Went for Sunday Brunch at Zuma. There are 2 types of set “unlimited” menu and if you’re just there for the sashimi I do recommend choosing the lesser menu. The food is good, miso cod is the best as well as the unique dessert selction.

What is not fun is good food will always be trumped by bad service. We were assigned a main server (taking orders, making sure orders are delivers) who seemed like they did not want to be there, always disappearing and took lifetimes to bring in tea order as well as an order not being delivered however charged. When our dessert was served within 5 minutes the check was pushed forward to a hand trying to pick ice cream with their spoon.

Too bad. Food is really good one just must not care about service to eat there. I do hope you are aligned with a good server and waitstaff.

Went with family of 4 for lunch, we all chose the Ebisu Business Lunch ($45/person). Selection of two appetizers were delicious, very fresh sashimi, especially the sea bass. Ribeye (cooked rare) was my favorite main course, there’s a $19 surcharge for the ribeye and black cod, so be aware. Wish the business lunch could include a desert, but had to add $9 for the desert.

Overall, the food quality was great and atmosphere was pleasant. You can also opt in for the $35 lunch option if you are on a budget.

We had our anniversary dinner here as it was one of our first date spot dinner places as the restaurant opened in 2019. The experience and food did not disappoint.
We had the signature omasake, with some cocktails. Each plate was prepared with care and attention and we loved every single bite.
Thank you all for the service!

Drooling thinking about our dining experience at Zuma! The food and service was too notch. We loved everything but in particular, the A5 waygu tenderloin special and the yellowfin sashimi were incredible

So my group and I mostly went to this place for drinks and appetizers so this review is based on that experience.

Firstly, the area was beautiful. Warm lighting and large wooden panels line the wall. The aesthetic felt modern and sleek with influence from Japan. The music was not overbearing and even when the restaurant was full, it never was loud.

The service was great. From the bartender to the waiters, everyone was kind and professional. They were patient and we never felt rushed to leave.

In terms of food and drinks, the biggest highlight were the drinks. If you're coming here, I would recommend ordering the cocktails with a few appetizers to snack on. All of them tasted delicious and unique and would be the main reason if/when I come back. The food was alo very good with a solid selection. As I mentioned earlier x most were appetizers but all the ones we ordered were tasted great with the exception of the tuna/salmon dip, but it was mostly an issue with texture for me.

The biggest issue for me was the price. As great of an experience as it was for me, the price was a bit much. I think the food was overpriced relative to the taste, portion, and experience. But if you're looking to impress and for a special occasion, I would recommend!
