The Review | Zuma – Emirates Woman

Zuma is renowned as Dubai’s ultimate dining destination where city slickers rub shoulders with the region’s elite and the occasional visiting A-list star.

With its impeccable service and buzzing atmosphere – every night of the week -whether you’re on a business lunch, first date or hosting pre-party drinks, Zuma never fails to impress.

Décor

Striking the perfect balance between traditional and modern, the décor makes for a sophisticated dining experience.

The vast premises was crafted by Tokyo based designer Nori-San and boasts a separate dining room on the first floor with a vibrant open bar and lounge on the second.

In keeping with Zuma tradition, this haven pays homage to the natural elements. Wood, granite and iron accent the sushi and robata counters, impressive sake bar and private dining room.

Food

Zuma stands for contemporary Japanese cuisine with a modern twist.

The founder, Rainer Becker spent 10 years in Tokyo, where he developed this unique dining concept. Based on the Izakaya premise, dishes are meant to be shared, Zuma has refined its casual dining style.

A feast for the eyes, guests should sample delicacies from the extensive sushi and sashimi menu with the highlight being the Chefs Selection where all fish is imported from Japan.

From the grill, try the wagyu beef and their famous black cod.
