Reviews for Zaika Indian Cuisine - Colorado Springs in Colorado Springs, CO

The Chicken Biryani and Lamb Curry I ordered was one of the best Indian food dishes I’ve ever tasted in over the last 18... years…the food was so delicious and flavors were layered with bold tastes that I completely forgot to take photos of thedishes until it was too late ???? The only thing even better that the food was the amazing exemplary service that Sami providedour large party of 7. She also educated us that the dishes are influenced by Northern India region.

We came in here kind of late in the evening, but it was definitely worth it! The food was really good and the service was... excellent. This first dish was his and it's lamb. Mine was probably chicken, I can't remember (3-15-2019), but my memories ofthe place and the food were that it was excellent and I was happy and satisfied! ;-) The naans did have a lot of butter or oilon them, but that was probably my only and very minor complaint. :-) Read more

4.5 stars. After disappointment at several other Indian restaurants in the southern Colorado area, I was pleasantly surprised by... these guys because their food is actually good!! The ambience is bright and happy. If you sit at the booths, the menu is postedon the wall. They told us they had raised the prices about an hour before we showed up. I mean, really? Who increases prices ona random sat afternoon. Any way, we ordered the Kerala curry with chicken, the lamb biryani and two garlic naans. I alsoordered a masala chai. The chai was very good but could've done with a little less sugar. The garlic naans we're superdelicious and fluffy. We could not stop eating them. The Kerala curry was nice too. I would have liked more chicken pieces. Theymade it a level 4 as we requested but next time I'm ordering a level 5 as the spicy level was still not spicy enough for me. Thelamb biryani was not dum, as the server told us right at the start. It definitely felt more like lamb pulao. It was very verytasty just not a biryani. All in all, good quantity. My friend and I ate to our hearts fill and yet had at least another mealleftover. Pricing was ok except for that rising price part. Will definitely be back here in the future. Read more

I’m vacationing in Colorado Springs and we wanted to try something new, so we googled “best restaurants nearby” and Zaika... had one of the best ratings in the area. We absolutely LOVE Indian food so it was an obvious choice and were we NOTdisappointed. Every item we ordered was prepared to perfection and it was some of the best Indian food I’ve ever tasted, andnow one of my new favorite restaurants. We come to this area every few years to enjoy the scenery and I will be returning tothis restaurant every opportunity. I highly recommend the Veggie Samosa appetizer, I think that’s what they’re called.They’re made from a mix of potatoes, peas and spices among other things, and they’re fried in a crispy, golden brown dough.They also provide a mint chutney sauce and another jam made from tamarins to dip them in. Anyways, it was one of the mostenchanting and interesting mixtures of flavors and textures which I 10/10 highly recommend. Along with the superior quality offood, the service was exceptional. Our server Sami was super funny and almost made me launch my mojito out of my nostrilslaughing. We had a ton of questions and she had all the right answers from recommending things to listing ingredients for us.She really is just a delightful human being. Thanks Sami!! Read more

Food was fresh and enjoyable. There is an option to choose your spice level (1-5) for most of the dishes. I recommend the Saag... Chicken. Good place for some tasty Indian food. Read more

While taking our daughter to her dance lessons we were tempted by the smell of Indian food. Lo and behold we were pleasantly... surprised by this bright and airy restaurant. The servers were friendly and efficient, the food was delightful and so very fast.Even the rice was remarkable. The mango Lassie was also quite delicious. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!
