Nozomi Doha opens at Marsa Malaz Kempinski


Devina Divecha, October 9th, 2015

Japanese concept Nozomi has opened its doors in Doha, and is located in the gardens of Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl – Doha.

Originally launched in London in 2005 by restauranteur Marios George, Nozomi offers contemporary Japanese cuisine with European influences.

A new menu has been created for Nozomi Doha, which includes signature restaurant dishes such as black cod, tender Kobe beef and lobster tempura.

George, who is now the 'brand ambassador', said: “The launch of Nozomi Doha is a much awaited addition to the increasingly elevating lifestyle experiences available in Qatar. Nozomi offers guests everything they have come to expect of contemporary Japanese cuisine and much more, particularly with our focus on fusing entertainment into the overall dining experience.

"Our exclusive music collections have been curated from sounds from all over the world, mixed with both modern and regional tones – it is something not yet seen in the local hospitality scene. We are proud of Nozomi’s unique concept and we look forward welcoming guests to experience it first-hand."

With a contemporary and chic design, Nozomi Doha has 228 seats downstairs in the restaurant, including the outdoor patio and 143 seats in the upstairs lounge; both floors have outdoor seating with views over the hotel and out to the Arabian Gulf.

Nozomi opened its first franchise in Riyadh, KSA in September 2014.
