Wow. I’m a bit picky about Indian food and first experience was fantastic. Naan cooked perfectly and the Tofu Palak was incredibly tasty!

One of the best Indian restaurants around Littleton to eat. It’s a little pricey but the customer service is great and it’s clean. The Tikka Masala/Naan here is amazing here and definitely worth it to at least try it out if you enjoy Indian food. Customer service is great as we usually go when it’s not extremely busy but overall the food is delicious.

OMGOSH, we came here out of convenience and didn’t know what to expect. We were blown away with the savory ingredients and excellent customer service. The food was so good that we dive right in and I forgot to take pics of our dishes. We’re definitely coming back soon.

We didnt expect much of this place since we have known alot of our indian friends around the area and nobody has really spoken about this place before. We were actually pleasantly surprised by the food, taste and quality here. Momos were great (but they had green chutney instead of North indian spicy red Chutney), but paneer tikka was awesome and so were the naan. They were well cooked, unlike the most restaurants that give raw rubbery naans. Food was upto the mark and actually tasted alot closer to Authentic north indian food and much better than more famous Indian restaurants in the area.

We ordered the food and it was tasty but not hot. We were surprised that it came out so quickly after ordering. A couple of hours after we ate, we both got very sick with stomach issues (won’t describe it…). It appears that the food wasn’t heated or cooked thoroughly. Please be aware when ordering and make sure food is brought out warm. Needless to say we will not be returning!

Went on Valentines Day and the place was packed. The server greeted us and told that we will be seated as soon as the table is cleaned (the table was empty and just needed cleaning). It took them a lot of time to get us seated (cos the same person was refilling waters on all the tables before coming and cleaning the empty tables). Finally were seated and then waited for another 10 mins before the same person came to take the order( given staff shortage everywhere , we can understand but they had the same folks before COVID also). Ordered the appetizers and main course at the same time ( they have 3 veg options in appetizers – gobhi , samosa and momos- ordered all and veg karahai, butter naan, garlic naan and veg biryani). The server suggested the spice level and went with level 4 as the server said that’s the spice level for Indian Spicy. Got the food quickly and didn’t had to wait much. Appetizers were all great ( 5 stars to appetizers with momos being the best) but when it comes to main course, looks like when asking for spice level 4 , all the chef did was add salt and pepper in the gravy and biryani and not exactly make it spicy. Adding salt and pepper does not make food spicy but it makes it salty and hot. Clearly the chef knows about Nepali food but not familiar with Indian spices.

The owner has an attitude. She picks up your plates before you can even finish your meal. They do not allow you to enjoy your meal in privacy.

1st time buyer at this restaurant. Ordered online & had it delivered, so I don’t know about the atmosphere there. Only ordered lamb vindaloo, garlic/cheese naan, & momo’s. I asked for the vindaloo to be hot, and it was. Thankfully not the fake red pepper type that changes the taste, but some type of oil. The naan had real cheese & fresh cut herbs. And you could tell the momo’s were fresh as well. I believe the veggie ones contain cabbage, green onion, carrot.. and a couple others. Super tasty though. All of if. Two thumbs up to Zaika 😉
