Zaika Indian Cuisine Reviews

great indian food. friendly service. i can't wait to try all their dishes i think slightly better than bombay darbar

This restaurant was excellent, and easy to give it a 5 star rating. Both the food and service were excellent. We ordered two types of the naan bread the butter and the garlic. Also the chicken tikka masala ( which I ordered, and was incredible ) The song chicken,the oak paneer,the lamb Roganjish,and the Zaika Malabari chicken With side orders of both the Zaita and the mango chutney. Everything was INCREDIBLE. Highly recommend

We have been to this place before. They have a selection of both veg & non-veg, north & south Indian cuisine. The spice is adjusted to your taste per your request. The food was good and enjoyable. The place has good ambience. It is clean, comfortable and cozy. Family friendly atmosphere. Would definitely visit again. The staff is very helpful in helping you choose your dishes and making suggestions per your taste when requested.

My friend and I just finished lunch at Zaika and decided it is Miami's best Indian food. Simple restaurant in a strip mall but heck it’s the excellent food and service that counts. I'm from Vancouver and grew up with good Asian food so am usually disappointed with it in Miami. But our lunch today was Vancouver worthy. I had a snapper curry; my friend had lamb. Thank you!

We have been going here since they opened about a year ago, we have gotten to know the staff who are all GREAT. Chef is full of personality and talent and leads his kitchen to put out absolutely delicious food every time. This place is as good as Dishoom in London. I could reccommend dishes but every single one we have had is truly fantastic. We do not eat meat so can't rate the lamb dishes. Try this place if you haven't, you will be hooked if you like authentic, great consistent Northern and Southern Indian food!

Today I had the best Indian lunch I ever. First course I had the Veggie Samosas, they were amazing and a very good healthy choice. My main course, Chicken Tikka Masala It was truly an explosion of flavors and the Indian Chapati bread the perfect balance for my taste buds. So yum 😋! The restaurant is very nice, clean and cozy. It’s definitely a Family oriented venue. I could feel a friendly atmosphere the moment I stepped in starting with the Hostess she was very polite, my server was very attentive at all times and made the perfect suggestion. Honestly it was a great lunch experience today at Zaikas. Even the Executive Chef/Owner came to my table to make sure everything was perfect. Thank you Avanish. l enjoyed this food so much I took another meal for dinner. If you are ever in miami this restaurant is a must 👌

I come here at least twice a month with coworkers. is the best. recent took my picky eater dad and he loved it.

Worst experience we had at this place. They gave us food in disorganized manner. Staff wasn't motivated towards serving food. It was a frozen chanti and samosa that were served to us after heating them in microwave. Very sad that I was good reviews and went there and felt bad. I'd never ever go there again.

incredible food. i keep going back to try more dishes and none have dissapointed. Tandoori chicken is fabulous. the Kerala/Malay dishes are very good too. Tasty channa curry. ask for extra spicy otherwise the dishes can be a little sweet.

I came here with my family and was impressed by service and food quality. The staff was attentive, accommodating and the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. The food was top notch, especially if you are a vegetarian. I recommend you order the dishes listed in the “Recommended dishes”, especially the mushroom tandoor. However, I was disappointed in the restaurants environmental approach in terms of my time tonight. They used plastic over paper/recycled bags, plastic containers rather than the recyclable styrofoam (for to go), and used straws. I think being sustainable is important, especially in today’s day and age. I would rather pay more. Plus if this restaurant switched, they would make a big impact. Overall, great service and food, but poor environmental footprint.

I had heard how authentic the food at Zaika was but not how reasonable the prices were in comparison to other Indian restaurants in South Florida. The lunch specials are great value for South Florida. Definitely worth visiting if you need a fix of Indian food.

We live in the neighborhood and were looking to try a new restaurant but my husband is vegetarian so choices are difficult to come by. Researching on internet we found this place and made it today... it is excellent the food was very good and the service too they are on top of everything and prices are affordable. Everything found in one place.

have had the naams,chicken wings,lamb biryani,fish malai curry,and lamb korma - food good, quantity of lamb insufficient

Absolutely great food. Very good service. Great place to eat on a holiday. Visited twice in a week and love to go visit again

We went to our favorite Indian restaurant Zaika tonight . Shrimp and lamb dishes and white chicken for the kids. So gooooood !!! For parents, 2 Malbec extra . Tonight we had 2 little puppies with us and the team were very cool. Thank you :) Cheers ! Chris and Jen

Everything I have had here has been Good & some things very Good. However I think some times as a place gets more popular and some times bigger there is a risk that quality may decline. One of my favorite appetizers was the chicken wings. They are still tasty, but they went from half drumettes and half flaps, to maybe 2 drumettes and the rest are flaps. It would be more honest to increase the price a little bit and deliver the same value, than to try to sell less for the same price!

Our friends highly recommended this restaurant and they were all 100% right! The ambiance is very warm and inviting. The serving staff were wonderful. The wine was great, which we did not expect. It was very apparent that the food was prepared fresh and everything came out hot. Spices were perfect. This is what Indian food should taste like! The simple accompanying rice was delicious too. So happy we went on our last evening in Miami.

Delightful atmosphere and dinning experience, very clean, knowledgeable waiters, excellent service. A little pricey with everything ala carte. Since I cannot eat spicey foods, they were very accommodating.

bad quality , we dont recommand , were all feeling bad. Chicken very poor quality ;;Spinach smell bad .. Dont know how this place can be recommend as a good indian restaurant . Sad!!

I've eaten at this restaurant at least 6 times now, and they haven't missed on anything. The curries are excellent. I Love the soups, with some Nan. I have ordered the chicken wing appetizer a few times. They are done in the oven and delicious! The staff is also very efficient.

Really good Indian food. Njoyed samasoa’s,chilli chicken as APPS. WE then shared tikka masala chicken,lamb vindaloo( a wee bit too tomato based on sauce but good),lamb biryani,paneer palal,nan. All in all a very good job. Service very attentive. Tons to bring home for kidlee’s.

We found this small Indian restaurant by surprise, it is not a super fancy place but the food was actually pretty good. The naan bread was fantastic. We also liked the tandoori chicken and the samosa. We will definitely return!

If you would like to eat Indian food in North Miami... this is the place. Very good reception, very good service, all the dishes we ordered were delicious and tasty. The restaurant was clean (table, restroom, employees). I would recommend and return with pleasure. It is not expensive.

