Zaika Restaurant in Blaby

We love coming to Zaika....food is so tasty and the service is wonderful We use their takeaway service regularly too which is also very good

Amazing restaurant.... The best around in blaby. The service from H, Abu, and zahin was immaculate. Highly recommend the restaurant.

Came with a friend, we hadn't booked and managed to get a table. Excellent service, friendly atmosphere and great food! Will definitely be coming back! :)

Good food nice menu will go back try other things

I was pleasantly surprised of how nice this restaurant was. Service was really nice. Atmosphere was cosy and intimate. Food was of fresh ingredients. Made with love. I've not tasted good food like this in a long time❤️

Zaika is an absolutely amazing curry house. Personally I am 12 years old and I loved their chicken korma and will be going again soon. The staff are very friendly and talkative.

Excellent service and food by abu and H highly recommend

Great food,good service,very clean 10/10 👍

First-class restaurant.. Fantastic menu...top quality...best Indian around

Really glad we found this place. The welcome, service and food were all fantastic. Great flavours! Highly recommended!

Went to Zaika with my so on a friday evening, for the first time, to give it a try out. we had poppadoms, pickles, onion bahji, meat samosa, Garlic Chili Chicken, Chicken Jalfrezi, Garlic Naan and keema naan from the fixed menu. Then we ordered a couple of Pilau rice extra. The pickle tray was quality. The starters were delicious. The Mains had got "the flavour," the garlic chilli chicken in particular had that deep roasted garlic aroma and heat that only good Indian restaurants can achieve. The breads were crisp on the bottom but tender though out. The keema naan was a delicious meal in it's self, not greasy but with a rich flavour. The service was nice, polite and friendly but not intrusive . The decor is astounding ... Great for a date night with a hottie, and the ambient temperature means clothing can be skimpy without a chill. There's a unique edge to the ambience that may appeal to our friends in the LGBTQ+ Community, too. Another great touch was the dry ice bubbler (low frequency rippler)... Far more exciting than a tea candle. Upstairs we could hear people having a great time, saying "yummy," "Delicious," "so tasty" and "Try some of this it's bloody delicious." Great night 5 stars all round.

Food was great and the atmosphere was lovely. The service from Faz and H was amazing. I will definitely be back.

Great service from Faz and H. The food was awesome.

Lovely staff and good was amazing, will definitely come back

Gorgeous food, lovely staff and such a great atmosphere! Such a gorgeous interior and delicious food! Such an amazing birthday! Thank you guys x

From start to finish a complete Shambles .Booked 2 weeks ago , but when we walked in seemed shocked to see us had to wait half and hour for a table , waited for drinks even longer .Seated upstairs, but then brought the starters, but we hadn't had the poppadoms, the waiter said ,I'll bring those afterwards,so we had them with our main course . I had a Bhuna my husband had Rogan josh , tasted exactly the same , which was tastless tomato stew more than curry .Still waiting for second drink with took another hour .Take my advice don't bother .

Great food and portion sizes, nice staff, and very nice inside especially upstairs🤌🏽

came here for my mates birthday, great service , great prices, and a really amazing atmosphere, big props to the people running it, made us feel at home

We have been a few times and always had the set menu. They have some Asian dishes that you don't usually see on th average Indian Restaurant and are lovely. Great service and great food

Abu was our waiter, brilliant food excellent servic 10/10

Lovely time at Zaika! Delicious food, fabulous service from FAZ. Looking forward to returning again. Thank you H and Faz!

Lovely time at Zaika! Delicious food, fabulous service from FAZ. Looking forward to returning again. Thank you H and Faz!

A hidden gem! Amazing service, we really felt welcomed, not to mention the beautiful food. We came for our dad’s birthday and were given some surprise cake and shots! Amazing experience and I would like to thank the team, especially Faz, for their hospitality, courtesy and welcoming nature. We will be returning! Gaz

Best Indian food and best customer service.

Best Indian and best customer service. Thank you H and faz for such a wonderful time we had at zaiks. Will definitely come back

Love this restaurant, foods always amazing, everyone’s always so polite and friendly. Perfect restaurant for any occasion.

First time takeaway from Zaika, tasy and well presented food. Possibly the best Indian takeaway we have had in a long time.

