Delicious.
Edit: been hitting other spots in the area that are closer to me and many have nicer dining rooms (not that this one is bad, it's just a little more fast casual) but I haven't found one with better food. This is definitely my favorite. By a lot. Wish it were closer.

I recently visited Zaika Indian Express, and my experience was disappointing. When I placed my order, I asked for water, and the server (his name sounded like Mahat or Mahr) told me that water is self-service. I accepted that, but soon after, I saw him bring water to another table without asking them to get it themselves. That felt unfair and disrespectful.

I’ve never been to a restaurant where some guests are told to serve themselves while others are waited on. This kind of inconsistent treatment felt discriminatory, and it completely ruined my experience. I hope the management addresses this and ensures all customers are treated equally and respectfully in the future.

I stopped in for a change from fast food and was totally delighted. I ordered chicken biryani for a quick lunch and was delighted at how delicious it was. Cannot wait to go back and try more menu items. It was fresh and just the right amount of spice (medium is what I asked for). Can’t wait to go back and try more items based on their great reviews!!!

I came in exhausted from a long day, asked what they recommended, and ended up with the Lajjatdar and garlic naan. I sat waiting while sipping delicious chai. The first bite of my food was warm, fresh, spicy, and rich. I will be coming back here. Good people, good food, good atmosphere.

I would highly recommend the lamb rogan josh it was really tasty. And the garlic naan was also delicious and soft with loads of butter and garlic topping. The chicken lijjatdar wasn’t that great and I didn’t feel any flavors in it. The service was excellent!

Found this restaurant in Denver during a recent visit. What a pleasant surprise. Its a small joint and is a blend of Nepali and North Indian cuisine.
Ordered Lajjatdar and Rasili lamb at owner’s recommendation.
Great taste and something different.
The staff was great and welcoming. Owner took personal interest in making us feel comfortable.
All in all, great dining experience.

Awesome food! I highly recommend the Chicken Tikki Masala. It was amazing, the sauce was the perfect and the Panir Saak was great. Definitely make sure to stop here if you can!

We ordered takeaway and the chicken korma was really amazing. The naan could have been softer but it may have been that we order takeaway

Went here late last night food was complete trash! The samosas tasted ancient and the chutney smelled like rotten eggs! I’m from the Midwest, and have been eating from various places in little India in Chicago for decades and I’ve never tasted such atrocities! They put lemon pepper on the old samosas I guess to cover the taste which made it taste worst.

I asked for spicy, and that just tasted like rather than adding actual spices and herbs to adjust the heat, they instead just poured hot sauce cause ya can’t taste anything else! Also, if you call with complaints apparently there’s no manager on duty! SMH AND the Roti tasted like cardboard; flavorless, cold and hard as hell! I was going to bring all that bs back and demand a refund but my 4 year old fed it to the dog! Damn shame even a baby knows that wasn’t for human consumption! This place needs to be closed down! That food was certainly old! All of it!

Today was the first time i came in and wasn't sure what to expect. Let me TELL YOU that this food is amazing!!! If there are any negative reviews please take them lightly! My food was HOT and fresh and just the exact spicy that I wanted. (They ask you 1-5 to pick your own spicy!) The garlic Naan was out of this world, my rice was perfect and the Saag with chicken was better than any full service Indian restraunts I have been to here in DENVER!!! Do yourself a favor and stop in! They even let me try the Chai tea! So yummy....10 out of 10 as far as food, service and hospitality! $23 dollars and I had enough for for two whole meals! TOTALLY worth it!