We're from Chicago and we thought nothing would compare. We were blown away with the flavor. We ordered some samosas which are average but the sauce was very tasty. Then we had some butter chicken which they made spicy which was never an option in Chicago, we ordered the tandoori chicken was average yet spicy, the chicken biryani was not your ordinary biryani, it was flavorful, aromatic and had some unusual ingredients like cashews and raisins. Overall we had a great time. The waiter told us the wait was long due to a busy night, and it was only Tuesday, he was nice enough to get us seated and gave us menus and told us to preorder. By the time we got a table food was ready. I highly recommend this place.

On a recent trip we went for lunch. The food and service were amazing. This place does not have buffet for lunch but they have lunch options which worked perfectly for all of us.

We were actually spoiled living in the midwest for many years where great Indian food was plentiful and very reasonably priced. That may be a surprise to folks who live on the coasts, but if you're ever in Cincinnati do try out any of the Indian restaurants and you'll be pleasantly surprised. I think the Universities there create a demand. Living in Miami for the last 20 years, I've consistently found Indian restaurants over-priced, low quality and dumbed down. There is one great Indian restaurant we found in South Miami, but it's about an hour from where we live now, so we simply don't go there. It's very pricey - I don't even recall its name. Zaika is the best Indian food we've found here over-all. They are consistently high quality and the place is clean (another problem we've found with Indian restaurants in South Florida). The service is good, although the sseemingly-stern host could use a few lessons in how to greet customers. Their lunch is actually quite a good deal. It's priced fairly and portions are lunch appropriate. After lunch however, the portions are of a similar size and everything goes ala carte, so it becomes a bit pricey. That said, if you want good Indian it's worth paying a bit extra to have a pleasant clean environment. It's above average for South Florida. In most any other city this would be a 3 star (or less) Indian restaurant in my opinion. I guess we just don't have a sufficient Indian population here to draw great, authentic and reasonably priced Indian restaurants. It's such a rich cuisine - what a pity it doesn't play a bigger role here.

was so excited about having an indian restaurant near my home. the first 3 times we went each of us ordered something different. Everything was delicious and the service was attentive. The 4th time, the food was indifferent, as was the service. Finally, the 5th time was a disaster; every dish badly cooked (with questionable ingredients). The service became rushed; orders were routinely misplaced. We got another table's bread (which we ate!) I cannot force my better half to go again. Too bad...

This INDIAN restaurant is truly a gem. The food is delicious and great service. We did tried several dishes like: Samosas, Garlic naans, lamb, saag chicken, Murphy’s tikka and others. All perfectly cooked. It is worth the drive.

What a great lunch special this restaurant has. Indian food is very hard to get right in South Florida, but this place executes well! Especially with the lunch specials available, for both dine in and take out, which is a blessing for us living in North Miami Beach. We have had delivery service from this restaurant for dinner as well and everything is always complete and full of flavor. Mutter paneer, dal mahkni, chicken tikka masala, butter chicken have all been so delicious. This place is a winner. Yum yum yum! :)

Great food, great service, friendly staff, excellent prices. The somosas are out of this wold. Best tasting Indian food in south Florida. we will go there again soon!!

Went there with my family for a weekend dinner. This place is popular among all americans living nearby who like Indian food. The place was crowded but the wait was not long. The place is small but clean. Ordered rotis and curries for dinner. The food appeared freshly made but the taste was more for an american palate than an indian one. I will give it a skip next time until somebody treats me here. Americans will definitely enjoy the good indian food here.

First time to trying this Indian Resturant and I liked it. Service was great and very fast. The food was good! And if I am in the area I will return. We drove 3.5 hours from Key West just to try this restaurant and as I said it was good and if I am in the area I will stop again. Next time the want Indian and we drive to Miami, we will visit our other go to default best Indian food restaurant in Coconut Grove, only 3 hours and 15 minutes from us. We generally drive there once a month for our Indian Food fix.

As I indicated I my first review I live close by and was looking for a good Indian restaurant. Some Indian colleague of my husband recommend it us to try, now we come every weekend either Saturday or Sunday for lunch. Excellent food, excellent service, affordable prices. They have wired schduel from.11:30 am to 2 pm and then they open at 5:30 pm. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Excellent choice of dishes, all smells lovely when you walk in! We had prawns as starter and really enjoyed that. Served on a hot plate and mild enough for kids. We ordered butter chicken mild for the kids and spicy chicken for us. Beautiful hot naan too! Overall no faults here!

Love Zaika, the food is very consistent and authentically delicious. Owner Norris is on site, working with his team to make you happy!

We went once and we are back another and now for Valentine's Day we are coming back. The place is simple but clean and nice, The food really good and the portions are super right. Service and prices good. I am spicy food lover but I recommend if you like spicy request mild and if you do not like, just make clear that you do not like spicy. Anyways the waitress always ask. Do not miss this place. Your are going to love it.

By far the Best Indian food I ever had, the chicken tikka masala was extraordinary, the place was packed even on a week day, the service was great, prices reasonable, everything we order was perfect, you have to try it

I had given up on Indian cuisine in Miami/Miami Beach. I had tried 3 other disappointing Indian Restaurants. I met an Indian person who recommended Zaika. I was pleasantly surprised by the authentic flavors. I've been twice for dinner. I've only had vegetarian dishes and I make a reservation.

I've been looking for a good Indian restaurant in Miami for a long time. I recently discovered Zaika Indian Cuisine, fortunately located about 10 minutes from where I live. I have eaten there several times and the food is delicious and abundant. The staff are courteous and professional. The prices are mid range and calculate to good value.

Recently we visited the restaurant. First impression is not very welcoming but once you are settled people at restaurant are very nice. The gentleman who took our order was very helpful. He made couple of very helpful suggestions. Do not order their "spicy" cause they add spices on top and then don't cook it properly so you can smell the "uncooked" spices smell, stay with mild. The only complaint I have is that they charge me 18% and when the bill came they expect me to add tip as well. I recommend going here with family.

I discovered this restaurant the first week it opened. Not even a real sign, just a paper banner. My husband and I love to go out to dinner and we were looking for an Indian restaurant. So glad To have found Zaika! Their food is so awesome. I usually like to have the same thing but my husband tries something different every time we go. EVERYTHING is great! This restaurant is family owned and operated. They really take pride. I highly recommend this place. We go there once a week since I discovered it. Make a reservation if you go as the word got around and it's very busy!

