Zala... is the hosts' name and means "recommendation" in the Indian language. Our goal is to give you moments of rest and enjoyment with our dishes and service. Enjoy our oriental, delightful and exclusive dishes, which are made daily and with ultimate perfection by our chefs in all our restaurants. We use exquisite and fresh ingredients every day, for example our special curry-composites are freshly made by our chefs and remain as their secrets. You can choose the degree of spiciness matching to your personal preferences. Also our house made Indian cheese will seduce your sense of taste. Since our chefs constantly attempt to confirm our high standards we kindly ask you to have a little patience if the dish you are going to order may take some time. All our dishes are cooked without any flavour enhancer and can be ordered completely vegan! Hint: The host suggest, especially to our first time visiting guests, one of our special three-course meal (we serve three different main dishes) to enjoy and eat your fill!

If I order spicy, then I want it spicy too. Mediocre.
I ordered still water just before the end of the day and got a coke even though I ordered still water And the food was extremely spicy although I noted it down, please, no hot sauce, please
MoreMango Lassíe is the Hamer! Palak Panir was rather little sheep and not medium sheep as stated there! Therefore only fir of five stars. It was super good. Delivery free of charge. Conclusion: very fulfilling dining experience. Actually one star less because too much plastic packaging, because of the environment and so on, but what should you do. Kind regards, let yourself be savored.
MoreIt is really a cheek that the food took almost two hours to be delivered. And that at a distance of only approx. 1 km. A call after just over an hour could not provide any meaningful information about when the delivery was coming or where it was. The increased rush due to the Corona restrictions must also ensure that the food ordered arrives within an acceptable time. Otherwise you should just be so professional and honest with yourself and others if you are not able to do it! In addition, the driver should not be arrogant after this time and call the food warm when asked. It was at most lukewarm and the portions quite manageable. It's a shame, it could really be better!
MoreReally authentic Indian rather not
Very bad service! We came for early dinner and asked a table near the window, restaurant that moment was totally empty. The person says is not possible as he has a lot of reservations for tonight. And put us in the most far angle of the restaurant. In half an hour i asked if it possible to move to the window as restaurant was still empty. He said ots impossible. We were waiting food for about 1 hour! That was too much as well. Food though was ok. Nothing great. And when we left was just other 2 tables occupied. End 3 table close to the window empty!! So was very stupid desicion not allow us to change the table. And lie. So now this restaurant lost clients, who likes indian food! Never again at this place!
MoreAn absolute disappointment. I waited 4 days with my review to be factual. First of all: the food itself was really okay. All right because: what we received was lukewarm, but the taste was enjoyable. We ordered the menu, which had 2 main courses, 2 mango lassi and papadam chips. After 1 1/2 hours of waiting and a phone call to find out where our order was, we were assured that it would arrive in the next 10 minutes (the driver is stuck in traffic, which is very implausible for a Wednesday evening around 8:45 pm). Yes, it came then, half cold and WITHOUT the papadam chips ordered and paid in advance via PayPal. Ultimately, one cannot complain about the quality of the food. However, if part of the order is missing and the other part arrives lukewarm and after more than 1 1/2 hours (on a Wednesday, not even on the weekend), the restaurant is not recommended and a disappointment that is not worth the money is! It should be mentioned that the restaurant promised us a voucher for 2 mango lasso as an "apology", which we unfortunately did not receive either. Would absolutely not recommend the restaurant because it ended up being more of a disappointment of the evening than a joy. And if I hadn't ordered from PayPal beforehand, I would have refused the meal after such a long wait and wrong delivery.
MoreFood is extremely tasty
Delicious, good and nice service. Food very tasty and plentiful😋. They had for one Wedding day the table was set very nicely.
MoreShortly before the end of business, we happened to get in there and were served very friendly despite the late hour. We took away the food we ordered. Both dishes were delicious. Should we ever come to Hamburg again, the Zala will be high on our list of restaurants worth visiting.
