The Scene
Zuma, which means ''running horse,'' showcases a striking red and black interior. Sleek black lacquered tables contrast sharply with red lanterns and a lipstick-red velvet bench that lines the length of the wall. For cool high-tech entertainment, small flat-screen TVs play Japanese anime films. Seats at the sushi bar offer prime views of the master chefs in action. The service, while polite, is on the slow side.
The Food
Serious sushi lovers will appreciate the chef's focus on freshness and artistry. The comprehensive menu has everything from nigiri sushi to sushi sashimi combinations. Along with the traditional rolls are some exotic varieties like the yuma gobo roll (mountain roof) and kampyo roll, marinated Japanese gourd. The Golden California roll is a deep-fried twist on the original. The namesake Zuma roll is a sight to behold: Alaskan snow crab, eel and avocado, topped with caviar.
