The food is always incredible. Went above and beyond to accommodate my food allergies. Thanks for a great evening

Omakase is the only way to go. The best tasting menu. You won't be disappointed. Each course is a high-roller. The best meal I've had in years! read more

Zuma - Wagyu to die for - Japanese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I've been waiting to try this place for months after multiple IG influencers highly recommended it. I will say it took FOREVER to obtain a reservation. I had to ask for help from the cosmopolitan concierge. I was told to make a reservation for more than 2 people so it will finally pop up online. I also called twice over the phone for 2 people & I was told it was completely booked. The moment I called for 3 people or switched the online reservation for 3, multiple spots popped up. I get it. This is a very popular & busy restaurant. I just wish it would be a little more friendly towards a party of 2. We ended up making a reservation for a party of 3 for my husband's birthday. His sister ended up getting sick, but we wanted to continue with this long awaited dinner. When we arrived the boulevard towers were completely shut down. All traffic were directed to park towards the Chelsea towers & use their elevators. I told my husband to call to make sure our reservation was still good. We understand there is a 15 minute grace period. We finally got there on the dot even after all the delays of the elevators being closed. Once we got there, we gave our names. One employee even said that 2 tables were opening up. The moment my Husband mentioned that our 3rd party was not coming, the hostess changed her attitude. All of a sudden, there were NO tables available until an hour and a half out. We asked why & she explained that we fell out of the grace period, which wasn't true. We explained the elevator situation & it didn't matter We made our way to the concierge since they have been helping my husband & I make these reservations. We explained the situation. Their manager had to talk to the manager of Zuma & we suddenly received a text that a table was ready even when the hostess said it would be an hour and a half. I'm so thankful we knew someone with concierge to help us finally get seated So now seated at the high top area, which is fine. I was just so dang happy to sit down & celebrate my husband's birthday. It took me my drink to finally relax & enjoy my time there. Alonso was so friendly, accommodating, & very personable. He was a breath of fresh air compared to what we experienced at first. We've been eyeing this place for months & were told to do the omakase so we did just that. 2 signatures for $138/person. It was A LOT, but in an amazing over abundance type of way. One of the best & worth it omakases ever. We were surprised when Alonso told us we were only entering the 2nd course! We definitely slowed down after the sushi/sashimi portion. Once you get to the main entree part, they are able to box those portions so you don't have to force yourself trying to finish. At the end we had a birthday dessert with a variety of assorted exotic fruit, passion fruit chawamushi, & a key lime/yuzu type of cheesecake. It was all so refreshing! The portions were perfect, flavorful, and beautiful. There was not one dish I didn't like. I wanted to eat each plate clean! We pretty much did. Ambiance was fantastic & such a vibe! Thank you to Alonso for making my husband's birthday such a treat. Thank you to the Cosmopolitan concierge for helping us get seated. You know who you are. You all are amazing & we are grateful for such kind people! read more

"Very busy restaurant. Make sure you have reservations. We did for our Tuesday visit, and the restaurant was packed. The restaurant is very loud and bustling. We were seated at the prep bar for grilled food, and it was fun to watch the chefs at work. The menu is great, but our food didn't always live up to our expectations. My husband's sashimi was very good. His pork belly skewer was too spicy and very fatty. His flank steak order was well prepared but extremely over-salted. My salmon teriyaki was delicious but my wagyu gyoza was pretty tasteless and my sushi roll was tiny and unimpressive. We just kinda expected more attention to detail. read more

