Had our favored Miso Black Cod and Wagyu Beef and salmon tartare. Also our favorite crab salad and shrimp tempura - I have to highlight that Mr. Arthur the floor manager was such an amazing host to us and made sure we had such a wonderful experience, much appreciation to his kindness.

Very cool you have to be elegant otherwise they won't let you in. This place has a dress code

Go on, treat yourself to a culinary experience 2nd to none!

Every aspect of the Zuma experience is pure class, from arriving at the lobby downstairs where you knew you were into something special, to the table staff who were highly knowledgeable, friendly with an attention to detail, to the tsunami of food courses which were both visually courses matched by a palatable experience, and just when you thought it couldn't get any better, it was rounded off with a series of desserts that were breathtaking all of which deposited themselves straight to your hips but it's worth every second.

Highly recommended, but book early!

I love this place. Here twice already. Tasty. The sound is high quality, I like the music. The contingent is amazing! The prices are decent, Japanese cuisine is the best

The service is amazing and the ambiance of the restaurant is great.
Definitely the best Japanese restaurant I have ever visited!

Fantastic vibes

Sushi always the best.
My Thursday lunch spot every week for the last 3 weeks.

Great ambiance

I thought it was a Japanese restaurant, well the sushi wasn’t good. One star for the wonderful service.

Easily one of the best restaurants in the city, and have yet to find any dish on their menu that is not delicious
Love their charred edamame, Beef tataki with truffle, and the beef maki rolls

Went for a quick lunch, the options are really good and generous, the wagyu steak perfectly cooked served with truffle sauce and ponzu, service was quick and great, loved every bit of it.

I have been going to this place for more than ten years now and it has always been consistent in terms of food quality, service and ambiance. It's expensive, but it truly worths it. A must in fine dining in Dubai.

Average brunch, its more like a set menu with takeaway wooden chopsticks. Expect great service at the start, but as the afternoon progresses they start limiting your food and drinks. The food was flavourful but when you request additional items they tell you to wait so that you can experience the full course of flavours (that's fair) but then later they no longer have or it is finished. Really disappointing. Would not recommend for a brunch. There are much better food brunch options in Dubai.

Zuma didn't disappoint. Everything on point, really good advice on both the menu and wine list. They didn't push us to leave the table (we even had it 30min longer) and had some great cocktails in the bar after with a nice vibe going on there!

Based in Dubai was witnessed progress of the places. Zuma has proven it's name and quality among Middle East.

Atmosphere excellent,
Ambiance perfect
Bartenders behavior frustrating, so many managers on the floor, their presence useless.

Truly superlative - every time. The quality of the food - all of it, is astonishing. Black Cod. Awesome!
22 November 2021 18:14
I would put 6 stars if I could!
From the place, to the food and service and to the music, everything was spot on!

Spectacular vibes and even more spectacular food.
The steak was indescribable!
We tried a new dessert but I’m not entirely sure what it’s called, it consisted of sweet potato ice-cream and caramel wafer, it was so so delicious!

We went to Zuma for lunch w colleagues to celebrate birthdays and wedding anniversaries. This place serves Japanese cuisine. It is incredible. Atmosphere and vibes are pleasant. The servers were attentive to customer’s needs. Every meal I ate left a gastronimical experience. And since it was my first time to try it there, I went w what were recommended.

We had 2 starters and 1 main course (inclusive of miso soup) and had one or 2 a la carte orders. We had a salad, cold dishes and signature dishes. The hotpot mushroom risotto was exceptionally tasty! By the time that order came, I already had my fill but I still tried it and it did not disappoint at all. I highly recommend that dish.

Even it was lunch time, we had wine and cocktail because why not?:) Chili passionfruit martini was my fave! A must-try! Overall, Zuma is really great for value of money. I’d definitely come back.