This is a remarkable Indian restaurant or takeaway. The food is out of this world, and well worth a visit. The prices are very reasonable considering the cost of living crisis. This establishment goes above and beyond with their food and service. I can't recommend them highly enough. We will not go anywhere else now. We have found this gem of an Indian. We made a 12-mile round trip for this food, so I guess that says it all, really. Just give it a try, and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Went early (6pm) at the last minute, 3 of us. Very good value on the set menu, there were others eating there and a nice atmosphere. The food was classic BIR and very nice. We all enjoyed it. Good service and we had a chat with the waiter. We’re infrequently in this area every 6 months or so and will go again. Best of the area and we’ve tried some of the restaurants in Narborough and Enderby.

Ordered delivery. Arrived well in time and driver was very polite. Food was very good quality. Will order again. Highly recommend!!

A lovely belated birthday meal. Food was excellent, of good quality and beautifully presented. Staff attentive, polite and immaculate. The quirky decor of this place made for a very pleasant and relaxed evening. Extremely good value for money.

Had the pleasure of dining. I must say it was an extraordinary culinary experience that left my taste buds dancing with delight! The service was attentive and prompt, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations for those unfamiliar with Indian cuisine. This restaurant is an absolute must-visit💯

I don’t know what happened but recently a had like 8 dishes from this place and all of them were flat in flavour. Looks like a chef forgot about salt and most likely not tasting before serving. My last dish a put back on the pan with a clove of garlic and some cumin, chilli and garam masala plus lemon juice and salt and it was great after. Hope for quick improvement as just little is needed to go back on the right track.

Food - Amazing Service - fantastic (shout out to Josh & H) Value for money - excellent Decor - beautiful

Me and my family of 13 came here lastnight for my mums 70th birthday. We've been here several times before and we are never disappointed. We had such an amazing night and the staff made the night brilliant!!! They're extremely friendly, punctual and attentive. The food is amazing. This is the best Indian restaurant I've been to. Loved every minute of it. Thank you guys for making my mums birthday meal brilliant!!!! We will be back again😁😁

Spontaneous visit last night. Ordered of the set menu, great food and service. I'll be back!

Love, love, love. The food, the atmosphere and service are always great. A wide range of dishes that cater to different tastes. Honestly, I would try everything.

First visit last night after it came up on Google with good reviews. The restaurant is small, clean, smart and well presented. Small issue with the service when a glass of wine was ordered and the wrong one delivered, which on challenge it turned out they didn't have what was ordered so tried to just serve something else, this annoyed my wife as they could have just said they didn't have it in the first place - no problem. Dinner plates arrived well presented with salad, but the salad was drenched in a dressing that was of very specific taste, I would urge them to stop doing this. Onto the food which on the whole was excellent. Chicken tikka was cooked to absolute perfection and in the style associated with more traditional Indian restaurants you'd find in Leicester. Rice and bread was good although the Naan needed a minute under the grill in my opinion. Overall a very good meal, I would go as far as to say this is the best Indian restaurant for food across Blaby district.

Telephoned our first order through having read the reviews and boy we were not disappointed. Order was packed into a sturdy cardboard box and covered with foil to keep it hot. Got it home and tucked into our starter's of shami kebab and onion bahji both were tasty and very enjoyable. Onto our mains of a lamb madras and a chicken korma with rice and naan breads., the lamb madras was a beautiful flavour with just the right heat, without an lingering burning flavour, the korma was creamy and the chicken was tender and juicy. Both the keema and peshwari naans were full and flavourful. We will be back and are happy that we have found our go to indian, having tried others closer to home and found them lacking.

Really lovely food, cooked well and served promptly. Staff are incredibly polite, Abu is a great server and attentive. Very much enjoyed the complimentary nightcap!

We popped in tonight, never been before and the food and service was excellent We will definitely go again.

