Visual Studio 2017 has an extension "Reset Zoom" by Mads Kristensen and it adds a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+0, Ctrl+0). https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.ResetZoom

By default, the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+0,Ctrl+0 but can be changed to be whatever you like.

I also have R# and the default shortcut did not show up for me but manually applying it worked.

Go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard and look for the command View.ZoomReset to change the keyboard shortcut.
