About Zareen's Palo Alto

Zareen's Palo Alto is a lively restaurant on a busy street, known for its friendly atmosphere and flavorful Indian/Pakistani cuisine. The spacious place offers both indoor and outdoor seating, with customers placing orders at the counter and displaying a number for server reference. Popular dishes include the Boti Kabab, which is best enjoyed with chicken tikka sauce, and the garlic naan, which is a must-try. Pakistani-style Samosas filled with lightly spiced chicken mince are a tasty appetizer. The Chapli Kabab is a standout—juicy, perfectly spiced, and cooked to perfection, often paired with their soft, fluffy plain naan. The Lamb Korma is delicious, and the Chicken Tikka Thali is highly recommended, especially with the tender, creamy chicken tikka and flavorful sides like lentil soup and vegetable lentil salad. The restaurant is very popular, especially around lunch, and gets packed, but the service remains friendly and efficient. Food is served quickly, even during busy hours, and seating is available both indoors and outdoors, with umbrellas for shade. Parking is convenient with nearby garages. Although the chai received mixed reviews, the overall experience and food are highly praised, making Zareen's Palo Alto a favorite spot for casual yet flavorful dining. Standout dishes include the Halwa Puri, Silver Spoon Kabab roll, Chicken Boti Sizzler, and Omelet Kabab Paratha. Despite its popularity, the restaurant offers good value for money and has built a loyal customer base.
