Zuma , based in the Dubai International Financial Centre at the heart of the city, follows the Japanese Izakaya style of dining where food is served to share. The dishes are steadily brought to the table, creating an informal yet sophisticated style of eating and drinking with a contemporary twist.
Situated over 2 floors, and connected by a dramatic staircase and a dedicated guest elevator, the main dining area on the lower level allows a variety of seating options. The raised sushi level sits in the heart of the void, whilst the Robata Grill area gives a warm and intimate dining experience.

SUSHI & ROBATA COUNTER
The design was created by Tokyo-based Noriyoshi Muramatsu of Studio Gli, formerly of the worldrenowned design house, Super Potato. Zuma Dubai balances the six elements of fire, earth, water, air, wood and iron to achieve harmony, and the restaurant showcases hand carved granite counters, salvaged rusted-steel walls and a spectacular bamboo sculpture created from 450 wires and 350 bamboos.
Manned by our skilled chefs, the counters are spacious and interactive. At the Sushi Counter, our international chefs sculpt Sashimi over ice, preparing your meal before your eyes. The Robata Grill is the heart of the restaurant and keeps alive the tradition of Robata, which is the oldest form of Japanese cooking. It offers a selection of grilled fish, meat and vegetables. Zuma's menu offers something for everyone.
