Found myself downtown around lunchtime and finally decided it was time to check out Zayka -- and…read morewow, I'm glad I did. From the outside, you'd never guess how spacious it is inside. There's even outdoor seating and a rooftop (pretty sure I spotted that), but with it being 30 degrees out, I kept my Missouri-born self firmly indoors. I was seated right away and handed both the full menu and their daily lunch menu, which comes with two choices: vegan or non-vegan. Plot twist -- even the non-vegan option arrives as a full-on sampler platter with a veggie dish included. My plate came stacked: fluffy basmati rice, rich butter chicken(top middle), tender chicken tandoori (top left), a hearty vegetable curry (top right), three massive slices of fresh naan, and a little dessert to finish things off. All for fifteen bucks. Fifteen! It's easily one of the best lunch deals downtown. Everything was hot, fresh, and packed with flavor -- except the dessert (bottom middle), which was cold(because it's supposed to be, but still super tasty. Zayka absolutely delivers on bold, authentic Indian cuisine at a price point that just feels unfair to everyone else. The buffet must still be an option, but not Thursdays apparently, so I'm already planning my return trip.

We have another India restaurant in town that is our favorite, but we were downtown and decided to…read morepop in to Zayka. The food was really good. We enjoyed the naan bread a lot. It was different than most places. The tikka masala was also a little different than we're used to but it was still really good. We ordered medium spice and I will warn you, it was definitely more spicy than medium. However, we don't eat here often and I'm not as familiar with their spice scale. Service started out great but got slow at the end. Overall good experience though! I have to admit, we will probably default to our other favorite Indian spot but I would come here again if I was in the downtown area.

The selection offers a great variety, making it easy to find something you'll enjoy whether you're new to Indian cuisine or a longtime fan. One of the highlights for us was discovering that the owners are the former owners of Taj Mahal on Republic Road. Having recently moved back to Springfield from Las Vegas, it was refreshing and comforting to see familiar faces again. The buffet truly has something for everyone. Adventurous eaters can explore a variety of traditional Indian dishes, while those with dietary preferences, including vegans, will find plenty of delicious options as well. The welcoming atmosphere and friendly service make the experience even better. We're happy to have India Palace in Springfield and look forward to many more visits. Highly recommended!

While visiting relatives we came back to Indian Palace for another go. We had only tried their…read morebuffet before, and it was really good. Five people were in our group and they seated us quickly. This place isn't necessarily "fancy" but they have a pretty decent seating area with an entertainment area that is private. Good size portions; my wife wasn't a huge fan of her mushroom masala, but I enjoyed the tikka masala "it's always what I order." Others with us enjoyed their lamb curry, and the garlic naan was also nice; think and but not to crisp. We don't drink, but the people with us said the drinks were very reasonable. Also got some gulab jamun for dessert. Tasted great, but I wish they were bigger or there was more than two per serving. Our server could have been a bit kinder and more knowledgeable of the menu, but the owners are great and so is the food. Definitely recommend coming here.

Everything on the buffet was fresh and plentiful, and I appreciated the desserts and chai were included. I was sad to find out on Wednesday 5/6 that they now only have a buffet on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They do have a lunch platter: chicken curry, veg korma, rice and naan for...I don't remember, maybe $10? The korma was great but the curry was a little light on the chicken. Regardless, this is a great choice for Indian especially on that side of town. I was also reviewing their menu and was delighted to see that they have Momos, which I believe are Nepalese dumplings. I will definitely try them next time I'm there! The mango lassi was fabulous too, and I noticed that they have Rose lassi and lime soda as well.

The menu is easy to understand, but the staff was able to answer all of our questions and explain different menu items in detail. Everyone was nice and welcoming. I got the Hotstone Bibimbap (suggested by the lady who took my order because it continues to cook when served, making the rice crispy and vegetables hot. I chose white rice topped with bulgogi and spicy shrimp. For sauce, I chose Sesame and Kochi to a little add extra kick. I had the kimchi put to the side. It also came with a miso soup . This whole combination was so delicious. Stayed hot the entire time and was plenty enough to share. The Yaki Soba, which is a noodle dish, was also very flavorful, came out fresh and hot. The Japchae was equally delicious and full of flavor. The sweet potato noodle of this dish was different, but still pretty tastey. I recommend leaving this for the experienced eaters. Lastly, we tried the kimbap. It was a typical kimbap, nothing stood out. Everything came out fresh, cooked to order, and hot. The price for everything was very reasonable. I would dent come again.
