this place is the greatest restaurant ever! I highly recommend every single thing they have on the menu. It is so good and fresh. The chef is a genius! Definitely come by and try it.

Zul is the kind of place that feels like a warm Filipino hug. Tried the sitaw and kalabasa, homey, comforting dish that tasted like it came straight out of a Lola’s kitchen .Paired it with lechon kawali, I love the lechon sisig and tosilog. ITS A MUST TRY!! TIP Upgrade your rice to garlic rice. Trust me, plain rice is nice, but garlic rice is the main . The Palabok was ok but maybe ask for extra sauce it was a little bit dry but overall the flavour was authentic.
Finished strong with the halo-halo—highly recommend adding one to your order. I’d maybe go lighter on the beans next time (unless you’re pro-legume), but overall, it's a colorful, icy party in a cup. Zul. Highly recommend !

My favorite Filipino restaurant in CT. I live 45 mins away and this place is well worth the drive! I love the atmosphere because it gives me a sense of back home.

Every time we drive up to Maine from New York, we make a stop here for some delicious Filipino food. I usually get the Bangus Sisig—it’s hands down the best I’ve ever had. I also love their puto, though lately it hasn’t always been available when I visit. My sister ordered their BBQ chicken and her eyes lit up with her first bite. The sauce that comes with it should be bottled, it’s addicting.

It was fun to try a new cuisine! The food came out very quickly and it was delicious! The appetizer had lots of flavor and complexity, while the main dish was much more simple but still good and part of the experience. I definitely recommend and will be back

Authentic Filipino foods at its best. Serene atmosphere. Nice-smelling and clean restroom. Prompt and friendly service. Highly recommended if you’re craving for delicious Pinoy foods. My favorite? The grilled pork belly and eggplant tofu sisig! Will come back very soon!

⭐☆☆☆☆ Disappointed with the Chicken Inasal
I was really looking forward to trying the chicken inasal at Zul Cafe and Grill, but unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. Instead of the traditional use of chicken thigh or wing, they served it using chicken breast, which made the dish drier and less flavorful than authentic inasal. The marinade didn’t capture the usual citrusy-garlicky notes—it mostly tasted like very salty vinegar, and the chicken itself was overly seasoned to the point of being hard to enjoy. As someone familiar with the classic flavors of this dish, I found this version lacked authenticity. Hope they revisit the recipe to better reflect the original.
Takeout of sisig pork and bangus, fried bangus. Not cheap but well worth the price. All 3 dishes were delicious. Bubble tea was just ok.

Great Philippino food and a nice restaurant that has the feel of visiting a relative at their home.

Food is great however, should be in a better delivery bag for uber eats so food doesn't get tampered with.

We are lucky to have Filipino cuisine in Fairfield County! Agree with many reviewers, it's not a formal, sit-down eatery. But the food is fantastic and filipino food is hard to come by around here. I order trays of Lumpia often to bring to dinner parties, always a hit. Try it all - we must support this gem!
