TOURIST VISIT ON SATURDAY EVENING MEAL FOR TWO
A slow start from the staff in both taking our order and serving the starter, especially strange as the restaurant was very quiet.
However, our starters were both piping hot and tasty. We had a couple of soft drinks to begin with. We both ordered the Mixed Grill for our main course. This comes with chips or rice. It would be better if they offered a plain naan instead of chips.
The mixed grill is certainly plentiful for meat, chicken and lamb, cooked in Tandoori style.
We chose a tikka naan but couldn't taste anything significant. The salad accompanying the main course was small: a piece of tomato, one slice of cucumber and a few bits of shredded lettuce with a slice of lemon.
We added Saag Aloo (potato and spinach) side order, which was rather soggy but on top of the rice with onions from the sizzling mixed grill, it enhanced the combination of flavours.
We each had a draught pint of Cobra.
£53 between two, which we felt was reasonable.
Food was delicious best king prawn and lamb curry I've had in a long time. Great service definitely will go there again. Definitely an improvement from previous owner.
Takeaway: Best Chicken Tikka Channa Masala we’ve ever had! Tasty, non-greasy m, generous portions of food. Very reasonable price too.
Haltwhistle is very lucky to have such a good quality Indian restaurant, serving authentic and delicious food (as someone who has actually travelled to India and Sri Lanka). Ive been a few times during my stay to visit Hadrian’s Wall and the service has always been polite and friendly. Would definitely recommend for dine in or take away as both are nice options.
This place is a must if you love Indian food. the staff are very good and the food is brilliant and the place is spotless clean. thank you all at Zaki
Alan. Isobel. Just had another meal this time a takeaway tried phoning told to do it online ordered the food told to pick up at 6.33 and would get confirmation email still waiting went 10 minutes early to make sure we where getting food .and it was ready got home 1 minute away chips cold food lovely but communication would have been nice disappointed.
Food is great!! I ordered madras curry and it was one of the best ive tasted, the service was also top notch, will be coming back again, thank you!
Lovely food, decent prices and great portions. We all left fully satisfied! Not a huge drinks selection, but a bit of everything so you won't miss out. Food came very quickly even in a packed restaurant.
Staff were very busy but never forgot about us, very pleasant and helpful!
It's a small restaurant so they're doing their best with Covid restrictions but we didn't feel unsafe and waiters wore gloves and the tables were well spaced for a small room.
If I ever come back to Haltwhistle I would go again!
Lovely meal. Great service and friendly staff. One of the best curries we have tasted in a while
We have used Zaki Indian Restaurant for Takeaway 4 times now, always perfect
Vindeloo fantastic taste, egg pilau rice cooked just right, great taste and Garlic Nan again cooked fresh
Takeaway was piping hot each time
Friendly service
Some of the best Indian takeaways we have ever had ..
Collected our meal from restaurant and enjoyed it at our campsite. We were not disappointed, the meal was top quality and piping hot. We would rate it up there with some of the best meals we have ever tasted.
Quality of food is really excellent. Sauces really full of great herbs, spices, resulting in wonderful flavour. Excellent hygiene rating also. Would always go back.
Have sampled a few Indian takeaways in our time but this one, for sure, is the most tastiest. Certainly puts Haltwhistle on the map. Been a long time since we enjoyed a meal as delicious as this. Great stuff Zaki.
