetarian fresh food and a range of juices and smoothies. We had the zen salad (veggie-filled and very deliciousand the spicy chicken burger (which could have been spicier but was very filling), juice and coffee.Would recommend a visit for plant eaters and meat eaters alike.

VEGAN LAVA CAKEThis place is the best deal in the city for anyone whos looking for healthy but tasty food. Great vegan options. Oh, and did I mention vegan lava cake? Must visit!!!

Lovely microbiotic-inspired food. Everything was served nicely, with decent portions and by pleasant staff. I would certainly return to try the kale chips, healthy pastas, and more.
