Try File > Import from the main menu.

If that fails to find a project, then the ZIP file does not contain
Eclipse project files. In that case:

Step #1: File > New > Project from the main menu

Step #2: Choose Android Project from the roster of project types

Step #3: Choose "Create project from existing source" in the radio buttons

Step #4: Use the Browse button to find the root directory of the project

and continue from there as if it were a regular new project.