We arrived at the restaurant at 4:00 and were the only customers. We called earlier to make sure that they're open during the in-between lunch and dinner hours. We ordered palak paneer, a lentil dish and channa masala and some regular nans. The palak paneer was our most favorite, and even the channa masala (not something that I regularly order) was fantastic. Extra spicing of cardamom in the channa masala gave it quite a distinctive taste. The nans were the best that I have tasted. Crispy on the outside and tender in the inside. In addition to the fantastic tasting food, the owner was very welcoming and made the meal extra special.

Went in for lunch and had the paneer pakoras [3.5/5] and wings [4/5]which were interesting . For main course had channa masala [2.5/5], chicken tikka masala [3.5/5] and took out kadhai paneer [4/5]. Food was ok, ambiance could be a lot better. Overall ok restaurant. Probably could give a 3.5, might try again if in the area.

I always loved Indian food. I had the opportunity to visit India a few years back and I realized how much better it was there. Once back home I was underwhelmed by the food I used to love, until Zaika opened up a couple of miles from home. As soon as I tried it I felt like I was back in Mumbai, the Indian spicy was really Indian spicy, their variety of dishes was outstanding, their vegetarian dishes such as malai kofta or panner tikka masala are superb. My kids love the butter chicken and chicken biriyani. Authentic food and great service.

My husband and I started coming for dinner when they opened, it is clean, nice, fantatic staff and even better food.

Best Indian Food in Miami. Authentic food. I was craving an authentic, original and delicious place like this absolutely delicious. Service was on point. Friendly and knowledgeable . Better than service its the food. Naan bread just addictive. Delighted to have this genuine place in Miami.

What a huge mistake... I came alone tonight after an attempt yesterday .... For being alone they could just sit me in an uncomfortable bar stool or outside!!! NOT GOOD at all!!! What is this??? They need a higher ticket for a "table"??? I would have ordered food for more than myself!! Oh well, just make sure you go to this place at least with a another person.... As for food, could not try anything!!! So my review is mainly based in serrvice and wanting to please their guests... They should improve on that!

We went there for dinner the day before Valentine's day. The place was packed, even with a reservation we had to wait 10 mins. However they made sure we were comfortable while we waited. Once seated, our waitress Abby took great care of us. I was a little disappointed we could try one of their signature drinks, which are only served from 5:30-6:30 because they do not have a liquor license yet. The food was good, the herb marinated Lamp Chop were my favorite followed by the chicken Murgh Tikka.

I went with my husband to celebrate his birthday 🎉 and we had an incredible meal. Chicken korma is very delicious and creamy, they do a great job and I will say so far the best naan we have ever had we even had to repeat it . Our server Anil was very polite and presented a great service and the whole team sang happy birthday to my husband, that was very sweet. We will definitely come back.

What can I say??? I have tried a number of Indian Restaurants in the South Florida areas. Some have been "just ok" while many others were down right awful! That is NOT the case with Zaika. I started coming here a few years ago and I can honestly say that it is the BEST in the area. The atmosphere is great and every server I have experienced has gone above and beyond to take care of me or my party. Some Highlights or Must Trys: Malai Kabab Chicken Tikka Tandoori Shrimp Palak Paneer - FAV ANY Biryani And let's not forget the Naan. Garlic and Bullet (chili pepper). And after every meal, you "feel" good that you ate such a delicious and healthy meal. I will keep coming back for more!

Loved this Great small family run restaurant in north miami. Food is always fresh and savory. Very well prepared and seasoned. Selection of all of classical favorites at reasonable prices. Service is attentive. Wish they had a better wine list. Location is nice and clean, A MUST if you love Indian cuisine or want to try

From start to finish, excellent meal. The service was friendly and prompt, the atmosphere bustling with Indian music playing. All of the food was perfectly prepared and delicious. The rasmalai was great, and they even made true Indian chai for my mom. We are looking forward to going back. I FINALLY have a place to recommend for Indian food in Miami!

If you are looking for authentic and delicious Indian food this is the place to go. We used to drive to Coconut Grove for Indian food. Not more traffic and driving and parking scouting. This place has it all and is centrally located in North Miami

If you are looking for top quality Indian food then your quest would end here. This place serves fresh and very delicious food at very affordable prices. Hospitality was wonderful and we couldn't stop eating. Strongly recommend for Indian food lovers.

I order the goat curry with comes with naan (Bread). The food was delicious only wish there morw qas served. Will definitely come back to order something else.

Tasty good food. I won’t say they had a delicious dish, but overall it is good. Good attentive service, ambience was calm and decent.

My family went to Zaika Indian Cuisine for lunch. The food was DELICIOUS, and the staff was very nice. We definitely enjoyed our lunch and look forward to coming again.

So friends of ours invited us to go have Indian food for the first time, I have to say I was impressed. We went on a Sunday night the place was packed. We still had great service and the good was amazing. Will definitely go back for more!

I give this restaurant a 4 stars for its décor, cleanliness, efficient waiters, good service and for good food. We had (4 people) veg Samosas with tamarind sauce as a starter followed by chicken tikka masala (a mistake because its not for Indian taste buds), chicken vindaloo (tasty), yellow dal ( taste of homemade) as main dishes, served with tandoori nan and rice. Side items we ordered were salad, pickles raita and pappadom, since Indian food seems incomplete without them. Try their kheer for dessert (nice) and finish off with masala chai as digestif. Approx $100 for 4 does not come cheap!

Zaika is a small restaurant in a small strip mall on 123rd St.. in Miami Beach. The tables are nicely spaced but they have used every inch available. I like to sit near the bar and the window. I have only ordered the one dish because I love it so much. The delicious lamb korma. It is served with the fluffy basmati rice and the springy and wonderful garlic naan. service is good, prices are good and the food I've had is memorable. Never made it to dessert and always take home some food.

We moved into the area about 16 months ago and have been to Zaika numerous times. The food is always excellent, the staff friendly and helpful. Place is always busy, too, but the wait is never long (if any). Really enjoy their lamb and shrimp dishes, my favorites so far are the saag (spinach) and vindaloo dishes. My husband says their chicken tikka is one of the best he's ever had. We're working our way down the menu items to keep trying new things, they all are delicous. Garlic naan is light, fluffly with the perfect amount of garlic. Their lunch specials are fabulous bargain, too.

I have been eating here since they opened and can't get enough of this amazing restaurant. They are unpretentious humble but cook the best Indian fare.

Great food, nice portions, the Naan is freshly done as well as all the food. Yellow lentils a must. best flavors of India in North Miami

We stayed at Miami Beach hotel and looked into TripAdvisor of this particular Indian restaurant and was excellent . I have to say it is very good Indian authentic cuisine with excellent customer service . We had dinner take out and also lunch as well. I would prefer this restaurant when I am here again .