Definitely one of the most enjoyable meals in recent memory!! My wife and I ate here recently to celebrate her birthday. Zuma pretty much fits the vibe as any of the other fine dining restaurants located inside the Cosmo.....think glitz, glam, with a sprinkle of nightclub. The cuisine here is described as "Japanese fusion," basically authentic Japanese with a contemporary twist. The best way I describe the place to people who have never been is telling them the food is similar to Nobu's. But that is where the similarities end. Compared to Nobu, I found the food at Zuma to be much more flavorful, better proportioned, and just overall a better dining experience. We wife and I both opted on the premium omakase set for $168pp. While we waited for the first course to come out we both ordered some cocktails. I got the "Burning history" and my wife got the lychee martini. Both were expertly crafted, nice and stiff without being overly sweet. I had seen it before on social media and knew I had to order it. The bartender will bring a whiskey barrel stave to your table and blowtorch it. They capture the smoke in your glass and then add the cocktail of Suntory whiskey, ginger, honey, yuzu, and egg whites. Absolutely delicious, one of my all time favorite cocktails. My wife and I both loved our cocktails so much we ended up ordering another round before dinner's end. Now on to the food! The premium omakase was 10 courses and we felt it was the perfect amount of food without being still hungry or overly stuffed. Highlights were definitely the toro tartare with caviar, the nigiri and sashimi platter, the chili ponzu ribeye, and the Chilean seabass. All were to die for as they say....haha. All in all it was a very pleasant dining experience, from start to finish! We're already looking forward to when we can return here!! Highly recommended! read more

Surprisingly authentic yet modernized Japanese food from German born Rainier Becker who won chef of the year in 2004 and has a prestigious culinary history. It's sushi and izakaya style food for decent prices. We came for a friends birthday and our party did omakase style, it was $168 per person and the variety, quality, and amount of food was stunning. It was easily 10 courses and we thought we were almost done after the appetizers. The standout was the miso marinated black cod cooked in a leaf, it was the best black cod I've ever had. Perfectly cooked and tender with a delicate yet savory taste and with a nice miso crust. Loved it. Another thing that was amazing was the dessert platter. 4 different kinds of dessert pastries, sorbet, and fruit. The yuzu "key lime" pie was a creative reimagining on a crunchy graham cracker crust. Overall presentation and service were very nice, every dish looked appetizing and the water and sake were constantly filled covertly and non obtrusively by the staff. Big tip is they have real wasabi that you can order, freshly made right at your table. read more

Zuma served us an excellent food, definitely delicious everything tested, but, is inaceptable that manager came to our table with our check saying that we have to leave as they needed the table. At that moment we still were eating, drinking and waiting for one more plate pending to serve. Or she has to be retrained about how to treat with customers, because, more customers with same experience may not come back and worse, may not recommend Zuma because of employees, nit because of great food and nice ambient. read more

This place never disappoints! Take high-quality sushi and sashimi, combined with other funky Asian treats (like the Tuna-Salmon tartare... like omg), and then something as mundane as a baked potato jazzed up with shiso butter and sansho lime salt...oh and almost forgot, cool drinks like a Chili Passion Margarita and an Art Deco Cosmo...and you've got an amazing night out on the Strip! Oh yeah and some cool dance/lounge music in the background as a soundtrack doesn't hurt either! Highly highly recommend you check out Zuma- and if you can, ask to sit at the chef bar for a chance to see Chef Simon make culinary sushi magic right before your eyes! read more

Zuma offers great sushi, food, and drinks. The ambiance and service was excellent! Appetizers: - Shishito peppers: Always a nice appetizer to order. The sauce on the side pairs well with the peppers. MUST order this. - Jagaimo no marugoto robata yaki, (roasted potato with shiso butter and sansho lime salt). The flavors were exotic and the house-made butter was phenomenal. The dish is on the citrusy side! Sushi: - 9 piece set nigiri - (a variety of different fishes). This is definitely one of my favorite nigiris sets. Each fish was fresh, tasty, and melted right in your mouth. - 2 pieces nigiri sets - I ordered extra salmon and tuna pieces because they were my favorite from the nigiri set. - Watari gani maki roll (dynamite spider roll with soft shell crab, chili, wasabi tobiko mayo). The roll didn't really stand out as it was pretty simple. I wouldn't order it again. Drinks: I recommend the raspberry & passion fruit martini & chilly passion fruit margarita. Both of the drinks were refreshing, light, and not overpowering. read more

