This is a Must go place for Lunch/Dinner. They have Buffet in lunch and not for dinner. 5 Stars for everything. First time visiting and we had a good experience. Lovely Food, Ambience, decorations and good service. Servers were very kind and attentive. Arrived little bit early so it was not really crowded. We ordered Samosa, Palak Panner, Butter Naan and Garlic Naan. As I also wanted to have Non Veg dish as well so I ordered Lucknowi Chicken Biryani. Really the taste of every dish was mouth licking. The spicyness was upto the mark. I never had Palak Panner made like this. Chicken Biryani was cooked really very well. The dishes were served in a very artistic way as Biryani was served in a very beautiful Pot. Definitely recommend this place.

Ordered through Uber eats. To start with, the whole order was messed up, placed order for Malai kofta curry ended up getting chicken and potato curry. The rumali roti was torn apart, and paneer biryani wasn’t freshly made. I wouldn’t be ordering from this restaurant anymore. Truly not worthy place to try.

Where do I start… I’ve been in my professional career 17 years now and I’ve never I mean never come across AUTHENTIC INDIAN CUISINE like Zayka. Great atmosphere, beyond amazing customer service, but the dishes that’s always made with love can’t be beat!! I have no problem spending 100+ every visit without any complaints. The Chief is untouchable!! Try it for yourself and tell them CED sent you !!

Really great chicken Tikka Masala. I asked for medium spice. I easily could have handled a little spicier, but flavor was right on. Rice is very fragrant. Good Naan. I always enjoy a Mango Lassi.

Truly one of the best authentic Punjabi restaurants in the RTP area. Great flavors, portion sizes, and a wide array of menu options. We ordered dum aloo, kadhai paneer, and different varieties of bread that they offer. Finger licking food.

Very lovely ambiance, love the wooden art pieces and luxurious looking chandelier. The platters for service are interesting and artistic. Remember this is first Indian place in USA for years, where they didn’t give the complimentary rice. Amounts are just right and prices competitive. They don’t have many servers, pandemics crunch I guess. Hidden in a busy market place, place is highly recommended for a quick yet wholesome meal. Food was slightly on dry side and music good. Two of the three glasses we used, the bottom of stem were cracked, broken which is very unattractive and a hazard too.Must visit once.

I recently dined at Zayka Indian Cuisine and was blown away by the exceptional food and service. The authentic Indian cuisine was bursting with flavors, prepared to perfection by talented chefs. The staff members were attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. The cozy ambiance and cleanliness of the restaurant were noteworthy. I highly recommend Zayka Indian Cuisine for an outstanding Indian dining experience that perfectly blends flavorful cuisine, attentive service, and a warm ambiance.
