Z Garden Meal Review
My favorite dish was easily the lemon shrimp as its grilled flavor enhances the Mediterranean experience. The amazing creamy lemon sauce was the cherry on top of this dish.
The beef shawarma was on the average side in terms of comparison to other Mediterranean spots. Besides the shrimp, this place is made to be special with its homemade hummus and sauce choices.

Z Garden Summary
I salute and highly applaud the wide range of food choices Z Garden put on its menu. They cater to everybody with their fresh and healthy options that children and adults can enjoy.
They allow vegetarians to enjoy just as much as the meat lovers on the keto diet. I really enjoyed this casual, outdoor eatery. Thank you to Nasir and the @zgardensantamonica team for the invite and kind hospitality!
