There’s a new Japanese restaurant on Muscat’s coast. Zuma has launched a seasonal pop-up at W Muscat, opening its doors on 25 October 2026. The restaurant pairs its contemporary Japanese menu with a sea-facing terrace, where guests can settle in for cocktails and stay for dinner.
With space for up to 200 guests, the pop-up features bespoke Zuma furnishings and views across the Gulf of Oman. It follows the brand’s seasonal activations in Ras Al Khaimah and Gstaad, adding Oman’s capital to a line-up that moves between coastal and alpine settings.
Three Kitchens, One Table
The sharing menu covers dishes from the main kitchen, sushi counter and robata grill, following the format used at Zuma’s restaurants worldwide.
Robata dishes include spicy beef tenderloin with sesame, red chilli and sweet soy, and miso-marinated black cod wrapped in hoba leaf.
For a set menu, the Signature Daikoku is listed at OMR50 per person and the Premium Daikoku at OMR70. Both require a minimum of two guests and must be ordered by the whole table. The published menus are samples and may change.
Cocktails and a Sea-Facing Terrace
Cocktails are central to the Muscat pop-up, with the terrace welcoming guests for sunset drinks through to dinner. The separate bar and lounge menu includes edamame, crispy squid and chicken skewers, as well as maki rolls and cold dishes.
The Muscat opening extends Zuma’s Middle East presence, alongside Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh and its Ras Al Khaimah pop-up. Its wider network includes London, Hong Kong and New York, with seasonal addresses such as Ibiza and Gstaad.
Muscat is listed as a winter pop-up. Zuma’s international expansion also includes announced locations in Milan and Athens, alongside a forthcoming Zuma Beach House in Dubai.
Zuma is at W Muscat on Al Kharjiya Street, Shatti Al Qurum. It opens Sunday to Wednesday from 4pm to 1am, Thursday from 4pm to 2am, Friday from 1pm to 2am and Saturday from 1pm to 1am. Reservations are available through Zuma’s website or on +968 2212 0033.