Dinner at Zuma our first night in Las Vegas was very good. But if I'm being honest, brutally expensive. I knew what I was getting ourselves into before hand. It's just when that bill comes around and it's $500.00 for three people, ouch! Our order- * Seared tuna with chili daikon and ponzu sauce 22 * Salmon nigiri torched (2) 19/38 * Yellowtail nigiri (2) 15/30 * Spicy tuna roll with green chili , spicy mayo and tobiko 22 * Sake marinated chicken wings, sea salt and lime 17 * Roasted potato with shiso butter and lime 16 * Black cod marinated in saikyo miso wrapped in hoba leaf 48 * 8oz Rib eye steak with wafu sauce and garlic crisps* 47 * Roasted Lobster with shiso ponzu butter. 87 * Green tea and banana cake, coconut ice cream, peanuts and toffee sauce 15 I ordered a Sapporo and some hot sake. The sake ended up costing $55.00. Nothing special, just hot sake like we would get at our local sushi bar. That was way over priced. Best thing we ate was the 8oz Rib eye steak. It was wonderful. Service was great. Will we be back? No. It was good, just not $500.00 good. Scarpetta remains our favorite restaurant at the Cosmopolitan. read more

This one is a tough 4.75/5 stars It was great, but considering the price and other amazing restaurants in Vegas the taste just wasn't a 5/5. They gave a ton of courses & you left feeling full and the value is definitely there for the price. Desert was a definite 5/5! The ambiance was great - very cool vibe; huge bar and well decorated. Service was fast and prompt as the food came out from 3 kitchens. We opted for the Omakase Premium ($178 each); and while each dish was good nothing was outstanding that left you craving more. read more

Happy Yelping! read more

Preface with saying... the food & atmosphere are amazing!!! We went with a group of 6 the other night, waitress mentioned "omakase" would be the way to go and that they had 3 levels at 3 different pricings. We all agreed that would be the way to go and told the waitress we would go with the first standard option (lowest) of the three. So the food starts rolling in, all tasty and amazing. Being omakase you don't know what will be coming through but it kept coming and all tasty. Bill came at the end and low and behold.... nearly $2,600 later we were done with dinner. We were not happy about this nor expecting this. We were the last table there our waitress and "miraculously" left without any goodbye or acknowledgment and we were stuck with this bill. We brought this up with those who were still working at the restaurant and they wouldn't/couldn't do anything about it. Wish I didn't have to write this review as the food, ambiance and drinks were great. But, it is what it is at this point and want to make sure others do not get stuck in the situation we were put in! So more of a "BUYER BEWARE!!!!" If the food wasn't so damn good this would be a 1 star review. read more

Amazinggggg flavors that will definitely make every penny spent worth it. If you're looking to do a bit of upscale dining in vegas, this place is an absolute top pick! Of course, making a reservation here is a must. We came on a busy weekend for early dinner and we were seated promptly. They were originally giving us a table towards the back but we asked for a better seat and they kindly gave us one we requested. The service is good and attentive. Had the skirt steak - sooooo delicious, the meat melts like butter and the chimichurri sauce is to die for. We also had the black cod - this is cooked to perfection!! A must-try. The makis were super good as well, although I won't order it again since the other things we got were better IMO. We also got the pork belly skewers as a final item - very flavorful and just the right amount of fat to meat. we shared everything between 3 people and it was plenty of food for us. For drinks - I tried the lychee martini. Very smooth and refreshing. Next time I'm in vegas, I'll definitely skip the buffets and head straight here read more

Went here for dinner last night for a friend's birthday and OH MY GOSH! Definitely one of the best dinners I've ever had. My husband & I have been to Zuma before but only for brunch. We decided to try the Omakase menu and it did not disappoint! Each course was more delicious than the last and we were stuffed at the end of it! My favorite was probably the king crab. I don't know what kind of sauce it came with but, man, it was delicious. I also really liked the tempura sea bass - crispy and cooked to perfection!! The ribeye we got towards the end was also delicious, but we were so full by that point! The dessert platter was phenomenal- I really liked the banana bread/cake it came with. The service was awesome, food was out of this world, and the sake we had to drink was a perfect pairing! read more

Food was excellent, service was meh. They forgot the coffees that we ordered and we were waiting on them for about 20 minutes before someone came by and told us they were never entered.