Best takeaway ever ! Won’t go anywhere else it’s perfect every time and delicious

Go for a curry with my uncle once a month or so. We usually go the one down the road as this one had a bad reputation under the old name, but this one had changed owners recently and someone from the local gave a strong recommended for it, so we gave it a go Thursday night. Absolutely blows the other place out of the water - the portions are good, but more importantly everything tasted incredible. The chicken in the curry itself was so juicy, and the Keema nan was chocked full of proper thick red keema meat throughout. Even the Poppadoms and Dips were so fresh and tasty. the atmosphere was nice too as it was intimate and quite busy, especially for a Thursday night. Couldn’t recommend enough - only thing we’d change is putting in a lift to the toilets upstairs 😂 But in all seriousness the owner H seemed like a great guy, really humble and friendly and good company. He just wants to serve great quality food, and he smashes it. 5/5, will be back again soon!

Have a fabulous meal here tonight. Food was so fresh and tasted great. Excellent service. The staff are very professional.

We rarely order food deliveries from restaurants but received a leaflet drop a couple of weeks ago and due to a very busy day decided to order a meal. It was very, very good. We ordered another this evening. It was exceptional. The popadoms were so light and melt-in-your-mouth. I had a Lamb Rogan Jhosh and my wife had Garlic Chilli Prawns. On the first occasion we had ordered Lamb Saghwala and Prawn Saghwala. In both cases we were blown away by the taste, presentation (the tomatoes were clearly fresh and the taste and colour were vibrant), sensible portioning and the amount of lamb/prawns in the meal. This restaurant seems to be setting a new benchmark.

We enjoyed everything from the moment we walked in.....delicious food and service was outstanding. Thank you bearded guy for looking after us and the owner for complimentary shots. We will definitely come back.

We had a take away delivered last night. It was the first time we had tried this restaurant. It was amazing. Thank you. We will definitely come again.

I went for a meal with some friends and really enjoyed it. The staff are always so chatty and friendly. I was so happy when Zaika relaunched as they are my favourite Indian takeaway. The food didn't disappoint! Nicely presented, good portion size, with the set menu being really good value for money. The fish pakora starter was amazing. Would highly recommend!

Great food good atmosphere and our waiter faz was outstanding

Beautiful food and Faz our waiter was amazing so was all the other staff, and atmosphere was amazing

We really like the food / takeaway. Each time we’ve ordered from here, whether for a quite meal for two or if we’ve had family and friends round, everyone has been happy with their meal. The staff are always professional and friendly 👍

Had a fantastic meal food was delicious service was excellent 👌 nothing is too much trouble for the staff a great friendly restaurant very welcoming and lovely atmosphere

Very good food service and atmosfere . Good value too 👍👍👍 well done guys. Someone designed and painted it nicely

Had our first takeaway tonight from Zaika and overall was really nice and tasty, from the pickles, starters and main, it was all great and will def order again - thank you

Lovely food will certainly be eating there again made to feel very welcome 🥰

Just had a takeaway meal it was bledy lovely!

Great Curry, great hospitality. The food speaks for itself but the care and attention given by the hosts makes a complete 5 star service for us.

Visited Zaika for an evening dinner with family last weekend. The waiters couldn’t do enough for you, manager/owner very accommodating and really welcoming, very chatty and friendly. The food was perfect! Really hot, full of flavour. Would eat here again for sure, highly recommend.

This is very best food and staff we have encountered at any previous Indian restaurant. An absolute pleasure to dine there. It was our first time there and we would certainly go out of our way to go back. Excellent Peter

Beautiful meal lovely service definitely be returning , keep up the good work guys

honestly the best curry i've had in a long time. lovely restaurant. staff very attentive. no complaints. perfect experience. will definitely be returning

Had a lovely meal there last night. Went to see if it was as good as before it closed for a whole and wasn't disappointed and reasonably priced for the quality you got

So good to find a decent restaurant in blaby and close to home. Staff are very nice including the manager H and waitress Rajini. The suggestions H provided were good and they can adapt the dishes if needed. Good food at a very good price! We will be back very soon.

