We tried the chicken tikka and lamb karahi, and absolutely loved both dishes. The chicken tikka was juicy, perfectly tender, and full of flavor. The lamb karahi had an amazing, authentic taste that truly stood out. Will definitely come again!

Raj was an amazing server! She warmly introduced us to a variety of Indian and Pakistani street food, and every single dish she recommended was fantastic. We truly enjoyed everything we ordered: Mutton Karahi Kali Mirch, Chicken Malai Boti and Samosa Chaat
Personally, I loved the Samosa Chaat the most. It was refreshing, lightly spicy, and incredibly appetizing. I actually didnβt have much of an appetite when we arrived, but this dish completely woke up my taste buds and made me excited to eat again.
Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience with great food and excellent service. Highly recommended! I will definitely bring my family here to try it when they visit from overseas. Lastly, a big thank you to the chef for an amazing dinner β we loved every dish.

I Love Food and I know Food.
Hi guys today I had the opportunity to come here for dinner with a friend. I've been here before as well, but haven't reviewed it until today.
I must say the ambiance and vibe of the restaurant is really warm and nice. Staff at the restaurant has always been nice including today. The girl who was serving us today (Murshida) was very polite and had great customer service skills even the manager present at the restaurant had great ethics and customer service skills.
In terms with food we ordered there Ziyka Supreme platter, lamb karahi, chicken shinwari and Naan.
Well I must say that all the items in the platter tasted amazing. However the size of chicken kebab & lamb kebab was on a smaller side as compared to my earlier visit. I hope they will make a note of it and will improve the size.
For the Mains lamb karahi and chicken shinwari both were delicious. We asked for Naans to be crispy but they came out warm and soggy. When I pointed it out to the staff they were prompt to replace them with fresh and crispy Naan and the manager made sure we got them without waiting for long. So full marks to the staff and food.
If you live in or around Carlton or Melbourne CBD, you should definitely come here and try their food. π

I honestly regret going here for a birthday dinner.
The vegetarian food was genuinely terrible. The staff member taking our order was cold, unfriendly and not welcoming at all. By the end, they were literally trying to bribe us with gulab jamuns in exchange for a Google review which says a lot.
The malai kofta was the worst Iβve ever had. I donβt understand how you can mess it up this badly completely tasteless, and the kofta itself was basically just a boiled potato. The paneer curry? Barely any flavour in it. Just disappointing.
I wish we had chosen anywhere else. Truly regret going there

Ziyaka Restaurant is an amazing place to enjoy delicious food and great service. The dishes are full of flavor, beautifully prepared, and served fresh every time. The menu has a good variety, and everything Iβve tried so far has been outstanding. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel very welcome. The restaurant itself has a clean, comfortable, and inviting atmosphere, perfect for both family meals and casual dining. Prices are fair for the quality and portion sizes, making it excellent value. Overall, Ziyaka Restaurant delivers a wonderful dining experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for tasty food and great service.