I was here for the 1st time 4.5 years ago and I remember how delicious was food. This time I was disappointed a bit. I ordered chicken wings with herbs and lime. They were oversalted. And they did not smell really good. Tofu was much better. Zuma has tiny choice of beer. Asahi and one more (kind of ale). Do you know that Japanese beer is really good thing and they actually have plenty of beer brands. Japanese drink beer ever day and it goes perfectly with sushi and sashimi. So why do you have such a bad choice of it in Japanese restaurant?
15 October 2021 6:44
Unfortunately not the Zuma that I know.we came for drinks and every 5 minutes we get an awful smell of fish cooked. The music and atmosphere were amazing.
07 July 2021 14:30
I have tried Zuma in Istanbul, and wanted to see here as well. I did not disappoint at all. Food was really good, and the staff were very kind. I went there 2 times!
Every starter and main course dish faultless and above the competition (nobu, hakkasan etc.) Staff always running around to top up your drink and clear plates - attentive without being overbearing.
We can't wait to go back!
01 July 2021 8:22
Price quality. Also some of the worst service I've had in DIFC. Food is quire average at very high price.
20 May 2021 14:36
Such a bad experience! First of all the food late secondly extremely overpriced in comparison to London branch! The service was just disappointing!

I would like my money back

One of the best dining experiences to be had in Dubai. Zuma never disappoints, the quality is always high, in food and in service. The atmosphere is brilliant, vibrant and lively. The chilled out beats only help to make it a great spot for a night out to dine. The food is delicious, all thriller and no filler. Constantly amazed by the consistency of the cuisine here. A culinary highlight and a must when in Dubai.

I wanted to give more like a 2.5 but I am unsure how to do so. Food was very mixed, being heavy and oily or delicious. But where they did mess up it was horrible. The corn was very very oily and hard to swallow without feeling sick, there was a potato dish that, after mashed with tons of lime, was hard to swallow because that lime along with the butter and oil that’s supposed to be there turned the potato soggy and just disgusting. I will say their desserts are pretty good, but for a full meal I would not come here.

Edit: My group did not see how good/bad the service at the bar was.
23 April 2020 19:55
Unapologetic with the DJ blasting really loud and good drum based trance.

Come for the scene, stay for the miso black cod and chocolate fondant

Try not to wince when the check arrives!
19 April 2020 17:59
Amazing dining experience. I have been to many Zuma's internationally and of course, Dubai wins.
17 April 2020 10:11
Well. I have to give a credit for the service and staff which they were nice.
Atmosphere of place was also nice.
Normal view.
I dont like very low light restaurants, light should be more adequate
The low rating actually is regarding the value compared to quality and quantity of food
What is the point to go to a restaurant that you pay a lot of money but you still dont feel full stomach? !
Too expensive compared to portion of what we ordered and the taste also
Example.
Crab salad was barely any crabs in it! And taste wasnt good actually they ruined what crab salad is
Sushi I ordered was very normal (I had much better in other restaurants)
Tartar was good to look at but still was normal tatse
I ordered passion fruit mixture which the whole mixture was wrong and taste below normal
Still I was hungry so I ordered ribs.the ribs itself was good but the topping on it ruin it
You may use a fine meats in your menu but if you dont know how to mix it with other ingredients then it's a total waste.
I guess it's a place for who is looking for alcoholic drinks and to show off
Food lovers stay away from here.

To the management of Zuma, am on holiday in Dubai for few days and all my freinds recommended Zuma, went with one of my freinds last Thursday, you have a bartender which is very rude serves only ladies and offer them free drinks, I understand that his job is to entertain ladies but we are guests as well, not sure if he is Italian or Spanish, the other tall guy white skin looks like Serbian is amazing thanks to him we managed to get few drinks.
28 March 2020 12:05
The best lettuce salad I had, it’s not mentioned in the menu I guess. Their spicy beef is good too
25 March 2020 7:32
Really great for lunch. The food is good, and the place has a nice atmosphere. The staff is nice and friendly. Quality is consistent with other branches as well.
15 March 2020 21:21
Great good great place ok service but way over priced frankly. A ncie evening vibe and well located ideal for entertaining guests but at a very high cost as there are many other better options but their food is great so I suggest going once I a while
08 March 2020 10:04
I want to specially thanks to a staff called (Jamilya). It was our first time visiting Zuma. I knew that in Hong Kong they also have one, but we didn’t have chance to visit the one in HK. The foods was so nice and the staff (Jamilya) she helped us to selected the menu based on our background and experience. All her choice was so matched to us! If we order without her help, I’m sure we may have wrong choice. I highly recommend the lamb and beef After our first experience with Zuma Dubai, I’m sure I’ll visit Zuma Hong Kong in coming future!
