Zuma, Japanese restaurant in City of Westminster, United Kingdom.
Zuma is a Japanese restaurant in Westminster featuring three distinct kitchen areas where chefs prepare food in view of guests. The sushi counter, robata grill, and main kitchen work together to offer a complete dining experience.
Established in the early 2000s, this restaurant emerged from a vision to bring contemporary Japanese cuisine to London. The concept was built on introducing London diners to the open-kitchen format and charcoal-grilling traditions of modern Japan.
The robata grill brings Japanese charcoal-cooking traditions to the dining experience, creating a connection between ancient techniques and London's contemporary food culture.
The restaurant is centrally located in Westminster with easy access by public transport. Booking ahead is recommended, especially for weekend evenings and dinner service.
Chefs work directly in front of diners at all three kitchen stations, turning meal preparation into a performance. This open format allows guests to watch precise hand techniques and understand the craftsmanship behind each component.
