    Hamachi crudo
    Jay N.

    Came here after a recommendation from our hotels Concierge to continue celebrating our honeymoon eurotrip. Advertised to us as higher quality Asian fare and nothing else, we were open to give it a shot. Entering into the place with lower lighting, loud music, and a relatively chic vibe, we were happy to receive this recommendation. The restaurant was very busy. Once seated, we noticed it took a while for our waiter to get to us. After twenty minutes waiting I asked for our waiter to come to us. The drink options were very nice and imaginative. Well mixed and spirit forward. The menu is quite expansive and at times worrisome. So many options, both cooked and raw, concerning that the food would lack flavor and imagination. We ordered started, neat Skewers, iberico pork, tempura shrimp, mushrooms, and sashimi. I can't say that every dish was amazing but I can say that every bite was at least above average. To expand a little: the fish was fresh and perfectly cut, tempura fried and brought to the table immediately, mushrooms crispy and flavorful. The let down perhaps was the chicken skewers which were just well cooked but otherwise normal. Very pleased with the recommendation and would certainly return here to try other options.

    Fantastic restaurant. Alex was my bartender and offered next level service. Amazing drinks and food. He made the experience fantastic for me and will absolutely visit again!

    This is a beautiful restaurant perfect for dinner, an anniversary or birthday. We ordered the gyu no kushiyaki (beef skewers), piri kara hamachi (spicy yellowtail), piri kara maguro (spicy tuna) and california maki rolls. The rolls come with 6 pieces each and their presentation was fantastic. My favorite roll was the spicy tuna. The waiter was attentive and was always making sure we were taken care of. The crunchy hazelnut crunch bar and the chawan mushi desserts were delicious. I would definitely come here again.

    This place was nice. The music was quite loud so I definitely do not recommend to go on a date unless you're looking for a distraction. Our waitress is very attentive which was appreciated. The miso soup was delicious but it was served at the end of the meal. The edamame was perfectly steamed but a bit too much salt. This is shishito peppers were not my favorite quite undercooked and we sent them back. The sashimi was decent and so was the sushi. The seating was not super comfortable. My absolute favorite was desert!!! I was not expecting it to be soooo good but it was. Overall the place was good.

    I was prepared to pay the big bucks here for a friend's birthday celebration. I've been to a branch in Hong Kong but this one definitely had trendier vibes and the crowd was more lively. The food here is served izakaya style so portions are small so definitely get more plates to share. From the starters we tried, the seabass sashimi was most memorable. It came with the a yuzu truffle dressing, which was so good! They were also doing a wagyu beef special so we got the wagyu beef tataki with truffle ponzu and shaved truffles. I'm a sucker for ponzu sauce and truffles so this was amazing. Other things we ordered like the soft shell crab roll and assorted tempura were quite standard, although the rice to filling is really decent and they definitely did not skimp on the filling. We also got a complimentary birthday dessert so yay to free food at an expensive restaurant! Overall, we were happy with the food and service. Although not mind blowing for the price I was paying, everything here was delicious and fancy.

    Must have chocolate cake

    This is our regular spot in London. It's trendy, excellent food and people watching. As usual, we ordered bunch of sashimi, rib eye for appetizers followed by variety of sushi. All the sashimi is sooo good. Sushi is high quality little lacking on variety but it was enough after bunch of appetizers. Chocolate cake is must have with a scoop of ice cream.

    Love the vibe here. I've been to this one in London and the one in Istanbul. Both are great but the crowd at the one in London is more live. The food is great, and the service is wonderful. It's very pricey but I don't live here so I love coming when I'm visiting. It's a great overall experience and a really great spot to go for dinner before heading out for the night. All their dishes are really good, but honestly, we had too many bottles of sake for me to even recall the best dish LOL. If money isn't a thing, this is a great spot for weekly dinner, but if you're visiting from out of town or on a tight budget, definitely make a reservation here if you like a live, trendy dinner vibe. Can't wait to be back in London, I'll definitely be comic back to Zuma.

    Patio .... too cold and wet but nice area

    So after a crazy travel day.....9:45pm London time and my kid says we should go for sushi! We ended up in the London equivalent of Maestro's Ocean Club in Newport w/all the super fancy, botoxed up ppl. Then there's me in my baseball hat, flip flops w/my kids! We walked in & were greeted by the hostess staff that were as snotty as some of the patrons. After figuring out who the manager was & letting him know the staff at Park Tower @parktowerknightsbridge recommended us, we were seated at the sushi bar. All in all we waited about 40 minutes but we were lucky 2B served by Megan @meganouiille ... she was terrific. Honestly, this place was awesome! It was hip & trendy & had a great vibe w/great music .... bass boosted which my kids love! I'd rather be here w/my bff's in proper attire but hey....anything goes in travel mode! The spicy tuna roll had just the right amount of spice! The toro in the toro roll was light and melted in our mouths like butter. The California roll although typically average was A+ here. The tempura was not overly fried and a nice portion. The chicken skewers and wings were flavorful and delish! We sat in front of the grill watching all the meat and fish grill up before our eyes. Lastly, Megan recommended the chocolate caramel soufflé! OMG, one of the best desserts I ever ate! I highly recommend trying this place but even on a Wednesday night, if you don't make a reservation you may be SOL. Thanks Megan! You rock! Oh...... "and then I found 5 dollars ..... well pounds! @ Zuma London

    This bar has been at the top of my list since I discovered it 6 years ago. The signature cocktails…read moremenu has changed several times over the years, but the service is still top notch, and I'm happy to report that the newest cocktail menu is the best it's been since the Imagination menu when I first started coming here. The cocktails are all delicious, and live up to their exotic names and creative descriptions. My personal favorite is the Kentucky Gourmand, which is a tasty, peanut-buttery take on a classic Old Fashioned. It isn't too sweet, and still packs a punch, so if you enjoy your whiskey, this bad boy is for you. The menu offers a little something for everyone, and if the stronger drinks aren't your forté, then you might give the Cider Side or Popping Bubbles a try. Even their pickled martini seems to be making the rounds as one of the hottest drinks - no pun intended - on the menu. The food is still, thankfully, amongst the best bar food you'll ever have - if a bit pricey. And, the atmosphere blends swanky bar vibes with fancy living room chic, managing to be comfortable and ritzy, without being pretentious.

    Really quiet, but dark, spot in the Sofitel. Very very friendly bartenders who remember your name…read more Great selection of wines and beers and had a few snacks too. Just enjoyed sitting at the bar and listening and having a moment away from the crowds during our conference there! Thanks!
