Reviews
"Fresh blended hummus was on another level. Owner was super chill and gave us a homemade hibiscus drink on the house."
"DELICIOUS FOOD! It was so good we forgot to take pictures. The owner is also a lovely person. Definitely coming back to try other things from the menu. Lamb Shank was our favorite. Best lamb I've tried so far."
"Nice people quick service very friendly. Would be a nice experience of Sudanese food in California. I should say that the food tastes good for the most part but unfortunately nothing tasted fresh. The falafel was stale and old. The lamb was juicy and soft and didn't smell so that was the best part for me."
"Absolutely amazing food! I am Sudanese and have wanted to go here for so long. I finally had the chance and it was somehow even better than I expected. We had the Roasted Lamb Shank, Fuul Mosaleh, and Salatat Aswad. These are all Sudanese dishes that I've grown up with and Z Zoul Cafe knocked it out of the park. Everything was perfect; the vegetables in the Fuul, the consistency of the Salatat Aswad, the tenderness of the lamb shank, the hot sauce (shata) and the green chiles. Calling this restaurant authentic would be an understatement, every bite took me back to Sudan! Sudanese culture is known for its hospitality and any diner at Z Zoul will see this very clearly. Thank you Aref for this great experience."
