The restaurant is lovely and its the perfect surroundings for a lovely evening out. The food was lovely, not huge portions I have to say and it is I think, a little too expensive for what you get. I would recommend it though!

Absolutely fabulous! We ate here in 2016 and it blew us away, was apprehensive to come back because it had been so good the first time however we were blown away once again! The cocktails, food, service and overall ambience were out of this world! Cannot wait to come back! Don’t walk, RUN to Zaika!

Excellent original Indian food. No English twist to it. Staff are excellent at helping to choose menu. Great experience. Can not praise enough. Try Raj Kachori!

We loved our dinner at Zaika. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely wonderful! We had the halibut curry and the prawn curry, lemon rice, potatoes and naan, and everything was fresh, hot, flavourful and satisfying. We would HIGHLY recommend Zaika.
