Zahra Restaurant & Café — Restaurant in Delhi

Third class service. Whenever you order something, you shall be informed that it is not available. You get to eat only that what the restaurant wants you to eat. Thrice I had to leave without eating because you cannot eat the food of your choice specially when it is afternoon. They are more interested in the business at night. They do not even keep the ingredients of the recipe ready so that a person can have the food of his choice. 29/3/2022 Today I visited Zahra again in the hope that I might get something other than their usual stuff of biryani, shami kabab and chicken tikka.To my surprise there were some more dishes available. As I was waiting for my fare I eavesdropped the conversation between the staff and the guests. Every time, the guests asked for something, the answer was sir Khatm ho gaya hai.This happened 6-7 times. I had a hearty laugh. I thought I should ask them OWNER hain and I expected them to say Madam Khatm ho gaye. 😂This is state of Zahra restaurant.16/6/2022

Hum nahin sudherenge- should be the tagline of Zahra Restaurant, Tikona Park. I visited the restaurant again today. Same reply that only Biryani is available. Then a second person came and asked for order. I raised the issue of only available item that is the biryani. He said that shami kabab and chicken lollipop is available besides the biryani. But no roti. As I was hungry, I ordered all the three items. But same old story that you will get to eat only those foods that the restaurant wants you to eat. The dishes have become too costly. They are overcharging their customers. One dish of malai tikka gravy...

This has been the worst experience I’ve ever had with Zahra Restaurant, and it’s not just a one-off occurrence. Every time I’ve ordered from them, they’ve managed to disappoint in one way or another. This time, I ordered biryani late in the evening, but when I say “late night,” I mean around 10 PM—not some ridiculously late hour like 1 AM or 2 AM, as people might expect when ordering food at odd times.

When the food arrived, I was shocked to find that the rice was burned. On top of that, the portion of biryani I received had just one small piece of chicken with a single bone in it. It’s clear that they did not put much thought or care into preparing the dish.

I had also asked for cutlery to be included with the order, as is standard, but they ignored this basic customer request completely. It’s frustrating when a restaurant doesn’t pay attention to the details or make an effort to meet customer expectations.

At the very least, I expected them to serve properly cooked rice and a decent portion of food, not burned rice, overcooked chicken, and a single bone. Offering a half-portion should still mean giving enough quality and care in the food.

This was, without a doubt, the worst experience I’ve had with Zahra, and based on this repeated pattern of poor service, I strongly urge others to avoid ordering from...

It is one of the food joint nearest to Jamia Millia Islamia University which serves yummy non veg delicacies specially biryani, Zahra Special Chicken, Mutton Korma, Lahori Mutton and Rogan Josh must try if u are in South Delhi. Zahra Special Chicken is Muglai style chicken gravy that is rich, thick, creamy, and mildly spicy. This chicken curry is so aromatic and tastes absolutely amazing. Eat with Khamiri Roti or Naan. The place was packed with locals, student and some visitors all with one thing on their mind to taste the food. The menu is very elaborate and affordable price. The food we ordered was good, tasty and comes in good quantities. Seating you are expected to seat yourselves where you fancy. Its Hyderabadi Dum Biryani and Tandoori Chai famous for its home like hospitality and food at a price reasonable enough for a student dominant area. it also serves frozen ice cream rolls, waffles along with decent snacks and beverages.Nearest Metro station is Jamia millia islamia metro station.
