ZAIKA INDIAN CUISINE – Indian
On NE 123rd Street in North Miami, a North Indian dining room whose chefs came up through the Taj hotels in India — and the range shows it, from Zaika malabari chicken and lamb vindaloo to a deep vegetarian side of paneer tikka masala and aloo gobi. Tandoori chicken and chicken tikka masala carry the regulars. Portions land generously, the lunch deal fills the room by noon, and service moves fast enough to keep up. Long-time customers keep circling the same word: consistent. Come hungry, and come early.