A great Indian restaurant, food is very good, excellent service, clean and we wait in line too many peoples. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time here with friends. The service was excellent. The food was okay, not as tasty as I expect of Indian cuisine. We really like good Indian food and have heard there are better to try on our next visit to Miami.

I always go to Zaika but yesterday was my last day there FOR SURE! And Im not really into Yelp reviews but after that they really deserve pay attention on customer service and what kind of food they are serving as well!! * We ordered appettizers and our main dish , as always , and as soon as we ordered the server communicate us that the kitchen Was closing (even tho it was 9:15 pm and the restaurant closes at 10 pm) - I work in the hospitality business and I understand that sometimes ppl are tired and want to go home , but come on , you’ll gave to say that 45 mins earlier ? - Anyways , We got the Appetizer and guess what? It Was a black HAIR ON OUR FOOD , which neither me or my husband has dark hair... so we returned the bread and Asked for another one. This time bread was cold so I’m 100% sure they just removed the piece of the hair from the bread and served the same plate again. We didn’t eat because it was cold but we never complain about that because who knows what do they do at this kitchen?? Main dish was served and we were ready for desert, my husband ordered a mango sorbet, after like 5 mins server comeback letting us know that they didn’t have that ... Ok so bring us the check please ... ?! so server comeback saying that “ He found the desert on the fridge now!” . Ok so we got the desert . And seriously, guess what ? Believe me Or not it was a piece of hair inside the mango sorbet AGAIN!!!! It was by far the worst experience ever , plus I saw the server hiding from our table , he never apologized, and after we paid for our meal (yes we had to pay for everything - with no Discount or anything!!) , I saw servers laughing when we left . It was very frustrating and disrespectful. I’m never gonna comeback anymore, And If you go to Zaika make sure that there’s no hair on your food before you eat!!!

We have been here multiple time. The food is always great as is the service. They pay attention to the spice level you want, so you can enjoy your food. It can get quite busy but there is plenty of seating

The only reason I gave a 4 star is because I loved the food. But I was shocked to find a fly in my water and there was curry spilled on the table cloth. When I informed about the water, the waiter's response was too callous. They add a 18% gratuity for everyone. That said, we relished the food. We had ordered lamb rogan josh and it was well cooked and was quite flavorful unlike many other restaurants. The onion kulcha and matar paneer were delicious too.

Love this place. Lunch Menu is perfect and a great value! Busy a dinner on any night. Easy take out ordering.

We went there twice in 4 days and it is the best indian food we had in USA and a treat to eat. We ordered veg and it was very good and seems exactly the authentic Indian taste. Keep up the taste.

Love the food! Great flavor profile. We tried lamb, chicken and seafood - delightful. Will definitely go back when in town.

I really like food in this restaurent it was good portion not too big or too small,you can tell when you see the here they're make it very nice and used quality ingredient just want too tell the owner to keep it up. !!! If you are keeping this quality Your name going anywhere I will keep trying and talk more about your food..!!

I did come several months ago and they did not treat me right... So, I left... This time they were almost going to give me "again" maybe the worst table in the place, so I asked to be seated in a better table which after some looks was given to us! Service was average all over.. The place is quite clean and decor is nothing special. Food: The Nan is not so good... I've had much better here in Miami.. They even brought the plain one with a ton of butter / oil on top... So, ordered more without and it was still below average. We ordered 2 types of lamb... Both with sauce, one curry and the other Vindaloo... Again, these were average... Nothing special... Basmati rice was quite good... So maybe the best we had all night!! All in all, thought it was going to be better, much better after reading the other reviews!!! For me, been there done that!!

We have been coming here from almost when the restaurant opened...never been disappointed. The place seems to be getting busier too...good to see quality and hard work being rewarded.

Restaurant Ambiance was good and the food quality is good. We have traveled long way due to the ratings we saw on line. Enjoyed the food, but the behavior of the staff who served our table ruined the experience. They are taking management for a ride with incorrect charges on billing. It is my fault, that i did not verify the bill because of typical confidence level at the restaurant. My son asked for a Mango lassi and the waiter told they have only Sweet Lassi, since he did not want that, we settled for Coke, and we were served a Coke for $1.99, but in the bill it was charged for a Lassi @$3.99 which I was not expecting. they serve the food in disorganized manner and took 40 mins of time for no reason for a small order.Though all 7 of us sat on same table order for 2 different menus and told the waiter upfront that the bills should be separate. They charged us for group of 7 with a mandatory gratuity of 18% and when we asked to make the change, the staff had thrown the bill on our table and called up their management. Finally they removed the charge, but all this was not necessary in the first place because we have announced that we need to be billed separately. I did not want to write this long, but I had to as we were really upset with the behavior of the person who took the order from our table, which needs to be brought to the attention of the management, this behavior may impact the ratings in the long run! Once again thank you for the great food, but not happy with the hospitality!!

We were in north miami on our way home. Decided to stop for lunch. Pretty much anything would work. Checked on line for restaurants around us. Saw an indian restaurant. My wife and I enjoy indian food. Found the restaurant in a strip mall. it looked fine white table cloths etc. service was very attentive and quick but not too quick. We both ordered the lunch special of Mango curried chicken. My wife does not do spicy very well and ordered mild, I ordered medium. It is the best curry we have ever had. I thought my wife was going to lick the sauce out of the dish. Not too cheap but worth every penny and then some. If you are in the area and are looking for Indian food this is the place.

The butter chicken was quite good but the Korma sauce was bland. My vegetable Bryani was horrendous! I ordered it "Medium" hot and it so bland that my 4 year old daughter could eat it as it had NO HEAT. Also, and this pisses me off more than anything, this is the first Indian Restaurant (and I have been to well over 30+ through out my travels) that I can recall uses FROZEN VEGETABLES in the dishes. I will refuse to go here again just for this reason. The server also was bad, as I asked for kid sized dishes for my 4 year old and 9 year old and he shook his head "yes", only to get the bill and find out they billed me $17.95 for my son's dish and $15.95 for my daughter's. Unacceptable - as if they did not have child size, they should have told me no WHEN I asked. Overall, I will not go back just for the usage of frozen vegetables but I did admit their Butter Chicken was quite good. Wish the rest of their dishes lived up to that.

