Chicken tikki marsala is absolutely AMAZING! Full of flavor, and quickly becoming one of our favorite dishes. The naan bread is fantastic, warm,fluffy,airy, baked to perfection. We always get extra! The portions are quite large, as 1 order is suitable for my wife and I. We’ve always done take out, but the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and I always see people seated. Service is fast and friendly, they are definitely starting to recognize me, how often we order. Prices are very fair, especially for the home-cooked style meal you get everytime. We went from never trying authentic Indian food,to truly loving it.

Excellent service and wonderful staff! A special thank you to the lady who went out of her way to help us during our setup.for a non-profit iftar dinner yesterday. Despite being busy with other customers, they took the time to assist us with a smile. Truly outstanding customer service — highly recommend!

Zaiqa BBQ & Karahi in Germantown completely exceeded my expectations! If you’re looking for bold, authentic Pakistani flavors, this is the place to go.
I ordered the Lamb Biryani and Chicken Karahi, and both dishes were absolutely phenomenal. The lamb biryani was bursting with flavor—tender, perfectly cooked lamb layered with fragrant basmati rice and just the right amount of spice. Every bite had a beautiful balance of heat and aroma, and it was clearly made with care and traditional technique.
The Chicken Karahi was just as impressive—served sizzling in a rich tomato-based gravy with ginger, green chilies, and freshly ground spices. The chicken was cooked perfectly, soaking in all the flavors from the karahi. It had that deep, smoky, slow-cooked taste that you only get in authentic Pakistani cooking.
The portions were generous, the naan was fresh and pillowy, and the service was friendly and attentive. The whole experience—from the food to the warm ambiance—was outstanding.
If you’re a fan of South Asian cuisine, Zaiqa’s Lamb Biryani and Chicken Karahi are absolute must-haves. This is comfort food with serious flavor—definitely one of Germantown’s best-kept secrets!

I ordered via uber delivery for chicken tikka and lamb chops. Taste is good and portion size is good. The lamb was tough and should be tender so that older adults can chew easily. I will be ordering and visiting this place soon. Overall taste is good.

Lovely pick by chance, we were travelling from PA to Vergina and got this great Halal food Resturant. Lunch buffet was amazing. I love the staff they were great help to made of our choice of food. They staff is really corporative-they accommodated us in late working hours. Highly recommend to try. Good luck guys

Food is really good and authentic. Biryani is probably the best in the area. Service can be improved. Buffet was okay, again service wasn’t that great.

The chicken pasta is horrible , yellow colour, bitter aftertaste , weird cheddar cheese bland taste. Pathetic. Kraft Mac n cheese tastes way better !
The papdi chat had no salt , no chaat masala , no chutney .
Chicken strips for kids was soaked in oil , with weird smell.
Manchurian was good ,
Paaye was just okay , naans were the only good thing

We came here on a weekend to try out the buffet. Small selection but good selection. Butter chicken and goat were my two favorite for sure and everything was also delicious. Mango lassi was sour but interesting. The owner or server wasn’t really personable but ok. I wish I could give it a 5 star but the only issue was that I wish I knew that I was automatically charge a service fee of 18 percent and then when I paid with the tablet I gave them 15 percent on top of 18%. Be sure to skip on tip or ask for receipt printout before paying!

We showed up at Zaiqa in Gaithersburg with a party of 11 after calling ahead, only to be told upon arrival that the chef had a catering order and told the front desk either they should cook the food or we should be asked to leave. And that’s exactly what happened — we were told to leave.
I’ve never experienced such unprofessional and disrespectful customer service. If a restaurant cannot honor a reservation or accommodate guests they confirmed, they should say so upfront instead of wasting people’s time and embarrassing them at the door.
I will not be recommending this place to anyone. Truly a horrible way to treat customers.
