    Don't let the plain surroundings fool you. The food is delicious and authentic Pakistani. Try the grilled chicken served in a thali-style dish. Plus the service is genuine, caring and supper quick.

    Sunday brunch includes: sheermal, paratha, omelette w/ shami kabob, and nihari. Worth it if you can stand the crowd

    Great mix of home cooked feel and classic North Indian Mughlai food. All your chicken tandooris and chicken tikka masalas, but with a touch of home

    This location has no indoor seating! There are small tables and a couple benches outside, plan to order online and pickup. Food is amazingly delicious and flavorful!

    Get the chicken boti meal β€œArik’s way” which is replacing the lentils/daal with extra tikka masala sauce. They don’t have garlic naan here

    This is a very tiny place. Try to go in at odd times to easily find a table. The free tea is really good.

    This was my first trip to California. I went to Zareen with my friend who recently moved from Midwest to California. Food was OK.It was expensive and portion you get is very small for the price.