Food was great. I went with my family, we tried our favorites (chicken tandoori, lamb biryani and vegetable korma) everyting was perfect. Staff is friendly ambience comfortable.

All the dishes we ordered were great. The chicken biryani was well done and flavorful. The Kerala Chicken Curry was spicy as we had asked for and was great with both the butter naan as well as the rice. Would recommend the joint to anyone looking for good indian food in miami

The best Indian food I've had in Miami and the service is great. Waiters remember you and what you like to eat. The naan is delicious. Make sure you make a reservation or you won't eat for a while!

There are not a lot of Indian restaurants to choose from around here but this is probably one of the better ones. The food is good, the atmosphere and ambience are above average for Indian cuisine but the service is sadly lacking. There is not a lot of guidance for those that don’t know what curry is what so if you’re a novice I suggest you read up before arrival!! Choose how hot you want your curry and allow for the fact that medium isn’t hot at all! So if you like supper spicy hot food then go for the hottest they can make. But if you’re worried about it being too spicy you can easily order a medium. The Indian beer is great!

I was craving for Indian food after being out on the road on a family trip and I found Zaika in North Miami on my search which was rated good as the other restaurant which was rated better was closed. We decided to try it anyway. Staff was excellent and very accommodating. Food was better than our expectations. We finished everything we ordered as it was that good. I would recommend this restaurant without any hesitation to anyone

This is Indian food that is not worth the trip. The portions have always been undersized and loaded with a large clump of white rice. You will struggle to find the small morsels of lamb or chicken drowning in the curry sauce. Look at the average price for an entree of 18.00-22.00 (a la carte) and above and struggle to find the chicken,lamb small cuts of meat and its not worth the trip or the price you pay. The complimentary The seating inside is a disaster with uncomfortable bar stools and tables left open and unused. Congested dining with no elbow room. Never had a decent meal here and are guaranteed to leave feeling gouged with overpriced small portions that are very mediocre in taste. Nothing much goes into the preparation. South Florida is not a good place for Indian food and this place should be avoided.

Having lived in London for a number of years, I have been looking for a good Indian restaurant for many years. Recently I went to Zaika indian Cuisine and I was pleasantly surprised at the great food there. Most of the dishes are very good....Only negative: the naan bread was not fluffy and light. But the rest was excellent. Very well known in the area and the locals seem to flock to the restaurant. If you are in the area you will not regret the detour.

I returned to Zaika after more than a year to find it had grown to twice the size and even better food. The flavors are delicious and the prices are still reasonable. It will now be one of my regular visits. Congratulations Zaika, for growing and getting better.

Every time we pass by we see the restaurant full. Finally we decided to come.. wow excellent food. Great service. Authentic Indian food in Miami beach

Last night we went for dinner at zaika. Shrimp curry , lamb rodolong, grilled chicken and rice. All dishes 'Indian spices' Just delicious as always Mr monosh.

This is definitely one of the best Indian restaurants I've been to in the states. It's off the beaten track in a small strip mall. But well worth the deter. We went there on a Sunday evening and was lucky to get a table, so my advice is book a table, especially if it's more than two of ye. Also a big plus for me was most of the customers were Indian, ALWAYS a good sign

Once again, we stopped by Zaika Indian Cuisine for dinner. And again it was very good! Their menu is a selection of both Northern and Southern Cuisines, however very balanced. The flavors were incredible! Their staff is warm and welcoming besides being very helpful. They will guide you thru their menu and provide insight to the amount of spice along with the portion size. We will deffinitly return again

Finally an Indian restaurant I can actually say is good!! Great flavors in everything we ordered, top that off with great service, this place is amazing. Would def recommend the shahi veg korma.

We ate here for the first time tonight and it was amazing! Our waiter suggested garlic naan bread which was fabulous! Then he suggested samosa which were also great. My husband got a chicken wing appetizer which came with five, that he loved! For a main course we had lamb with a cashew sauce. Everything was delicious including the rice. I've never seen so much wait staff, runners, and people to clear the tables. Best service I've ever had in a restaurant. Will definitely go back!

I am so in love with this place. Cosy, the food amazing. The Mango Lassi, samosa it like a party in your mouth bursting with flavors. Everything that i have had there is soooooooooo good

If you are looking for great Indian food, Zaika is the place to find it! Located in North Miami in a strip center, the restaurant has friendly service and fabulous food.

Great Indian restaurant! The place is very simple but the food it’s amazing, I order seafood and my husband order a lamb, bought amazing! I highly recommend!

Excellent food. For starters I had an appetizer of samosa and a basket of naan bread. Then an entrée of chicken tikka masala in a thick tomato-based spicy sauce. This came with a bowl of white rice, which I used to soak up some of the sauce. Delicious. But there wasn't much chicken. Classy dining and bar areas. White table cloths. Enjoyable dining experience.

This is an indian restaurant in Miami , getting good North Indian food , has a parking space also , worth for indian to visit

Everything was really good. I wouldn't say there was a "wow!" dish, but everything we had was consistently really good. The service was good, parking was easy. AND, unlike many Indian restaurants that give you a dish with 4 small pieces of chicken and a bowl of sauce, there's actually enough to satiate your hunger and take some home.

I have been to this restauarant many times with my friends who were novice to Indian food, Everyone has loved the food and raved about it for long time. Many of them have gone back with me because they loved the food.

Had a visitor in Miami Shores and not being familiar with the area, relied on Google which came up with Zaika. Tucked away in a strip mall, it was packed on a Thursday evening at 7:30pm. The vegetable pakoras were a perfect appetizer - crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, the lentil and vegetable mix complementing each other and topped off by a sweet tamarind sauce. We had the malai kofta, makhni paneer and alu gobi with rice and garlic naan. The curries for all three dishes were distinct, the condiments lent the right amount of flavor and the medium spicy level was exactly that. Portions were not large and three dishes were enough for three hungry people. Didn't try the desserts but topped it off with masala chai which was not disappointing. If ever I'm in the area, I would definitely go back.

Had lunch here and i can say this is among the best Indian restaurant in Miami. The menu offers good variety of indian food which is cooked based on your taste of spice. We ordered vegetable pakoras, daal and chicken. Pakoras were maid like a round pastry had a nice taste but i think should be cooked in their usual style so even they are cooked from inside. The food has a good taste to it. The staff is friendly and professional

We love Zaika for month and we went for lunch again. Lamb , shrimp and chicken just perfect. Whatever sauce you pick. If you feel for true hot, go for Indian spice ! Enjoy

Cockroaches were found in the rest room. It was highly disappointing and disgusting. The entire mood of eating was off.

