Their Lamb Kadai taste is exceptional. Must try it! I didn’t try much other stuff maybe because I’m a die heart lamb fan. Place is run by a married couple; nice kind people and take care of their customers.

By far, one of my favorite Indian restaurants in the Chicagoland area!. I am very happy to have stumbled upon this place. Home cooked, authentic indian food with delicious spices and flavors. We had the lamb biryani, lamb Kadai, cheese Naan and garlic Naan. The Naan tasted homemade and I am obsessed with the homemade cheese Naan. It’s stuffed with a white creamy cheese that is out of this world delicious. The dishes were prepared and delivered to the table fast and piping hot. The Lamb kadai had a great flavor and tasted homemade. The only thing I disliked was the Lamb biryani. It had an over powering Mint flavor to it. Service was great too, We will be back to try other menu items.

Great food for a very fair price. I only ever order takeout but my short interactions with the employees are always very nice. Before Zaika I almost never ate Indian food, now Zaika is the restaurant I frequent the most.

Friendly & nice. Delicious food, my Tika Masala was perfect and great amount of spicy. I have had others and they are just bland compared to this one. I don’t get the other reviews, it was not watery at all. Actually I have had watered down ones, not this one. So many naan (bread) options and they are so yummy! High recommend and I will be back!

Honestly, we were just craving indian food and this place lookd decent, but we were blown away by the flavors. I have not a single thing to complain about. Food was delicious, every single dish we got was good. Im shocked that I like everything as much as I did!! Most definitely coming back!

The Tika Masala was really watery and barely had any chicken. I’m guessing they don’t wear hair nets because there was a long, thick black hair in one of the orders. The rice and Naan were pretty good. Probably wouldn’t ever come back here. Himalayan Restaurant in Niles is about the same price and way better quality.

I love their Tandoori Chicken! So fresh and right out of the grill!! It’s juicy and the spice level is apt, It tastes yummy as I’m sure the ingredients they use in marinading the chicken are authentic spices! Would love to come back!!

This place definitely deserves more hype! The space itself is nothing to write home about but the food is top tier. I had the chicken dum biriyani and plain naan, and they made it spicy as I requested too! I can’t wait to go back for more and try something new!
