Name: Zuma Grill
Location: Maitama, Abuja
Experience: Located at the award-winning Transcorp Hilton Abuja, many have called Zuma Grill Abuja’s finest fine dining restaurant, and most gush about the ambience. A phrase often used when describing Zuma Grill is “hits the bullseye”. It’s easy to assume the popularity of this phrase stems from the massive bull head made of metal scraps into one of the most significant artworks at Transcorp Hilton Abuja, but the phrase is used literally; at Zuma Grill, everything is “exactly correct”.
Menu: We can talk about the food, made to perfection, the soothing music that makes every bite orgasmic, and oh! the dim lights in a right-sized space decked with brass and copper sculptures. Now, all you’re thinking is the happy ending to the night. Zuma Grill offers an a la carte menu of steaks, premium wines, and meat dishes perfectly grilled to your taste. If your preference is French, Italian, International, Mediterranean, or European cuisine, you’ve found your spot!
Extra advantage: Zuma Grill is more than just a romantic space, it is also kid/family-friendly. My daughter hasn’t joined our dinner dates yet, but I’ve seen families there with their kids and I can tell they loved it. And if you are the type that would love to dine solo, they can set you up at a premium corner that keeps you away from the shenanigans of doting lovers and chatty families.
Parking: Parking is not a big issue for diners as there are several spaces you can safely leave your car while you experience Zuma Grill, but if you can’t wait to get in, leave your car with a valet and just get right to the business of the night.
Verdict: I’m sorry to mention the bull again, but Zuma Grill hits the bullseye with every meal and every drink.
Damage: With about N16 – N42K, you can have one of your best dinners ever.
My recommendation would be the Mushroom Fettuccini. You can also try out the Salmon Fillet, and your wine for the night should be red. You’re welcome!
I don’t need to stress how I feel about Zuma Grill, and it’s all because of how Zuma Grill made me feel. I have recommended the restaurant to everyone I care about, but even those I don’t care about deserve the Zuma experience.
Nice review!
