We are excited to invite you to Zula!
We offer a wonderful place to gather with family and friends and share good times over Mediterranean flavors, curated from the many places that surround the Mediterranean Sea. Drawing from the eclectic food scene of Tel Aviv, Zula's menu reflects a unique mix of traditional dishes and other creative inspirations by our Chef Marty Pfeifer. Whether you join us solo or with a larger group, family style, our space will entice you to hang out and be a part of our inviting community and familial scene. Our bar program is designed by local celeb, David Sigal, and weaves these same flavors into an array of cleverly developed specialty cocktails. We offer a full bar, outdoor seating and yes, our pita is house-made :)

Absolve love the food and service. But the portions have become too small. The cost for the smallest skewer of salmon was not even an appetizer portion.

Went to Zula for the 1st time a few weeks ago & couldn't wait to go back - delicious!!! Tried a few new things (fried cauliflower) & some favorite dishes from last time (watermelon salad). Our server, Angie was very attentive & sweet!

Was a random pick from Open Table because it was close to the Japanese Garden. But it was fantastic discovery. In a quaint part of town called Nob-hill. We enjoyed everything from the signature cocktails to starters (fried cauliflower), to skewers and a shared main course. You can't go wrong and you won't be disappointed. Will definitely return when back in Portland

We had another fabulous meal this past weekend. Sampled some of the new options on the menu along with some of the standard fare. Vary creative pairings of items and spices in each dish.

All good just seemed a little over priced and the staff claimed that they only had crushed ice so couldn't change the ice in a cocktail order - really?????? We could hear the barman shaking cocktails with ice!

Chef Will is a mad scientist of flavor. This was our first time at Zula, but it will not be our last. Every bite of every dish was loaded with delectable flavors and we left extremely satisfied.