I got to dine here for a conference dinner (not on my dime) and it was probably the best dining experience I've had. Definitely out of my typical budget, but the food was amazing. We did a sort of tasting menu (don't remember the Japanese word it was) with four courses and got to try all kinds of things. The only thing I didn't like was the lobster. But everything else was delectable. Our server was able to explain everything and give us recommendations and made the experience exceptional. It was a bit too loud sometimes to hear others at my table over other guests and the music, but again - it was tremendous. If you want some Japanese that isn't just sushi I would recommend this place - if you can afford it. read more

Food: we did 100% sushi. All the items we ordered and our servers suggested items were delicious. I would have to say it would have been even better if the rice had some su (sushi rice special vinegar) on it. The fresh wasabi was an added was a fantastic edition. Service: impeccable Ambiance: a little loud but good overall read more

Had a nice time with friends but my rating is reflective of the service and value. Our server was pretty inattentive and she was defensive when we brought comments her way. For example, we mentioned that the cape cod drink tasted like it didn't have any alcohol and her response was just - 'we measure it, want to get a double instead?' Food was brought out in an unusual order where some got their main dish and others waited 10+ min. Food overall tasted good but items were overpriced (bowl of under cooked rice was $5, old fashioned $22). It's a louder place, but that's ok - and we would go back if the service was better. read more

Excellent dining experience at Zuma with their Premium Omakase coupled with Wagyu Upgrade! So much food for the value that left me satisfied and stuffed from the high quality fish and meats. Service was amazing and the staff very friendly. Our server made sure the table was always clean and water always topped off. Definitely a trendy restaurant designed for a great dining experience. The decor is very modern with a lot of high end wood finishes and open kitchen format. There is also bar seating in case the restaurant is full during their peak dining hours. Amazing food coupled with a great ambience makes this the perfect date spot! read more

First off, amazing environment and very friendly staff. They were very accomidating and had really good recommendations. We ordered the Omakase, which has to be ordered for the entire table, minimum of 2 people. It is a 10 course meal. And...EVER SINGLE ONE of them was delicious! I was enjoying myself so much, I forgot to ask the name of each dish. The last dish was an amazing dessert tower. I also had a very nice japanese whisky on the side. It is definatly not cheap, but well worth the money and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy up-scale dining. read more

Amazing food. I went here for my birthday dinner; this place is in the Cosmopolitan hotel. It's a really trendy restaurant, so make sure you book a month in advance. I ordered an espresso martini, and it was the best one I've had in my life! We ordered the miso marinated cod and Chilean sea bass; the Chilean sea bass was really good but it paled in comparison to how amazing the miso marinated cod was. It was so full of flavor, so soft, so rich... I'll be thinking about that meal for the rest of my life. I had a sushi roll here, but it was pretty forgettable. We sat next to the chef's table; Snoop (a chef working there) was really nice to us and so cool to talk to! He gave us a scallop to sample, and it was so buttery and melted in my mouth. I'm grateful for establishments that have good service and operate from a place of generosity and not paucity. I had to ask my waitress for a birthday dessert, which sort of irked me because the table next to me was celebrating a birthday and her waiter told her that there was a birthday dessert option. However, that chocolate cake was perfect; it had a hazelnut filling that was to die for. I would definitely go again! 4.3/5 stars. read more

