zuma

to be honest, despite loving zuma (oooooh that brunch!), i always stayed away from their miami spice menu. i never heard great things about the experience. well, not only did i love it, it’s been my favorite thus far!. coconut blanc manger. salmon & tuna tartare. spicy yellowtail roll. roasted beet salad

food came out super quick and the wait staff were extremely attentive. i ordered the spicy tuna roll and seabass sushimi and was underwhelmed with the flavours of both dishes. would still come back again to try a few of the other dishes!

before going to zuma i heard many things about it! only good things though, so my expectations were very high. and as it happened it didn't disappoint. as per usual, the best dish of the night was the black cod along side with their special desert (chocolate foundant) that was not on the menu, but our waitress was kind enough to advices on it.
the location was superb as well since we were next to the river.

zuma is a japanese restaurant with a contemporaneous flair (inspired by izakaya-style japanese dining) that has already successfully launched more than 10 locations worldwide. its food, décor and ambience make zuma a unique food venue in miami. aside from an extensive meal selection, zuma offers an excellent tasting menu and likewise it features a brunch like no other in the city. certainly zuma is one of the best restaurants in miami in spite of being somewhat pricey.

what we liked the most: tiger prawn

my first visit to zuma miami, and i can say that they have the best fusion cuisine i have ever tried, fabulous presentations, beautiful decor, and a great service. i will definitely come back if i visit miami any time soon

borsa'nın yerine açılmış. dekor oldukça nezih, çalışanlar sabırlı ve nazik. tempuralarına bayılıyorum. ama porsiyonlar rahmi koç'un tabiriyle kuş yemi gibi ama dünyanın ücretini ödüyorsunuz ? bir kadeh gövdeli kırmızı şarap istedim ama ne yazık ki öyle aman aman alternatif yok, tek tercih barbaresco. bir cabernet sauvignon bile yok ? grill ve sushi bar çok keyifli. terası da var ama güneşli havalarda perdeleri full kapandığı için yukarının açık olması etmiyor dışarıdaymışsınız hissi vermeye.. her dk gidilmez ama uğrayın derim..
ekleme (2019 aralık); gyoza var ya ördekli&mantarlı. bir lokmada bitireceksin o caanım sosa bana bana ?

yemekler süper idi. servis gayet iyi ve hızlı idi.

dekorasyonu çok güzel olmuş. dışarıda oturmamamıza rağmen teras kısmına bayıldım.

bar ekibi son derece cana yakın, işlerini çok iyi yapıyorlar ve hazırladıkları kokteyller çok güzel.

oldukça geniş bir şarap menüsü var. sommelier işine ve sattığı ürünlere son derece hakim.

i̇ki negatif:

1) üst kattaki karşılama ekibi hala kendini beğenmiş ve uzak tavırlar sergililiyor. bu alışkanlık ortaköy 'den buraya da ithal edilmiş. acilen düzelmesi lazım; son derece itici özellikle servis ettikleri müşteri kitlesi göz önüne alındığında

2) servis personelinin kendi arasında muhabbet alışkanlığı var ve masaya servisi zaman zaman aksatıyor (bizim masada böyle bir problem yok idi, son derece iyi servis aldık)

ortaköy'deki manzalı yerinden sonra i̇stinye park'taki yeni zuma harika olmuş. aşırı şık dekorasyonu ile çok havalı. ferah ve loş bir ortam. dışarı balkonu bence yazın favorisi olur. ana yemek cod fish en sevdiğim. bir de finaldeki tatlı ve sunum harika. zuma'ya yeni lokasyonunda başarılar. tabii ki fiyatlar yüksek.

one of the best food experiences i've ever had! pricey but amazing! worth the visit ;-))) wonderful decor, sophisticated decor and setting!!

a must experience, took my daughter for dinner and had their premium platter. the chef selects your meal for you. an 11 course dinner including desert. i'm usually not that bold especially in a restaurant that i've never been, but i'm so glad my date talked me into it. it was a shared meal and i can honestly say that one course was better than the other. i was simply wowed. worth every cent, and i'm certainly coming back. while the service was very good, and it's a beautiful place, it's great food. if your looking for a quite dinner this is not the place. two thumbs up to the chef.

went on my birthday dinner and was not a very pleasent experience. i and my wife were on vacation from india in miami and were recommended zuma by our hotel for a special dinner. so our table was booked for 8.30 pm and we finally got seating at 9.15 pm. didnt matter as we were having a nice time at the bar. we ordered the black cod with miso and my wife got a sharp bone in the fish while eating which is not expected at a restaurant of the quality and price as zuma. the server said he would replace and he apologized. after 7 to 10 min he came back and said he couldn't guarantee that the next black cod will be filleted properly and without bones as the server hadn't filetted it himself. wowww. so is it the server who fillets the fish. so he said you could skip the fish if you like. we then ordered scallops which took another 15 min to arrive while we were hungry. after that when we asked for pot rice the server said it will tk 25 min and then when we said get us some sushi roll quickly he said it will also take 15 min. when one has already had a bad experience then service and attention has to be better. while the food was nice whatever we had but then you expect better service. the senior management tried all damage control as we asked for the cheque after the scallops and wanted to leave. they offered us free desserts but we were not in the mood. great food and ambience but service needs to improve. maybe my case was a one off but it did happen.

what an unbelievable dining experience we had here last year while in town! our waitress lindsay was so down to earth and friendly and did a great job of surprising us with various food items as we had chosen to do the omakase menu. she tweaked it a little bit for us to ensure that some of her favorite items were brought to us and we loved them all! as we were leaving, gregory (the manager) came over to ensure our meal went well and we gave him our rave reviews. after chatting for a bit, he kindly offered to buy us a drink at the bar, very nice of him! he let us know that zuma may be opening restaurants in la or vegas soon and i was so glad to hear that. i will definitely be checking out any west coast openings as we live in san diego and don't make it to miami very often. but, every time i do make it to miami i'm heading to zuma!

i've to say i went there and didn't expect much but not only was i impressed by the service and overall presentation of the dishes the taste was incredible. highly recommended it. everything was very good, and tasteful. best night out!!!!

brunch. the brunch at zuma is excellent! delicious food and beautiful settings, make this place a great brunch, lunch or dinner spot!

horrible customer service. not only did they make the mistake of not making the reservation when i called but now they don't take ownership for it and correct the mistake.