Very tasty with a lot of meat within the dish

Great food friendly staff highly recommend

Amazing food and service. Prices REALLY reasonable for Sunday evening. When the staff makes you feel important and cared for, you know you'll have to come back. Definitely a place to revisit. Thank you Hasan for the AWESOME experience 🙏 ☺ From Dana and Mateus

Great food, friendly staff and a good price. Perfect night with friends 👍

Had a lovely spontaneous meal tonight! Wouldn’t usually go for an Indian dine in meal as we usually would have a take away but it was delish and the staff super friendly! Love the water wall and the complementary brand and baileys was a lovely touch. Can’t wait to return… thank you

Sucked in by the deal of 4 courses for 13.95. But it's not a deal if your portion sizes are around half the normal size, the starter was the smallest I've ever seen. You have to be careful with such tactics, or you'll end up losing more custom than such deals are designed to gain.

Great food and service as usual. Best indian food in the area.

Had takeaway from here a couple of times now and it is really good. Delivery was excellent through just eat and food quality was very very good and better than other restaurants ( such as our local one Spice 45) Would highly recommend

As a group we have eaten here several times over the past 6 months trying an array of meals off of the menu. Each time the food has been amazing and the service has been fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Excellent meal, staff were so polite and accommodating. Quick and knowledgeable about the menu. The restaurant was clean, couldn't ask for more!

Fabulous food , with a great atmosphere . Staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. favourite venue for a curry .

Poor service, excessively slow food ultimately meaning cold kids waiting 2hrs for food. Charging £2.50 for half a coke poured out of 1.5ltr bottles. Would not advertise to my worst enemy

This was definitely one of the best curries we have eaten and we have eaten a LOT! The standard of food was excellent and the staff were really friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend 🙂

Order time supposed to be 45 min, turned up 1 hour 25 minutes after calling the restaurant twice to see where the food was they said don't know driver left ages ago. Food turned up Cold and soggy. 0.3 miles from restaurant. Called to complain and got attitude. Shocking don't bother go somewhere else.

Lee Cattermole is the most underrated footballer of this generation.

Worst cold Indian meal I have ever had. Rubber poperDom’s cold chips and cold food.Awful food. If u can’t supply the food in good quality don’t bother

Food was amazing as was the service very attentive, 100% will be back

Another lovely meal delivered last night ,

Just finished and my god. Amazing. Will deffo be ordering from here again in future. Fast delivery too.

Beautiful place, delicious food and amazing service! Thank You !

Lovely food and fab service. Thank you guys at Zaika for a lovely meal. We will be back soon.

Since the re naming of the old chamelee we have used Zaika 4 times now and every time it's been spot on.

Another lovely meal, delivered early and hot. Great flavours.

Just had our first takeaway. Order delivered in 30 minutes. Food hot and very tasty Will definitely use again. Recommended

Just had our first delivery which was hot plentiful and tasty , looking forward to a night out for a meal when possible . Would definitely order again .

First time ordering from here and it was brilliant. Food was fantastic and customer service was brilliant. Thank you for a great experience. Would definitely go again soon

I would normally like to write a long in detail reveiw but i only have one word for this place, FOUL, It all went in the bin, If you sent this stuff to starving childeren in africa they would send it back

40 mins late, the naan was just a pizza base over cooked, the rice was just boiled rice with a few mushrooms thrown in and I didn't even open the curry. Straight in the bin 😡

Well delivery took 2 hours then the driver got lost and asked me to walk to a main road as he couldn't be bothered to find the address, when the food arrived although nice half the order was missing, I would have rang to complain but by the time the driver had found the address again it would be the next day, unfortunately won't be using again

Received the wrong order at the wrong time

Great Pizza and I'm sure the kebabs just keep getting bigger, delicious too

Another couple of great curry from Rasoi, just the right amount of spice and heat in the madras for me and my wife loved the lamb bhuna, Got 20% off too when I ordered through Just Eat

Ordered two kebab wraps they weren't wrapped, they were stone cold, didn't have much taste and the garlic sauce didn't really taste of garlic. I would NEVER use this takeaway again.

First meal since they changed the chef and I must say it was a first class indian meal. Loads of chicken and just the right amount of spice. will be ordering again

Starters were ok. Dansak did not taste like any Dansak I had ever had previously and there was very little sauce or meat either ! The Naans were a disgrace - in my opinion they were more like a pizza base and were wholly inedible. My son's Chicken Tikka Massala was nice according to him. In addition the delivery was over 30 minutes late. All in all NOT recommended & I won't be ordering from there again !