MoreThe restaurant have a lot of Indian feeling like interior. But its not an Indian restaurant. They dont offer Naan and the curries are not that particular Indian. They do have palak paneer and plain parathas are costly at 4 euros. I would prefer Indian restaurant over this.
MoreVery friendly staff. Food very tasty, several menus to choose from
Super delicious tomato curry !! 😍
I am annoyed with myself that I did not go straight to the order last night. My request to get a glass of tap water with my wine was first changed and dismissed with a flimsy excuse "the tap water was unfortunately not good enough to drink" and after my very incredulous look in "instruction from the boss, we must not pour tap water".
MoreProbably the worst waitress I've ever seen. Waiters don't speak German! The boss is arrogant and snooty. I advise you against the shed!
MoreDon't expect you can eat there if you reserve. We had reserved a table and then they wanted to make us wait an hour! The waitress was completely incomprehensible and wanted to justify herself with hypocritical excuses. "Yes, I have space!" - "Ok, but in an hour ?!"
MoreA good restaurant with Indian Taste. Enough cosy and comfortable. Prices are available. In a word I enjoyed it
MoreFresh, tasty lunch buffet and very friendly service.
Great food, nice traditional food.
Once again a wonderfully delicious food with a very discreet attentive service, which is simply stunning. The vegetarian pan was next to delicious also crackling & steaming hot .... highly recommended. Thank you dear team for this great evening.
MoreFood is tasty, but wow Service could be so much better. They have quite a Slow service for a Sunday night and no tap water, so expect to be paying 6.50 euros for just nature’s finest.
MoreAmazing
Thank you hadiZ Jon for an amazing evening....Zala has amazing Indian food and the spice is just perfect! This restaurant is a must visit if your in the area!
MoreWas eating there for the first time yesterday, but immediately became one of my favorite restaurants! The service is very friendly, the food is incredibly delicious, the prices are unbeatable for quality and quantity! I could have had enough of my food four times. I left what I left behind and got a huge portion of rice for free. Also the next day the food was really delicious! Absolutely recommended !!!
MoreJill Yang price satisfaction! The rice cooked with curry and accompanied by Basmati rice is delicious. Give the papadam and sauce for the whole ceremony. Mango is also good. I do not like bread.
MoreThe waiter was on his phone the whole time!! we had to stand up and tell him each time we needed something because he was on his phone.That is really unacceptable, he didn’t bother once to come and ask if we need something.
MoreI was there in 3rd March with my family. I like the ambiance of the place. The waiter recommended food that my Daughter could enjoy. We specifically asked for real spicy and we were happy to get a spiciness we asked for, but it could have been better if another taste would be add up, like salty and sour. Next time we will asked for more “intense” taste. Anyway, will go back to a food challenge soon.
MoreYamyam as always. Thank you.
Very nice and stylishly decorated restaurant. Our table by the window overlooking the Rothenbaumchaussee was really great and comfortable. We ordered two different dishes with beef, but there was little difference in taste. Aside from that but it tasted. Priced a bit overdrawn. I am not an expert on India, but I know that Indian cattle are sacred and not intended for human consumption. Nevertheless, beef is on the menu. A bit strange! The staff very friendly and attentively. Toilets clean. The only downside: at times intensified kitchen fumes in the guest room.
MoreGood buffet
Expensive but nice cosy place with acceptable food.
Excellent. JAY MATAJI.. JAY RAJPUTANA..JAY SARDARSINH RANA
Is this hotel of rajputs of india
Excellent restaurant.. Indian food varieties are so good.. especially Madras Chicken Curry- delicious taste.. good quality food and worth for money
MoreNo word to describe how the food tasted good. Oh my god I have to go there every time I go to Hamburg.
MoreNice cosy place with great food. The most important thing is that the base of all the curries are distinctly different and better than other Indian reataurants. The boufet in the aftetnoon is impressive and worth a try.
MoreVery tasty food, nice service and good ambience. Food can also be prepared spicy on request. Price performance is definitely right.
MoreMost unfriendly service ever! Please don't go!
Thank you for being with us!
We will call you back!
