Absolutely fantastic. I’ve had a lot of Indian cuisine in my life and this is by far the best I’ve had in the USA. The butter chicken biryani was excellent and our server Deepesh was incredibly welcoming and kind. I 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone in (or far from) the area. As you can see from the photos, we could not stop eating and there was enough to take home. 100/10

Deepesh & Sagar were fabulous! They were kind, efficient & attentive! Deepesh was very accommodating, & Sagar was my server and very kind & talled me into eating something different. They have a wonderful Restaurant! Food was so good & Sagar told me to try a new item that I hadn’t had before and I tried Chicken Korma and the Rajwadi Samosa! Loved both of them, I had a Hazy IPA & Kingfisher beers & the Cheese Garlic Naan bread! I will be back, what a great restaurant. Only bad thing is that I didn’t realize that they were closed from 3 -4:30, And I felt so bad when I asked how long they were open, & he was kind and told me not to hurry, but I felt bad & got a togo container & bailed. DEEPESH also let me try a very small amount of one of their milk desserts that I had never had… so yummy! Now I know for next time!
So if you are in the area, give them a shout out!

We were a party of two and both enjoyed the Butter Chicken and the Amritsari Khadai Chicken dish. The meals were aromatic and revealed the complexity of the spices and ingredients. The service by Deepesh and Sagar was prompt, and outstanding. We appreciate being so close to the chefs, who prepared the meals just behind our backs. The seating was very comfortable and the ambiance warm, not intrusive. We will definitely come back to share dinner with friends.

Did a pickup order this evening, and already looking forward to dinning in sometime soon. Food was flavorful, great level of spicy (they ask what level of heat we wanted), and absolutely delicious. The waiter suggested a different appetizer selection as the original appetizer I was considering wouldn’t travel as well as others- better suited for in house service. Very helpful. Although we did a takeaway, the restaurant looked very comfortable and well decorated. I highly suggest giving Zayka a try- you will not be disappointed & I was thoroughly impressed.

Had an incredible lunch here! The Paneer Tikka Masala was rich and flavorful, and the Lunchbox is a fantastic, well-portioned deal. A huge shoutout to Suraj—he provided amazing service and made the whole experience seamless. Definitely coming back!

We had a great time dining in at Zayka! Our server, Deepesh, did a great job providing excellent service and ensuring our food came out well. He was very pleasant and friendly to interact with, he even invited us back for their special tiffin lunch menu! The food was also very authentic and delicious, highly recommend if you are craving some authentic, comfort indian food!

Deepesh took such good care of us. We got a complimentary cracker and chutney wagon that was so delicious! The menu labels for Gluten-Free are not super accurate it seemed, but Deepesh got the chef to accommodate our celiac needs with a separate deep fryer. The mango shrimp was made GF for us and it was amazing! Bonus trumpet player outside was a nice touch when they opened the door for a bit to hear him play. Also, the beverages and cocktails were incredible! Highly recommend, plus they’re open for the holidays.

I visited this restaurant, and I must say, the experience was delightful from start to finish. The ambience is incredibly pleasant—warm, inviting, and just the right atmosphere for a relaxing meal. The service was attentive and friendly, with staff making sure everything was perfect throughout our visit.
As for the food, the chicken was absolutely fantastic—tender and juicy. The drinks were equally impressive, especially the Tamarind Ginger Margarita, which had a unique and refreshing kick, and the Tarbooj Twist, a perfect combination of sweet and tangy. For the main course I had a pressure cooker goat curry which was delicious.

Great experience at Zayka. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. The Butter Chicken was rich and creamy, with just the right amount of spice, and the Naan was soft, fluffy, and perfect for soaking up every last bit of sauce. Drinks are super delicious and refreshing and very pleasing to the eye.
What really stood out was the attention to detail and authenticity in every dish. You can tell the chefs put a lot of care and passion into their cooking. The staff were friendly and attentive.
Overall, Zayka Indian Grill & Bar, is a fantastic new addition to Chapel Hill. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine in a welcoming and stylish setting, this is it. I can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu!
Highly recommend!
