The
name Zaika translates quite literally as sophisticated flavours
and this is the ethos behind the innovative menu. With an emphasis
on refined yet creative Indian cuisine, the menu incorporates both
traditional classic favourites and original new dishes that apply
eastern flavours with a western twist.
Acclaimed favourites include Indian Home Smoked Salmon, Lamb Rogan
Josh and Chocolate Silk, a dish that has been greatly imitated by
other establishments across the Capital.
Located at the heart of Kensington in a prominent position opposite
Hyde Park, the grand building that Zaika occupies was formerly a
bank and has retained many original architectural features including
the carved high ceilings and double height windows. The sumptuous
interior lends itself to the rich vibrancy of India during the colonial
era incorporating a palette of rich colours; ruby, green gold, crimson
and purple.
The main restaurant seats 82 and is available for private entertaining
by appointment whilst the Bedouin style cocktail bar can host private
drinks parties for up to 25 guests.
Since opening its doors Zaika has received a string of industry
accolades including the first Indian restaurant obtaining a Michelin
star and the Best Indian Restaurant in the London Restaurant Awards.
