Zuma New York offers more than just an exceptional dining experience — it creates an immersive atmosphere where food, ambiance, and entertainment converge. While the focus is on its vibrant izakaya-style cuisine, Zuma enhances the evening with a dynamic energy, especially at night when the lighting, music, and bustling open kitchen create a lively dining environment. The restaurant occasionally hosts special events such as sake tastings, chef’s table experiences, and curated seasonal menus that bring a unique twist to the traditional Japanese dining experience. Combined with a stylish bar serving inventive cocktails, Zuma provides a social and sensory experience that blends sophisticated dining with engaging entertainment.
Zuma's menu is inspired by the informal dining style of izakayas, offering a variety of dishes designed to share. The restaurant features three kitchens: the main kitchen, the sushi counter, and the robata grill. Signature dishes include the black cod wrapped in hoba leaf, spicy tuna with crispy rice, and a selection of sashimi and sushi. The robata grill offers a range of skewers and grilled meats, adding a smoky depth to the flavors.
