Editorial Review for Zula Restaurant – by Andrea Loera
In Short
Clubby, dim lighting, flashy mirrors and far-out banquettes in subtle jewel tones define this upscale casual space in the St. Germain loft condos. Standouts on the New American menu include a generous crab cake appetizer with horseradish aioli. International flavors typify entrees, like the Asian-inspired duck breast, sautéed river trout and smoked pork chop with tamarind onion marmalade. Lunch offers varied sandwiches and entrée-sized salads. Chocolate brownie cake with peanut butter ice cream defines citified comfort food.

There is not a lot more to say about Zula-- the reviews below sum it up perfectly. This is a wonderful restaurant for any foodie visiting Houston. The service is impeccable, the staff is warm and friendly, and the food is beautifully prepared and presented. My husband and I shared the Filet Mignon and the market fish and it was amazing. Each bite was delicious; you could taste the love in each dish. One of the best restaurant I've ever been to. Run to your telephone and make a reservation now. Your stomach and soul will thank you.
Pros: fantastic food, good service
Cons: Wow!

We were there for Mother's Day brunch and were extremely disappointed. They are not usually open on Sundays and this was very clear. They ran out of all desserts but 2 (supposed to have 5). There was throw-up in the lady's restroom. We were supposed to get free mimosas but had to ask for them and then convince the waiter they were included, although it was clearly stated on the website. This is unacceptable for any restaurant - to put your customers in the awkward position of having to explain what the waiter should already know. When we arrived we had to wait even though there were plenty of free tables. We were also promised a round of champagne by the host because we had to wait, which was never served. It was very dark and depressing for a Mother's Day occasion. Expensive for what we got; could have had a Four Seasons meal for the same price and better experience. My chicken dish was not good - huge hormone injected breast with little flavor at all. The other dishes were very good though - excellent filet, fantastic pan fried salmon. This place is probably great for a wild Saturday night, but avoid for any special occasions on Sundays, especially in a city that is known for fantastic Sunday brunch.
Pros: Mostly good food, unique decor, great bar area
Cons: disappointing service, terrible brunch experience