HAPPY HOUR REVIEW We were on the search for great happy hour deals during our stay in Vegas and heard great things about Zuma. There happy hour is from 5:30-7pm M-F at the bar and includes delicious bites as well as their signature cocktails. We tried both the lychee rose and the grapefruit raspberry martini. Oh my goodness, these were delicious! I love the flavor combinations and they were dangerously easy to drink. We also tried the spritzer, which was grapefruit flavored. I was surprised to see a large grapefruit slice in the drink. This was delicious and super refreshing. Sadly, we didn't get to try as much food as I would've liked, but we did order the California roll which had real king crab, unlike the fake krabmeat in most California roll. This by far, was the best sushi roll that I've ever had. The king crab was so juicy and sweet. The tobiko added a beautiful crunch on the exterior. Rice was seasoned perfectly. This is a must try if you're here for happy hour! I would definitely recommend coming early, as seats do fill up. Happy hour starts at 5:30pm but the restaurant opens at 5pm. We got there at 5:30 and all of the seats at the bar were already taken. It is a popular place for a good reason! read more

My boyfriend and I decided to check this place out. The restaurant was very cool! The ambiance was great too, very detailed place and excellent staff. Our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The drinks were also very cool. I heard from a worker at the cosmopolitan to order the mashed potatoes. They were probably the best I ever had lol. They bring out the ingredients and mix the mash potatoes right in front of you. So neat! Nice restaurant for special occasions. I would definitely return and recommend. The dessert was also amazing. Definitely recommend getting the cheesecake sorbet dessert. read more

After reading about Chef Rainer and Chef Nobu being friends for three decades I knew I had to try Zuma! John was happy to tell us about the restaurant and the menu since it was our first time there. I wasn't sure which martini to order, thankfully John recommended the Raspberry and Passion Fruit Martini. I really enjoyed it and ordered another. My favorite was the Sliced Yellowtail. It was buttery and the pickled garlic gave it a nice kick. The Roasted Potato was a surprise. I was not expecting it to have so much flavor. We originally ordered it for our daughter but she wasn't interested and so I ended up finishing it.... pretty quickly. The Ribeye was superb and cooked just right. I made reservations a month ahead for a weekday, even so I had to put in a request because it was all booked. Luckily my request got confirmed. read more

Vegas + Japanese = Glitzy glamorous steak & sushi galore Now, I have yet to visit Japan, but Zuma was basically the best Japanese steakhouse I have ever been to. I loved the decor and overall comfortable classic Vegas vibes of this place. The service was wonderful, my double espresso martini with lil square of Zuma stamped chocolate was delectable, and the food was out of this world. This is now a must visit every time I visit Vegas.

Zuma is exactly what you expect for a nice dinner out in Vegas. You're paying a premium for the vibe and ambiance and good, not amazing food. Like others have noted, most items are brought out with some performance aspect. Both cocktails came out with some version of lighting it on fire etc. Again, everything we ordered from the cocktails to food was yummy and enjoyable. The Rice Hot Pot with truffle was especially tasty but of course came with a high price tag. Overall, I would recommend this place for a decent meal with a vibe, but wouldn't say it's a spot that keeps me coming back for more read more

Came here in a Friday night, reservations were easy to get on opentable. We were seated up front by the bar, it's got a cool vibe, music was a little loud, but maybe I'm getting to old We ordered several dishes as it's a tapas situation. We thought about doing the preset menu but they dont switch it up based on preferences (I don't eat fish) The drinks were fantastic- I had the martini. The hanger steak was great, the wagu "sushi" roll was amazing. The asparagus wasn't my favorite but my husband loved them. He also LOVED the salmon/tuna with caviar tartar. Also the dessert tray was amazing! Pricy but worth it read more

Spontaneous Sunday night dinner at Zuma. We were seated ASAP. Service however is a little slow but once ordered, food comes out fast. It's family style ordering of dishes. This place is pricey as expected on the strip and I expected from previous experience in the Miami location. I ordered the Hachicko cocktail which was great and mainly had grapefruit flavor. We ordered edamame (it's edamame not much can go wrong... crispy cooked with crushed sea salt), chef large selection of nigiri (excellent), salmon and tuna tartare (tuna is so good that it makes salmon look meh), California roll, salmon roll (both standard good not outstanding). Excellent order for 2 to be both pretty full. Great night. Beautiful interior and seating, covid protective measures in place (every table has cute little sanitizer bottles). read more
