The ambience of the place is really simple, nothing over the top or the fanciest. Warm lights are ok, but it is too dim at the smoking area. Service, was a bit slow not the fastest. Each of us “had to request for a menu to see” didn’t get sommelier on time to decide on the wine. Coz he was busy. So can improve there. Food, starters were ok nothing over the top Main course , Spicy beef donburi with sesame, red chilli and sweet soy Miso marinated black cod donburi These 2 stood out and hands down must try. Chicken was a bit dry. Dessert - Chawan mushi is a choco lava cake what stood out was the cake was made of dark chocolate which was exceptionally yummy! Must try. Cocktail do try “big apple berry” (on the sweeter side) damn well done and wa (gin based) was perfect.

Great vibe, great food. As always at Zuma. Service could be more friendly. Wife and I used to come often - less so over the last couple of years - and were used of a better service, faster, kinder and more fun. Overall still a great experience. Rikka Tonics are great, Black Cod Miso well executed, pecan pie Sunday a must, One important improvement area though: please put back the chilli miso marinated beef ribs on the menu! Still would recommend Zuma in Dubai despite lower service quality relative to previous experiences.

I have been to many Zuma restaurants, but this one was one of the weaker experiences. Zuma locations usually offer great views and a stylish atmosphere, but this one felt quite average and did not really have a view. The food was also average and far too expensive for what was offered. We ordered several items from the special menu, and unfortunately they were disappointing as well. Overall, I would not recommend this location. It might be worth trying during lunchtime, as they may offer better value with lunch specials.

We finally tried the Ebisu business lunch at Zuma Dubai and it absolutely lived up to expectations. From the appetizers all the way to dessert, everything was beautifully executed. The steak was a standout, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Even the desserts impressed me, and I’m usually not someone who gravitates toward sweets, but I genuinely enjoyed them. For the quality and experience (service could have been warmer), the business lunch is definitely worth the money. A must-try, and we will definitely be back.

This was much better what we tried in Tokyo. It was an outstanding experience with top notch menu set full of unique dishes and flavors. Very few places can impress me so much. Nice done and highly recommended.
