" We had quite the experience at Zaika. The food was elevated, but some dishes needed more seasoning. I ordered the vegetable biryani, which was a bit on the bland side, but the presentation was lovely. However, our server was attentive, and the ambiance was pleasant. It's nice to see a place that has vegan options, and I'll likely give it another go. Here's hoping for a better experience next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is phenomenal! I participated in the Sunday buffet and was blown away by the selection. Each dish was a burst of flavor, and I can confidently say this is one of the best Indian buffets around. The ambiance is relaxed and perfect for a long sit-down meal with friends. However, I would advise on arriving early since the place fills up fast! Would definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Zaika last weekend, and I must say, the dosas are out of this world! Freshly made, they were crispy and the filling was perfect. The staff was incredibly accommodating, even customizing a dish for my dietary restrictions. Although the restaurant was a bit crowded, the environment felt welcoming and friendly. I love supporting local businesses that care about their customers, and Zaika doesn't disappoint. This will become my go-to Indian restaurant in Austin! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zaika has quickly become a favorite of mine! The vibrant flavors and aromas bring back memories of trips to India. The buffet is a great deal, and I enjoyed practically everything I tried, especially the spicy pumpkin curry. Service was fast and efficient, and I appreciated the ambiance—perfect for a casual dinner with friends. I can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zaika delivers! The service was fast, and our food came out hot and fresh. I had the butter chicken, which was rich and creamy, while my partner enjoyed the saag paneer and loved it. The ambiance is simple yet pleasant, making it a relaxing dining experience. Prices are reasonable too, which is a big bonus. Will surely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Food was freshly prepared and quite delicious. I went during the lunch hour and was impressed by their quick service. I ordered the lamb rogan josh, and it was one of the best I've tasted in the area. However, the ambiance felt a bit too casual for my taste, more like a fast-food take on Indian dining than a true experience. Still, it's a great value, and I will be back for takeout. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! The samosas were a great starter, and I was particularly impressed with the paneer makhani. The flavors reminded me of my grandmother's cooking. The only downside was that it took a bit for my main dish to arrive, but the staff was apologetic and checked on us often. I think I may have found my new favorite Indian restaurant. Definitely returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)