Visited with family of 5 with kids he charges 20% mandatory extra for the Gratuity. On the top he again expects more tip. No sauce is provided with tandoori items expects guest to swallow with water. Butter chicken curry is watery not thick as expected chef needs some training.

some innovative dishes, very fast service and very friendly staff. The best chana masala we have every had. Huge portions.

We were in a hurry and wanted to visit the restaurant as a stop over to eat food quickly and move on with our journey. We ordered food over the phone and within short time after we reached, our food was available for us at the table. The restaurant was quite busy at that time. I am really happy with that service and for the taste of the food.

The wait staff were excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. They were very kind to us and accommodating with our toddler, clean high chairs and bathrooms with baby change table. Highly recommend

The food is amazing, the service first rate and there is always someone to give you advice about anything on the menu that may not be familiar to you. Everyone we have taken to Zaika has returned for another meal. I work at a museum and sent a visitor to Zaika when they were looking for an Indian restaurant. They came back the next day to say thank you for the recommendation.

Great Indian Restaurant 👌🏽! I had samosas, Lamb Rogan Josh, Onion Kulcha, Cheese Nan and Yellow Dal. I ordered the highest spicy level and they met my expectations ( I sweated 🥵)

I came with my family for my B'day. Dinner was delicious abd service amazing! I recommend to make reservations before going. The pistachio ice cream was delicious! Will be back soon!

I had dinner at this restaurant with my friends. We have ordered Chicken Biryani, Mutton Biryani, Veg biryani, Palak Panneer and Butter naan. The food is tasty and delicious.

Our family of eight ate lunch here last Sunday, this restaurant exceeded our expectations! It was fantastic. Great Indian food in a pleasing setting. The price was fair .I would seek to eat here again.

I had Lamb Vindaloo, I wanted it very hot and did get it. My wife had Lamb RoganJosh her favorite dish. Both were excellent. I do miss that they don't have meat samosas. Also no Kashmiri pulao. Indian food goes great with Gerwutztraminer wine but since they none we settled for Riesling. Any time we go to an Indian restaurant the Muliigatawny soup is so diffrerent it is their own creation. Since it is a British colonialist addition to Indian cuisine I can understand that. The only great Mulligatawny soup I have had was at Raffles Tippin Room in Singapore. The Raita was a little too thick. These are minor points. I will be coming back when I am in the area. The service was so attentive I was taken aback. The place was crowded to capacity. It is so popular.

We enjoyed our lunch here one Sunday and liked it so much we came back for lunch a few days later. The place is popular and for good reason. This place serves excellent Indian food. The appetizer to the bread to the main to the rice were all good. The Chicken and spinach dish was one of the best versions of this dish that we have ever had and we have eaten in 100s of Indian restaurants. The chicken was moist and tender, and the spinach was not pureed too fine and still had body. We will eat here again if the opportunity arises and would certainly drive out of our way to eat here. Wait that’s what we did as this was 25 min from our hotel.

The taste of food is fabulous...and the quantity for the prices is also good..you might want to reserve in advance..considering that the place is quite busy..

It’s a typical family restaurant, perfect for a get-together with some friends or for couples.This place needs help with its decor, but it offers a modern approach to traditional Indian food.

This is probably one of the best Indian restaurants in south Florida. Went over the Christmas weekend as most of our regular haunts were closed and was really happy with the quality of food. Only problem was the crowd (we did not that we could make advance reservations) but it was worth the forty minutes wait. Other issue was the masala chai and carrot halwa was not available.

We always like to try and find an Indian restaurant when we are on holiday and I chose this one because I liked the look of the dishes on their menu. We weren't disappointed. I would advise booking if you go on a Saturday night, we didn't so we had to wait a little (which shows how popular it is) but it was well worth the wait. Once we were seated the service was really good - friendly and attentive without being too much. We didn't have to wait long to order or to receive our food. We ordered loads and all of it was really tasty, scrumptious, well-seasoned and with the right level of spice (they asked how hot we wanted it when we ordered). The portions were generous and at the end they brought us little plastic tubs to put what we hadn't managed to eat in so that we could take it home and enjoy it all over again the next day. If I am ever in Miami again I will definitely go there. YUM!

We were on a road trip from VA beach ....dined at many indian restaurants ...but this place had amazing food and very quick service...friendly staff...highly recommend this restaurant.

One of the best Indian curries I have ever eaten, the flavours and spices were beyond delicious and the staff were super polite and friendly If you want a curry this is the place to go!!

Decided to host an Indian dinner at our home and of course from Zaika ! Needed some guidance and Manoj is great ! He told me what yes and what not as well as how many orders of each and the result was just a success !!! The food was delicious 😋 Samosas, Chicken Tika Masala, Butter Chicken, Lamb Korma, Malabri Shrimp, the chickpeas, the Naans, and the Papadam are all a must !! Thank You !

In for dinner on a Thursday at 6 pm. Not busy and was seated right away. Ordered Samosa appetizer. Only 2 for $5.50. Mango Chutney $1.95. About 1 tablespoon. Garlic Nan $3.95. 1 Piece Kadai Gosht $17.95. Medium spicy. Pieces of lamb cooked in onion, tomato, green peppers and spices gravy. VERY FLAT. NO SPICE. Not much flavor at all. Server never came back to see if all was OK.

Great service and food! Definitely try the Tandori Mushrooms as an appetizer. Main restaurant area is comfortable and provides opportunities to engage with locals.

I'm glad to find a good Indian restaurant close to the house. Zaika really meet my expectations after coming from DC where we have several outstanding Indian restaurants. The location great, with sufficient parking place. The place clean and many customers from India and US as well making the line for a table. Bread good and a huge basket for one person. By the way the plates were very generous and well presented. The yogurt very good refreshing my mouth after the spicy food. Lamb in a tomato, ginger and spices excellent in flavor and quality. To come back and try different options Rating: 4.00

coming into that place - as always - we were friendly greting, but neither the manager at the door nor his assistant found the time, to greet back: so we had also to find a table ourselves. fortunately a friendlier young waiter showed as the way. second surprise, what I chose from the menue: " this is out !" finally we put our orders together and had a rather satisfacting meal. Even when we left, the manager was to busy ( in empty restaurant !) to say good bye. These people have some attitued! Fortunately there are many other restaurants to go to: and we definitely not turn again.

