All the dishes we got were tasty. I had the salmon, which is not always on the menu at Indian restaurants. The service was efficient. The decor is simple, nothing fancy. Overall, this is a great spot for good food.

Coming from London I've been struggling to find good Indian restaurants in the Boston area. Zaika is the only one I have been to that I've wanted to go back to - even though it's a bit of a drive for me it's now the only Indian restaurant I frequently visit. The buffet has a wide selection and is good value.

I love well prepared Indian food, of which there are many different preparations. I went with an old standby, chicken Tikka Masala, garlic naan and rice. I have eaten these dishes many, many times. The naan and rice were excellent, well prepared. Unfortunately, the chicken masala was a disappointment. Traditionally the chicken is prepared in a tandoor, fundamentally tandoori chicken. In this case, the chicken was tasteless cubes, obviously not prepared in a tandoor, but was by prepared by a short cut that robbed it of the essence of the dish. The chicken did also not take on the taste of the masala. I thought the masala itself lacked the richness and creaminess I have come to enjoy. Is this just a local/regional variant, that does not mesh with my taste? Perhaps. Nonetheless I will probably not return. On another note the staff was friendly and attentive. Parking was on-street only.

Nice spot that seemed popular - service was a bit slow since it seemed our server was the only one working. The Indian food here feels a little lighter (less rich) to me than other places, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I expected my korma to be creamier but it seemed more watery. The spice level also wasn't too bad - medium had a very light heat and spicy just technically met the spicy threshold. The dishes also come with rice. The vegetable samosa was good with flavorful filling. The masala tea was really spiced and creamy but not sweetened (still good!). We also enjoyed the mango lassi, which has a more prominent mango taste (rather than yogurt) and was thinner than some lassis we've had. The gulab jamun only came with 2 pieces which was surprising. It was fine but I'd pass next time for the cost.Would like to come back to try the dosa and biryani.

This is a cozy, small Indian restaurant lined along Woburn downtown. My friend and I went during dinner time and it was on the quieter side. The server was nice and the service was great. We ordered Lamb Samosas, Naan, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Paneer Saagwala. I've never had lamb samosas before and this was delicious. Their samosas were huge! The samosa filling was seasoned really well and was loaded. The exterior had the perfect crunch to it. The curries were creamy and filled with so much flavor. The naan was delicious and soft with a slight crispiness to it. Overall, I really enjoyed the food. It was delicious and I'd definitely come back again if I am visiting the area.

I really like the food here. I used to work downtown and at the time I would go for the lunch buffet that was such a great value. Now I ordered from a delivery service and for what I received I think it was very expensive. The restaurant itself is a much better option. They have nice staff and the portions are better it seems. It is a nice cozy atmosphere.

Sorry ordered from Uber eats. Don't come after me. LOLI got bus Maddie Rice onion nun and chicken tika masala. Nothing extraordinary. But just routine stuff.Boy was I surprised! The onion non was really good. It was cheaper than I expected, but I liked it.My chicken tikka masala was spot on as well. It could've been a little spicier. But I'm still OK with it. And of course, the race was fab.
