We ordered 3 kg Chicken Dum Biryani and were more than satisfied with the Quantity & Quality. The biryani was not too spicy, light & very tasty. Will continue to order from Zaika Biryani !!

Extremely pleased with "the" mutton dum biryani that we ordered for our 20+ guests! "The" is in inverted comas because, I rate this mughlai biryani amongst the finest, if not the finest I have had and without modesty, I can say I have had umpteen biryanis since my childhood (I am 73) including the famed, Jaffer bhai Delhi Darbar's. There are of course various types of Biryanis but this Zaika's biryani I can say without hesitation is an epitome of a good mutton dum biryani. Not only the taste and aroma was good but the mutton cooked to perfection! I highly recommend this biryani!

This is my fifth time ordering Biryani, and I've tried nearly 4–5 different varieties including Chicken Biryani, Chicken Dum Biryani, Paneer Tikka Biryani, and Veg Biryani. Every single one has been absolutely delicious!

Never took the time out to appreciate Zaika’s Biryani as we are a regular customer. Ordered Baneer Tikka Biryani, one of the most tastiest Biryani they make. I would urge everyone to taste Biryani for once. Courtesy Sufiyan bhai

I am a die hard fan of any kind of Biryanis and have had the fortune of enjoying it across the country. I have also tried it from multiple khansamas in Thane. I heard of Zaika Biryaniwala and ordered Chicken Angara biryani. It was smoky as desired, brilliant in presentation and absolutely delicious. My family enjoyed it too. I have no hesitation in recommending Zaika Biryaniwala to anybody who cares for authentic biryani.

I ordered the Chicken Tikka Biryani from these guys, and trust me—it was absolutely delicious and full of flavor! Hands down, one of the best biryanis I’ve ever had. Rich, perfectly spiced, and incredibly satisfying. If you're thinking about trying them, don’t even hesitate—just go for it!!!