Food could be better, it is abundant but that’s all. The worst part is the service. Avoid seating in any table around the bar. The bartender will be your server and he needs to learn a lot about dining service. His wine knowledge is 0. Too bad because North Miami needs a good Indian restaurant.

I have often yearned for good Indian food at reasonable prices here in Miami. After discovering Zaika, I need look no further. Everything we had was delectable, made with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. For our starters we had the (vegetarian) pakoras, samosas and papadum served with flavorful dipping sauces. Main course I had was the Lamb Chop Masala, so tender, prepared with tomato, ginger, garlic, and onion. As a side we shared the Garlic Naan bread, Palak Paneer, (a favorite dish of spinach with cheese) and aromatic rice. My friend had the sizzling Tandoori Chicken. For desert, I had the divinely delicious Mango Kulfi. There is plenty of seating at this jewel of a restaurant, nestled in a small shopping center in Sans Souci — which is convenient both to the mainland and Miami Beach. The restaurant is very clean, including the restroom. Service is friendly and attentive. For anyone looking for outstanding Indian cuisine, I highly recommend Zaika.

Food was very good. Service was good too. They helped us with a drop to our place when it was looking tough to manage without our own vehicle.

Simply wonderful Indian food. Comfortable seats and efficient dervice. The naan was excellent, best I've had. Restaurant is in an unpretentious strip mall. Don't be put off. You'll make this your go to spot for Indian food.

I am always worried when I have a curry away from home. However this place was great. There was a large group of us with different tastes and tolerance to heat. The server accommodated all requests for variations and heat levels. The food was very tasty and a good portion size.

Had dinner with friends at this local eatery where Indian food if served in a very relaxed environment. Zaikai does not have an extensive menu; never the less, what they do have is enough for you to taste India. The lamb was very good. Lentil dishes are outstanding. Nan is good but they could do better. Raita was a disappointment. They only serve white jasmine rice with all dishes... Vegetarian selection could be better. Indians are known for their Vegetarian dishes. As for appetizers, once again, the selection is narrowed down to maybe 5. We had pistachio Kulfi for dessert. Since sharing caring and here you can and should. If you do, price will be nice.

We'eve eaten here for lunch numerous times and also for dinner.The food is great, spiced to your taste, and plentiful. The lunch specials are fabulous. I've seen the restaurant expand as the word went around, and I'm so glad.

After going by the 5 star rating on Yelp, we decided to visit Zaika for our wedding anniversary. Being tourists in Miami it was heartwarming to see such a fabulous Indian restaurant with tasty, succulent and authentic mouthwatering "desi" food. Our starter was a murg malai kabab which was well marinated with a sizeable quantity. Papadoms were fried to perfection and the green chutney goes down extremely well as an appetiser. The wine list was extensive and we went in for a Perosecco. Our main course was Lamb biryani, Lamb saag, Chicken korma and chicken tikka masala with naan bread. The biryani was scrumptious, the chicken korma had a smooth and delightful flavour, the chicken tikka pieces were extremely well done and delectable. All the gravy was wiped out with the naan bread and overall it was finger licking delicious. The deserts we had were Mango and Pista kulfi with Gulab jams. These were the perfect Indian sweets to complete the divine meal. Personally met up with the one of the Owners- Manoj and the Chef- Avneesh ; to congratulate them on such a well run establishment. The service was warm, prompt with an emphasis on traditional Indian hospitality. It felt we were back in Mumbai !!!! I will be definitely returning to Zaika whenever I revisit Miami to sample the yummy food with utterly authentic flavor.

I absolutely loved this little restaurant. if you want a great experience for trying Indian Cuisine with great quality and really affordable prices, this is the place! My girlfriend, some friends and I went recently and we were able to experience a whole variety of dishes, including lamb, naan bread with garlic, vegetable stews, chikpeas, and Gulab Jamun. great restaurant!

Really Zaika is the best Indian restaurant in Miami, Food, Service ,Ambiance and Cleanliness was superb, all staffs are very friendly and helpful, specially food was divine.If you are looking best meal in the city deferentially visit to ZAIKA.

At this moment I do not consider my self a well educated or a knowledgeable person about Indian cuisine. Our visit to this restaurant was the result of a series of recommendations from a good friend at work, he is indian so I approached him in a search for good indian places and it did not disappoint. We had samosa as appetizers and it did taste perfect then as entrees we asked for the lamb chops from the tandoor clay oven plus lamb roganjosh and both were excellent. Service was good and the gentleman in charge of helped all the way suggesting and giving us advice. We live about 43 minutes away so it is not a short trip but apart from that the experience was very good.

If you are tired of meat, diners and pizza of all sorts and you need to titillate your taste buds with some exotic, spicy, yet delicate tastes, this is a place you should be looking for. Real indian cuisine like the one I used to have in Delhi, nice atmosphere - but, please, waiters, try not to be efficient too much American style: relax and smile a little bit more, the Indian style - and you'll turn Zaika into the perfect ideal Indian restaurant. P.s. Lunch menu is a real bargain!

We decided to have food @ this restaurant following all the good reviews here.However to our dismay, the food was not what we expected. We ordered aloo tikki in the starters and veg biryani in the main course.First thing the food is not cheap, second the quality is not as good as the prices they marked. The rice in the veg biryani were not properly cooked. Also the yogurt served with it felt as if someone mixed 3-4 spoons of yogurt in 2 bowls of water. Aloo tikki was fine not WOW. Also as we are spicy lovers, the food was not as spicy as we requested and salt was less too. I would not recommend this restaurant unless one is desperate to have indian food in this area.

Best Indian food in Miami Great food with the exact amount of spices and the chicken Tika masala is superb Service is very good and the atmosphere is good, I have dine here many times and I will come back over and over

The Resturant is good , a lot matters on the service. I go here a lot and Mayur has waited on me a lot begire too. He has excellent guest service very professional and always checks if everything is fine and refills etc . I really enjoy there with great service ! I commend him a lot ! I will also cost with my friends ans family ! Dr. Rajiv Bhardwaj

Everything is really delish. The tikka Masada is great and the sagg looks scary but is awesome. Can't go wrong.

Wow this is where East meets West, chicken tikka masala, samosas and naan bread. The tastes and spices blend so well together it's like eating a symphony in each bite! I can't wait to go back for more. Try it you'll like it!

