Description

CLOSED - With giant circus-inspired torchère lamps throwing off flashes of neon from their bases, Zula's whimsical decor takes center stage, but it's the New American cuisine that steals the show.

Surprise appearances include lunch specials such as sloppy joes and lobster club sandwiches. With this menu, Zula sets the stage for a long run downtown.

    Even though the quasi-Southern food threatens to steal the show, Zula's decor really dances with over-the-top whimsy. The deco design is a sleek palette of shimmery chartreuse, plum and gold that serves as a modest backdrop to the 20-foot torchère lamps lining the long dining room. Throwing off flashes of neon from their bases, they demand attention that might otherwise be focused on your dinner companion or your food. When the sun goes down and the geometric lights go up, Zula... More »
