Bollywood Zaika

I ordered 2 dishes - Bhelpuri and Chicken curry + lentil (curry) over rice. Bhelpuri was alright - they could’ve used different type of puffed rice that soaks the sauces well. The boneless chicken curry had white & red meat mixed and it didn’t give me the comfort of quality food. Chicken curries were kept on slow heat and maybe was kept for long thus hardening the meat. Overall, I would rate it 2 star for the food quality. I must say the service and ambience was good.

The menu has a good selection of snacks and main dishes. They cater for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike with some vegan dishes. The currys are pre-prepared and kept in the counter. The staff were friendly when I placed my order to eat in, however it appears that they get far more take-out orders. I ordered the methi paneer and 2 x parantha. I was given my food in a take out container and had to find my own cutlery. The parantha was freshly made and delicious and the paneer was hot and well flavoured. My only criticism would be that when dining-in, the food could have been served in a tray and cutlery provided with a bit more restaurant service. Nonetheless, the food was good 👍

This is a great family run restaurant in super convenient central location. The service is fast but the food is so flavorful and made with love. The chef was happy to explain all the different dishes and flavors.. so don't worry if you are not super familiar with Indian food as this restaurant is very approachable. They were offering two vegetarian dishes one spinach and one eggplant and both were excellent. Quick serve with great slow food is a perfect combination for the fast paced health conscious lifestyle in the South Redondo / Hermosa Beach area. If you have not tried this restaurant or think you don't like Indian food please stop in and chat with the proprietor.. do yourself a favor and try it.. outstanding food and service at a very fair price. Bollywood Zaika is a fast, flavorful, welcome option in King Harbor Plaza.. between PCH and Catalina right by the post office.

I wanted to like this place, but it’s about as mediocre and bland as Indian food can get. Every dish was small in portion, lacking any kick and almost too sweet, like it’s been modified for the American palate. I understand why they might do this, given it’s in Redondo Beach, but it just doesn’t hit the mark for true Indian flavors. The one upside is the friendly staff and fast service. The interior has more of a food court vibe; you order first and can eat inside, but it’s definitely geared more toward a to-go experience. Sorry, but I wouldn’t recommend it, and I won’t be returning.

What a great find! We stopped by for lunch and were very happy with everything we ordered! Everything was delicious! The service was great and the place is very clean! We will definitely be back soon!

I was in the Redondo Beach neighborhood so figured I would try out this place. First and foremost the host of this place were attentive and very helpful. They asked if I needed help picking from the menu and made a few suggestions. I figured I was pretty familiar with the cuisine so I picked the Vada Pav to eat in and the Goan fish to take home for my wife. The Vada Pav was filling and tasted good. Its a good snack to have when you are hungry. The fish was decent too. My wife felt it was okay however she was not head over heel with the dish. I also had a cup of masala tea when I was in the restaurant. The tea seemed a little watered down but the taste was fine. There is ample parking in and around the location and they also have seating inside the restaurant. Not a bad place to get some Indian food. I understand they also have some food by the plate where you can mix a few items. They have a good range of vegetarian and meat dishes on the menu. The accept credit cards, cash and Apply pay. Overall good place to try out.

This place is delicious and affordable. An excellent place to get a quick lunch. They have something for everyone including delicious vegan options. The staff there was really kind and helpful and the music they were playing was awesome! I will definitely be back

Visited this restaurant a couple of weeks ago on a weekday. Very nice and cozy restaurant with ample of Indian dishes available on the menu. We tried sag paneer, dal makhani, naan, masala chai and rice. The curries and dal were really delicious. They also had alu gobi, chhole chana and some eggplant curry on the menu. If you are going in a group, they do have a family combo meal for $60 which serves 3-4 people. On side they also keep various soft drinks including Mango lassi. We did buy mango lassi and it was really good as well. We wanted to try their date and walnut ice cream but they had ran out of that flavor. The staff is super friendly and I believe they do allow tasting of curries before you purchase, which is really helpful in case you want to try out some new dish. The restaurant is in a strip mall and it has ample of parking. We found parking right in front of the restaurant. :) Overall we had a really good experience and will definitely visit again when we are in the town.
