" I was ecstatic to visit Zareen's and experience the acclaimed chicken curry. It was spiced just right but felt a bit salty for my taste. The naan was delightful, fluffy, and paired well with the dish. The service was attentive, and the atmosphere energetic, albeit busy! I’d still recommend Zareen’s for a diverse menu that caters to everyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Zareen's has fantastic kebabs! Their flavors are authentic and they have a great variety to choose from. The environment feels vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a casual meal. The staff was attentive even though it was busy, making the experience pleasant overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Zareen's and went in with high expectations. While the atmosphere was lovely and bustling, I found the food to be a bit underwhelming compared to what I had read in other reviews. The Chicken Curry was fine, but I felt it lacked depth in flavor. Perhaps it was just an off-day for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" Zareen's offers a great escape into the world of South Asian cuisine, right in Palo Alto. I recently had their paneer tikka and it was surprisingly filling! The atmosphere is busy and bustling, which adds to the experience if you enjoy a lively dining setting. While some areas for improvement in service speed exist, the delicious food keeps me coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zareen's has become one of my family's favorite dining spots! We love going there for lunch on weekends. The options are authentic and flavorful. The mango lassi is a must-have on hot days. My kids particularly enjoy the chicken burger they offer, and I appreciate that the staff is always friendly and accommodating. A great spot for families! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time at Zareen's and I was pleasantly surprised! The flavors in their dishes reminded me of home. I had the Nihari and it transported me back to my roots. The staff was attentive and polite even when it was busy. Can't wait to bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zareen's has finally won me over with its exciting menu options! Recently, I tried their chicken tikka wrap and it was stuffed generously. The flavors were authentic, and I loved how they feature traditional drinks like lassi. It’s a beautiful space, but it can get loud during peak times. Nevertheless, I plan to return soon!
