Zula Restaurant

Update: I am changing my original 2 star review to a 5 star review. I recently started going back to this location after taking a little break. When I went back, I met Jerri! Jerri is simply amazing! They had my favorite drink in stock (Nipsey Blue) which had been out for some time. Jerri really restored my faith in the Shaw location. The few updates they have done to location are looking good. I can now go back to spending all my money at Turning Natural lol. Original Review (2 Star) The Shaw Howard location never has anything. They are always out of Blue Spirulina that goes in the nipsey blue. The juices always look like they've been sitting for a while. The food quality is also a hit or miss. Don't get me wrong, I love supporting this business but they really need to get the Shaw location together. I go to the Shaw location consistently because it is near my job but I sometimes hate going to this location because I sometimes have to settle for another drink that I originally didn't want. The customer service is what keeps me coming back. Each person I have ever interacted with has always been amazing! Management needs to do better with making sure this location is well stocked.

Jessica is the best smoothies maker in the world. Her knowledge of the health benefits of each juice is amazing.

Wow!! We stopped in after an appointment at Children’s National next door and got an awesome smoothie (chill pill) and some of the veggie patties which are SO good, just enough slickness and plenty of veggies. Delicious! Fresh juices plus waffles, veggie burgers, and more. What a great addition to the neighborhood!

This place is a little gem. Who knew there was an unpretentious, high quality juice place in DC? Owned by a former aeronautical engineer (!) whose mother founded the business after being diagnosed with breast cancer, this place hires from the community and serves all natural, fresh pressed juices and fresh smoothies. Plus it's a great way to support a local, black woman-owned business!
