Experience Zuzu

We celebrated a birthday at Zuzu this past Saturday night with a party of 8, and I can't say enough good things about this downtown Detroit restaurant. Having made our reservation a full month in advance, we knew we were in for something special and Zuzu absolutely delivered. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The valet parking made our evening stress-free, which is always appreciated when dining downtown with a larger group. But what truly made the night memorable was the exceptional service and absolutely incredible food. We decided to order family style to maximize our opportunity to explore the menu, and I'm so glad we did. Honestly, there wasn't a single dish that disappointed. The kitchen clearly takes pride in their craft, and it shows in every bite. What impressed me even more was how accommodating they were for dietary restrictions. One member of our party follows a gluten-free diet, and the staff was knowledgeable and helpful in ensuring there were plenty of delicious options available. No one felt left out or limited in their choices. This is easily a 10 out of 10 experience, and we're already planning our return visit. If you're looking for an outstanding dining experience in downtown Detroit, Zuzu should be at the top of your list. Highly recommended for special occasions, date nights, or any time you want to treat yourself to something truly special. Would I recommend? Absolutely – without hesitation! Will I return? Already making plans for our next visit!

This was our first time at the ZuZu Experience, and it was nothing short of amazing. Evan was a phenomenal waiter, he walked us through the entire menu with care and attention. Not only did he thoroughly explain each option, but he also made sure we had a custom menu to accommodate my gluten allergy and my partner’s shellfish allergy. Thanks to Evan, we enjoyed a fantastic variety of sushi options, followed by delicious entrées: the sweet and sour chicken and the newly featured lamb chops, both of which were outstanding. To top it all off, we were celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday, and Evan made sure it ended on a high note with a surprise strawberry shortcake that absolutely thrilled him. A huge thank you to Evan for going above and beyond to ensure we had a safe, delicious, and truly memorable dining experience!

They do not have a lot of gluten free options but everything I tasted was good
