This is so rare for the region! Zen Kitchen is VERY accommodating! They don’t just have questionably marked GF items on the menu, like many east or northeast texas locations. They have an entire separate preparation area and separate oven for their gluten free items!!! That means a gluten free pizza has its own dedicated prepared space and dedicated oven! People in the community of eating gluten free need to know this location is Celiac friendly, not just gluten free friendly. So if you’re traveling along I-20 in either direction, it’s only ~15 minutes roundtrip off the highway to make this beautiful stop! There’s ample parking around the restaurant, a GREAT outdoor space for kids to burn off some energy, especially if on a long car trip, and there’s ample indoor space as well! Obviously, you have quicker access from HWY 31, HWY 259, HWY 135, or HWY 42. Our party enjoyed two different pizzas and sandwich as well (sandwich not gluten free). If you’re loving in NE Texas, traveling between DFW and Louisiana, or anything of the like, please visit this amazing location! I selfishly don’t want them to go anywhere 🤩

Stopped by on our way back to the DFW. The staff were friendly, and have a good sense of humor. Lexi helped the cashier out when assisting her with replacing the regular chicken nuggets with grilled chicken in my Cobb salad. I have celiac’s disease so it was very accommodating of Lexi to assist with this, and I really appreciate it. I made a joke about my boyfriend not wanting the Chick Fil A sauce and both Lexi and the cashier laughed so on top of being super friendly and accommodating they have a great sense of humor. The food came out quick. I commend these ladies for a job well done. :)

They just don't have gluten free bread 😏, but other wise it's good.