This place is so authentic Indians wish it was back in India! It’s Devine food in a nice ambiance with ok service. The food is the super star here though. Tandoori wings were delectable, as was the Naan bread and BUTTER CHICKEN! Every drop of BC sauce got sopped up by my Naan. The pistachio ice cream for dessert was likewise delish! Top Notch cuisine is the attraction at Zaika.

having mother's day dinner at zaika indian cuisine was a wonderful experience. i liked all my vegetarian choices. the sweet nan was the perfect dessert for me. their mango chutney is superb. it must be home-made and is the best i have ever had. attention to customers and service were prompt. wait staff seemed to need more training to make for perfect table service. and if the flower in the glass were real, i would give this restaurant another star.

I went to an Indian clothing store and they recommended this restaurant, it is the best Indian restaurant I've tried here in south Florida, my new spot!

This was my second time here and Zaika did not disappoint! My first time I had the Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Korma and the Garlic Naan. My second time here, we had the Samosas, Lamb Korma, Shrimp Curry and the Paneer Naan. Everything was delicious and generous portions. Loved the fact they refill your rice bowl and if the sauces are too spice, they offer you greek yogurt to tone it down a bit. FYI: This place can get very busy, it's best to call ahead and get a reservation. We cannot wait to go back again!

The best Indian food. Excellent services and very fresh. This restaurant is new in Weston. I like Lamb chop

A hidden gem in Miami The food is excellent.The waiters are very helpful and the whole experience a must

Excellent dishes specialy in Miami best Indian beside Indian restaurants in London like Bombay Brasserie in Kensington. Service are fast,polite waiters very quiet Indians personnel. Clean place and cute decorations.need ligh on the corner table like candle. Will definitely go back as well take out or delivery. Better to order mild to medium food unless you stomach can accept hot and really spicy. Desserts not impressive better stay away,home made ice scream not great.

I think that this is the best Indian restaurant in town. I have been to others but none really compare to the quality of restaurant and food. Ideal for a date, the place is very cozy inside and has an elegant air to it. Highly recommended.

Amazingly flavorful food. Authentic Indian cuisine. Exceeded our expectations. The only disappointment was my daughter's allergic reaction to some of the ingredients. People with food allergies beware. Despite the incident will definitely go back again. Excellent.

OMG...the food at Zaika is amazing! Authentic Indian cuisine located in a strip center right in the middle of San Souci (North Miami). It was a pleasant culinary surprise. Curries were flavored with complex spice, while the Tandoori was tender and seasoned to perfection. For starters, order the garlic Naan bread with tasty spreads and then you can go from there...Enjoy!

For the most intense and traditional Indian flavors in Miami, look no further than Zaika! Every dish is exquisite, bold and rich... There is nothing that compares to their varied menu with my personal favorites ranging from Chicken Tikka Masala & Lamb Roganjosh...to a slew of vegetarian dishes that will make you want to convert to vegan! The staff is absolutely magnificent.. Special thanks to Manouj and Naresh, who own the restaurant and make you feel like family!

We wee having a friends gathering and some in the party had been to Zaika before, it was my first time. We didn't have a reservation and for a Sunday night it was pretty crowded, we had to wait about 10 minutes,not bad at all. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, well lit and has a nice ambiance. We didn't order a lot of food just a few dishes to share: samosas, Tandoori chicken, mushrooms mikhana, baigan bharta, accommodated to the heat levels we requested. Everything was scrumptious !! The service was great as well. Overall it was a delightful experience and will certainly return,

We had lunch in Zaika, Miami. The food taste was really good. Getting authentic Indian taste in US Indian restaurant is difficult but Zaika was close enough! We had tasty biryani after long time and our toddler enjoyed the mango shake too..The service and ambience was good too. The best part was it’s onsite parking ;).. (an onsite parking in Miami is a bliss haha)..

I found it on Yelp and that was exactly what we wanted-exotic, tasty and not overpriced. Service is great, place opens 5:30 and has happy hour 5:30-6:30 cocktails. We had wine, salmon on grill, lamb karma. Everything was great

we ve been several times and come back again and again. food is just delicious, authentic, tasty and impeccable service. just go and try it !

The best ! Spices are on point , the flavors are never diluted like some Indian restaurants we have been to in the past. Delicious every time .

Amazing food. Everything is top notch. Veggie currys, lamb, chicken Tikka Masala, Rogan Josh and supreme Vindaloo for the most adventurous. The mushrooms are exquisite! It´s a must for indian food lovers!

Went here due to good ratings on trip advisor - this review is only to authenticate the reviews -- Must visit if you love Indian Punjabi food ...

Having lived in India for several years, I am very picky about Indian food. I had poppadum, salt lassi, mutter paneer and butter nan. Well cooked, rich and delicious. I wish they served a vegetarian thali. I plan to return and try every veg dish they make. the decor is very pleasing, as there are two rooms, one bright with a bar, the other softly lit.

Yes, I agree! This is a wonderfully comfortable restaurant with really good food and good service. At first I was sad not to see a buffet - then you can taste a variety of foods, but that would have watered down the really excellent single dishes. The lunch specials are special, each dish comes with either a samosa or soup, naan and of course rice. I had the lamb vindaloo, my friend the lamb curry. We each tasted each others samosa and lentil soup - really tasty soup. The samosa was a bit spicy, but the chutney cooled it down. The entrees were equally tasty - you are given your choice of level of spicyness, good. I look forwarded to returning.

Do not ask any questions , the manager is not very friendly , they only know one way , I guess that it is the indian way .

We tried different vegetarian dishes and a few appetizers and everything was really perfectly spiced and delightful. The Fresh veggies cooked in a creamy gravy, the Malai kofta and the yellow dal is really very recommendable. Their Nam bread is really a must eat. For dessert we had Indian carrot pudding with raisins and the homemade ice-cream flavored w/nuts/pistachio. We did not drink alcohol this time but the lassi and green tea was nice. All in all a very nice restaurant, friendly and courteous service and the prices are good. It's a small place so a reservation is recommendable.

I happened to stumble upon this restaurant as we were looking for an Indian restaurant near Bal Harbour. I knew the address but I had never seen it as it is in a big strip mall, so we were unsure. Due to the location as well, we decided to go without making a reservation as we assumed we wouldn't need one (you don't really, but it's recommended if you don't want to wait). When we got there, the place was extremely busy and there was a line; we were only two, so the host made an extra effort to accommodate us as soon as possibke, so we only waited for a very short time. Food is great, very well prepared and fresh; and once again, service is very fast. Even though there are long queues, no one rushes you and this is highly appreciated in places with limited seating. Great value as well. I definitely recommend this place and surely, I will be back myself but I'll make reservations next time.
