It's truly a great food experience at Zuma. They know what they're doing and you will not be disappointed. Best experience is at the bar where you sit and eat watching them prepare the food. The bar scene is also nice. Their cocktails are not badly done at all.

Great Restaurant, great food and atmosphere. We dined in Zuma on the evening of our engagment and I could not think of a better place to celebrate. The staff were friendly and the service excellent, we will definitely visit every time we come down to London. Can't speak highly enough.

My boyfriend and I were recommended Zuma so we went on Saturday night without booking. We were given an hour to wait, in which time we stood at the bar, had drinks and soaked up the atmosphere. We were seated at the bar in front of the grill watching the chefs cook the steak and seafood straight in front of us. Fantastic.



Would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes good food and a lively atmosphere - everyone was relaxed and having fun. It was very busy but this did not detract from the service or the friendly staff. We went straight from an inpromtu proposal to buying an engagement ring and then onto Zuma. I could not think of a better way to celebrate. Not cheap but very good value for the standard of food and the enviroment.

I went to Zuma with my family for my 21st. The food was fantastic and authentic Japanese and the service was impeccable. Each time I took a sip from either of my glasses it was refilled for me as I put it back to the table.


The atmosphere at Zuma was fantastic and really buzzing. The crispy squid, black cod and sea bass were the picks from our selection. Will definitely go there again. On the table next to us was none other than Cilla and Cliff.

Zuma was an appalling experience from start to finish. We had a bad table tucked away at the back of a noisy restaurant next to the waiters station thinking that that might at least mean attentive service. However, the overpriced wine took 15 minutes to arrive and then was left unopened for a further 10. The indifferent waiter recommended a selection of sushi which would have been totally inadequate for 4 diners even if they hadn’t had to wait nearly 40 minutes for its luke warm limp arrival.



This, interestingly, was preceded by the appearance of one of our party’s main courses. Numerous waiters experienced problems with the space time continum as ‘it’ll just be two minutes’ stretched into 5, 10, 20 minutes for the various constituent parts of our main course. The signature Zuma black cod was beautifully presented but completely lacking in taste. When the rice and vegetables finally arrived they were cold and overcooked – a challenging feat that chef and waiting staff must have conspired to achieve.



Our very polite but increasingly frustrated complaints were met with apathy and disinterest, and when the manager deigned to appear she feigned shock at the situation and promised to investigate. I can only assume that investigation is still continuing as, apart from waiving the extortionate service charge, she took great care to avoid any further interaction. Perhaps the presence of 'celebrity chef' Anthony Worrall-Thompson and the fawning that entailed over-stretched the capabilities of the plentiful, but ineffective staff. A £200+ lunch bill for 4 disillusioned diners added the final insult at Zuma.

Zuma is a great restaurant serving sublime food. We grazed for two hours, seated at the sushi counter, and had a most memorable lunch. Service impeccable. Zuma's not cheap, but worth every penny.

What a great place Zuma is. I was extremely impressed and unfortunately will have to compare every other restaurant to Zuma from now on.

The food was awesome, especially the soft shelled crab. I could go into more detail but words can't describe. Very trendy but not pretentious. A good place to go to before you start your weekend.

Sensational. The food at Zuma is just out of this world. The atmosphere is really buzzing. Don't go if you want quiet and intimate.

Having said that, the private party areas at the back of Zuma are perfect but the main restaurant bit is very lively. There's a real sense of being somewhere special.
