Wathiq A.

Zareen’s has got to be a top 5 restaurant in the Bay Area and might be the best Indian food I’ve ever had. Not only is it extremely consistent, but every dish is unique and extremely flavorful. I highly suggest going with a group of friends and ordering a la carte. My favorite items to order have to be the Chicken Tikka Masala, Chapli Kabob, Madrasa Fries, Garlic Naan, Jalapeño Cheese Naan, and everyone has to get a Mango Lassi to drink with the meal and grab some Chai after!

A great place to grab some good Indian/Pakistani food. Really crowded during the weekends. They have limited indoor seating but has a decent outdoor space. The food was delicious and I truly enjoyed it. You should definitely try it if you are in the area!

Zareen's is best in business when it comes to food taste & quality consistency. I could say that as It's been a goto place for me for last 6-7 years now. I haven't encountered any off day here compared to other restaurants around SF Bay Area. I would highly recommend it. Also, It's serves HALAL meat. It's always busy and yet very quick with service. Everything is so good. It's hard to tell which one is better over the other. You better try everything and pick favorites for yourself. My few favorites: Chicken Memoni Samosa Sabri Beef Nihari (available only on Saturday/Sunday) Chicken Biryani (available only on Friday) Chicken Tikka Masala (Available everyday) Chicken Tikka Masala tastes better with butter naan. Sabri Beef Nihari tastes better with sesame naan. Plenty free public parking options around. Parking: Plenty street parking and also multiple free public parking lot options nearby.
