Tartare and ceviche at Mr.Zuma: a combination of tradition and signature flavors
At Mr.Zuma Japanese restaurant, we transform classic Raw Bar dishes into true art. Our tartars and ceviches are made from the freshest ingredients, delicately balanced with signature sauces.
The origins of ceviche
Ceviche is a dish that originated in Latin America and is especially popular in Peru. Its main secret is marinating fresh fish in citrus juice, which gently “cooks” the meat without heat treatment. Additional ingredients, such as chili and herbs, add bright accents.

The origin of tartare
The history of tartare dates back to the early 20th century. According to legend, it got its name from the nomadic Tatars, who prepared raw meat, minced and seasoned with spices. The modern version appeared in French cuisine as steak tartare — a dish made from hand-minced beef with capers, onions, and sauces.
