Experience Zuzu

We booked dinner to celebrate 2 birthdays and had a very memorable experience. Mo warmly greeted us at the door and checked in on us throughout our dinner as well as provided a birthday surprise dessert but more on that later. Our server was LaDarrius who provided friendly and attentive service without being overbearing. A glass rimmed with lime and lemon wedges and some form of dry ice that resulted in a fog drifting over the table was set down, providing a unique effect. We started with the Wagyu Beef Gyoza (delicious), California roll (standard roll but packed with crab, no skimping here), and Truffle Scallop + Asian Pear roll (amazing). For dinner we had the roasted salmon (mother-in-law said it was quite possible the best salmon she has ever had), prime tenderloin filet, Szechaun NY Strip (incredible flavors including the 5-spiced potato), S&S chicken, Yaki udon noodle + chicken (delicious), and shrimp garlic noodles (great flavors, plenty of shrimp). 6 of 7 diners cleaned their plates, with just 1 needing a carryout box. We were given birthday shots (some kind of a sweet shooter) and the birthday girls received Zuzu's take on strawberry shortcake with ice cream. Sparklers accompanied the desserts (we saw other desserts going out to tables with sparklers, Zuzu must go through a lot of sparklers) which added to the birthday celebration. And then Mo sent over a special dessert, similar to a melting chocolate ball dessert where a liquid was lit and then poured over the large chocolate ball causing it to melt to reveal a cake that was inside the ball. Big props for presentation, it's quite a dramatic dessert. Excellent food, excellent service and a flair for the dramatic. Definitely a great dining experience!

We had a great experience and Jazmine provided excellent service from start to finish. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever being overbearing. You can tell she really cares about the customer experience. We will definitely be back.

The food was fantastic! The shareables and the rolls are the way to go. The place is absolutely beautiful and very welcoming environment. Staff is very attentive and kind. Cell was our waiter and gave great recommendtions. We even spilled a drink and they all instantly came to help and replaced our drink! Highly recommend

ZuZu is phenomenal!!! Perfect for family, friends and business! The manager, Moe, is friendly, caring and attentive. He’ll greet you, read your needs and ensure your expectations are exceeded. I truly believe he’s driving ZuZu’s success in downtown Detroit (so beautiful). Mention of fresh oysters with colorful dry ice flowing across the table, an out of this world gilded sushi tower presenting three courses of perfection (my absolute favorite), a medium rare tomahawk seasoned with love and a sexy bottle of wine, and you begin to see my obsession! This will forever be my favorite experience!!!

Amazing galentine experience! Our waiter Cell was awesome!! He made sure we were well taken care of throughout our dining experience. Teamwork was exceptional between Rasool and Cell. I highly recommend the shrimp tempura sushi and Gyoza for appetizers. Love Zuzu💗

My husband and I dined here for our Wedding Anniversary and this place did not disappoint. We were served by Rosario and he’s awesome! Hands down,5 stars for his service. We were even welcomed with champagne for our anniversary and an Anniversary dessert afterwards. We had their Wagyu Beef Gyoza, Crab/lobster tacos, Zuzu Omakase Sushi Tower, Tres Leches dessert. My favorite was the Zuzu Omakase tower since it was just so good! I also had the Sailor Moon Mai Tai drink, Another plus for the cute mug it came with. Will definitely come back! 🙂

I had a great experience celebrating my birthday at Zuzu! The most outstanding aspect of my experience was our server Darrius! He was professional, attentive, kind, and very personable. When I go back, I’ll definitely be requesting him. The food was delicious, most of my party seemed to agree that the shrimp tempura roll was the best. The pineapple gave a very fresh flavor. The drinks were delicious as well. I’ll definitely be back. The only not so great thing was how dark the restaurant was at a certain time of night. They turned the lights down…all the way down. It was just too dark. But all and all we had a great time!
