Do like giving low ratings to anyone, but worse experience in a long time. Start with Chicken Tikka Philly sandwich, the meat looked unappetizing cheese was not melted. Chana masala was less masala more like boiled chana with lack of seasoning, then naan is over cooked & crunchy. Chicken tikka boti also lacked seasoning & dry. Seating was in front of door by a mess of things, they told us that they had a party in main dining area which is fine, but then that same party started using the area where we were seated, it was fine til they kept bumping into my chair & staff didn’t even care to tell them to leave space for dinners. Kids were not happy, so I didn’t even get a chance to take pictures of the food. Almost forgot about the mango lassi, taste was good, but it was not cold.

Went for the buffet, everything was delicious. Some of the curries were very spicy so heads up lol but so delicious. Very much worth the price. Will be coming back

I had the lunch buffet at Zouq today it was delicious! I loved the daal chawal (yellow lentils and rice pilaf). The chicken tandoori was fresh and achar chicken both full of flavor and zesty spices. The butter naan was piping hot and made the meal even better with the pairing. Best of all this place give your as much free chai tea as you want! The owner provides stellar customer service and works hard to make sure your order is customized to your liking! Highly recommend a visit especially for the great deal on the lunch buffet which is daily from Tuesday through Friday 11:30 to 3:00 pm. I will definitely be coming back for more tasty Pakistani cuisine!
Parking: Huge public free parking in shopping center
Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space and seating for the children
Clean and quiet atmosphere. Relaxed setting where you take a plate and serve yourself, pay at the register when you have had enough. Unlimited ice cold water, sodas in the cooler, plenty of dishes rotate on and off the buffet to try. Delicious chicken and veggies, naan, curry, and all the usual standard Indian and Pakistani fair. I love this restaurant!

Excellent food quality and taste. The owner is amazing and I'm proud to support this family owned small business.
Zouq has become my go-to spot for authentic Pakistani cuisine. The food is exceptional—each dish bursting with rich, traditional flavors that take me right back to Pakistan. Whether you’re craving a perfectly spiced biryani, tender kebabs, or comforting curries, Zouq delivers every time. The portions are generous, the ingredients fresh, and the prices are more than reasonable. It’s rare to find such high-quality, authentic food at such affordable rates. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is always friendly and attentive, making every visit a truly enjoyable experience. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for genuine Pakistani food in Duluth!. Not to forget the exceptionally reasonable and delicious Buffet Lunch M-F.

Yesterday was my first time in this restaurant and I admit that I was seduced by the welcome and the setting. I ordered 1 beef Philadelphia and 1 double Burger...I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the sandwiches which were a real delight. I find it hard to understand that this restaurant is fast enough...good for me because my order was prepared quite quickly. Keep it up and don't change anything! Well done to you!

Disappointing Experience at Zouq Pakistani Restaurant
I drove 42 miles to try Zouq, but unfortunately, it wasn't worth the trip. The food was a letdown, especially the Chicken Karahi, which didn't resemble the dish in appearance or taste. The Chicken Leg Pieces deal (2 for $7) was a total fail. The only redeeming quality was the Garlic Naan, which was flavorful and well-made. However, it wasn't enough to salvage the overall experience. Unless you're in the immediate area, I wouldn't recommend Zouq. For authentic Pakistani cuisine, there are better options elsewhere. *Pros:* - Garlic Naan was delicious *Cons:* - Chicken Karahi was unrecognizable and tasted off - Chicken Leg Pieces were disappointing - Not worth the long drive *Recommendation:* Improve dish authenticity and quality to justify the prices and location.
Had chai and samosas and delicious mithai(sweet).
