Such a lovely little restaurant. It is very unassuming, but clean and comfortable. The food is absolutely delicious and we would not only come again, but would recommend to our friends. We ordered the pakora trio to start and chicken vindaloo with coconut rice, and garlic naan. I could fill up on the smell alone, which was divine, but the food was beyond delicious. Staff was attentive and friendly, asking what spice level we desired and checking that it was what we wanted after tasting everything. Great little treasure. So happy to have found it and happy we gave it a try.

I'm a big fan of curry and I am honestly gonna say Zaika has become my new favorite place to get Indian food. The quantity itself makes this spot the best place to get my curry craving 😋 💕I had the fish Koliwada,lamb Korma,goat Chettinad,coconut rice, garlic Naan and for dessert the Gulab jamun 💕💘 I'm gonna be back very soon 💘💯 (the veggie Pakora was a very kind on the house treat 🙏 thank you Zaika team 😊)

I have eaten here many times both takeout and dine in over the years. The space is small but has a brisk takeout with several skip drivers coming through. Quality and consistency are key here. I’ve had both mild and medium spicy dishes. They get it right and have never given me a wrong order. We have basic items we love here- butter chicken, fish koliwada, palak paneer and garlic naan or paratha. I’ve had their kadhai chicken, korma, curry, lentils/daal, and it’s sooo delicious! The texture of the sauces are always perfect, not watery or goopy. We LOVE it here and the service is great too! I’d recommend this for anyone if you’re in the NW near Tuscany train station.

The food was absolutely delicious! Every bite was full of amazing flavour, and you can really tell how much care and effort went into making it. The taste was perfect, and I honestly couldn’t stop eating it. It was so good that I would happily have it again anytime.

Fish koliwada was the best Indian fish we have had in the city and the serving was very generous. The coating was extremely light, thin and crunchy and pungent with Indian spices while the fish was moist and steaming hot. The other standout was the naan, but that is the litmus test for any Indian restaurant. They prepared our chicken kabob so that it was moist, not dry like at so many restaurants. Fish pakora was dense and crunchy without being overcooked. It struck us as being very authentic. The service was very friendly and I appreciated that they paid attention to the music they played. Prices are excellent. We will become regulars.
