About

Aref and Dalia Elgaali and their four children came to America in 2016. Upon discovering that San Francisco had no authentic Sudanese restaurants, they decided to bring the great taste of their homeland to the Bay Area. Their collaboration is a labor of love with Aref re-creating family recipes passed down over generations for the soups, salads, and entrees while Dalia specializes in taste-tempting desserts such as Baklava, Basbosa and her delicious Dalia Rice Pudding. Zoul means “friend” in the Sudan. The Elgaali’s welcome you to Z Zoul Café where their cuisine is perfect for those times when friends and family gather together.

Here, the energetic chic of a European terrace meets the laid-back vibes of “California cool.” Now serving an all-day menu and new daytime cocktails featuring vibrant flavors, original combinations, and unique bitters and syrups.
