Zayka Indian Cuisine - Springfield

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. The waiter was welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious. I ordered a lamb and spinach dish, while my wife opted for the mixed grill. The lassi drinks were exceptionally tasty, as were the pistachio ice cream and cheese bread.

We have dined at this restaurant several times this year and last year, both during lunch and dinner. The food is excellent! Truly amazing. Indian cuisine is my favorite, and I have tried 10-15 different dishes, all of which were simply AMAZING. The lamb, chicken, and fish are always tender and juicy, and the Bhindi Masala is perfection. Occasionally, the naan may be a bit stale during lunch, and there may be a wait during peak hours, so I recommend coming after 8 PM. However, this does not lower my rating at all. I would highly recommend this restaurant to all my friends. We usually have the same waiter, who always makes us feel welcome with his friendly jokes and willingness to chat. The staff is all friendly. I also enjoy Taj Mahal on Republic Road, but Zayka is much better haha. Their vegetarian options are also great: I usually get Bhindi Masala with extra Tikka Masala sauce. One criticism I have is that the side salad greens are boring. White lettuce is not very flavorful, so replacing it with spinach or other greens would greatly improve the salad. Thank you! We will definitely return when we visit Springfield again.

Wow, this restaurant is incredible! It was my first time trying authentic Indian cuisine and now it's my favorite. Mathew provided excellent service, he was quick and very friendly. He recommended dishes and ensured that our experience was top-notch. I would give this place a 10/10 rating.

Good Indian option if you are in Springfield. Everyone recommended me this place and i liked it so much that I had this two nights in a row. Food was flavorful and not spicy.

Pretty dang good food. It has a lunch buffet. Meals are delivered family style. I miss the old Gem of India but this place serves very similar food. The staff was very friendly. Price is reasonable. An entre that easily feeds 2 with an appetizer willcost around $25. I love Indian food. The paneer is great.
