Riyadh’s culinary scene is about to get a major upgrade this October with the arrival of the world-renowned Japanese restaurant, Zuma. Known for its exquisite dining experiences and celebrity fans, Zuma is setting up shop in the prestigious King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD).

Zuma’s journey began in 2002 when Reiner Becker opened the first restaurant in London followed by its sister restaurant, ROKA, in 2004. These London-based eateries quickly gained international acclaim, paving the way for Zuma locations in cities like Abu Dhabi, Doha, Cannes, Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and more.

Zuma has already teased Riyadh’s food lovers with a pop-up during the 2021 Riyadh Season. This year, it’s making a permanent mark. The new restaurant is set to be the largest Zuma in the world, spread over multiple floors, and promises to offer not just amazing food and drinks, but also top-notch service and a unique dining atmosphere inspired by both Japan and KAFD.

The menu at Zuma Riyadh will be a feast for the senses, showcasing the rich and diverse flavors of Japanese izakaya cuisine including Zuma’s signature dish, the Miso Marinated Black Cod.

The opening date has not been revealed yet. Stay tuned to find out more!
