" I always look for Indian restaurants when I travel. Zaika captured my heart with authentic flavors and options for everyone in my family. I savored every bite of their paneer dishes, and the purple rice was a surprise! The staff was friendly, adding to the welcoming vibe. I recommend trying their lunch buffet, though they could improve on keeping the food warm and fresh. Overall, I'll return for the friendly vibe and tasty food! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing rave reviews about Zaika, I finally visited and tried the buffet. While I loved the variety including vegan options, some items were lukewarm. The flavors were enjoyable, but I felt some dishes could have benefitted from more spice, which seems like a common wish among Indian food lovers. I hope they improve the serving temperature of the buffet, but I will return to give them another chance. The staff was kind and helpful, which was a plus! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zaika offers a wonderful dining experience. My family and I enjoyed a mix of their famous dosas and various curries. Each dish was carefully crafted, showcasing traditional flavors. The spacious setting gave us plenty of room to enjoy our meal. Our server was friendly and professional, adding to the positive atmosphere. Overall, a great place for Indian food in Austin that prioritizes customer service! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Zaika Indian Cuisine while searching for Indian food in Austin. I was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and the variety of dishes available. We ordered a mix of vegan and vegetarian options, and everything was packed with flavor. The masala chai was one of the best I've ever had! My only complaint was the slightly long wait time despite not being busy. Overall, highly recommend! I will definitely be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" An authentic Indian culinary experience! The naan was fluffy and fresh, and the butter chicken was divine. I particularly loved the range of vegetarian dishes on the menu that kept my vegan friend happy too! Service was attentive but not intrusive, allowing us to enjoy our meal leisurely. The decor made for a nice atmosphere, and when the weather is nice, the patio is a perfect spot to dine. Can't wait to return for their buffet this weekend! " (*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*)
