Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I’ve been getting takeout from zaika every Saturday for years and it was always fabulous but they must have a different chef now as it’s been so disappointing for months! I complain and it’s better for a few weeks . Last Saturday though it was...awful again the pakora tasted awful as if it had been cooked ages ago ,the popadoms were soggy and the curry sauce was nothing like it used to be! Also we always ask for a garlic Nan bread and they couldn’t even get that right and gave us a soggy plain one! Ive really had enough this time and am going to try another Indian takeout next week! So disappointing!More

We have been getting takeaway from Zain’s for years and it was always excellent but these last few months they must be using a different chef on a Saturday as it’s been awful. Curry sauce is now so hot I can’t eat it the chicken...is sometimes so burnt it’s disgusting and last night there weren’t even any onions in the dish! I have complained to them already and it did improve for a few weeks but last nights was worse than ever! Maybe it’s time to try somewhere else??More

Best Indian carry out in West Lothian. Generous portions, exquisite flavours, freshly cooked and always leave you a 'wee extra'. ... Puri and Bhoona are our favourites.

I just wanted to thank the staff at Zaika for the kindness they showed to my mum today. They went out of their way to help my elderly mum who had broken down and was in need of help. Not only did they let her...use the toilet (where the Coop had not), but offered her complimentary drinks and food whilst she waited on a taxi that they also called for her. They couldn’t do enough to help her. My mum has eaten from here before and says the food is delicious but excellent service and genuine care are not as easy to come by so thank you again.More
