LaZeez Restaurant - Yummy!! - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

Awesome, consistent, delicious, prices are very fare and great ambiance. Everyone must try!!!!

Authentic Pakistani food in Albany. Highly recommend the chicken tikka masala, the lamb vindaloo, and the garlic naan

I don't usually look for large servings but the fact that the salmon tikka was $16 for 4 small pieces of salmon was kindof shocking. The samosas didn't have much spices and we couldn't taste the difference between the garlic naan and the plain naan we ordered, The saag paneer had 3 pieces of paneer in the whole thing. I was sharing these two dishes and it was hardly enough food for the price read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Salmon Tikka - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

A lovely dinner: Kashmir naan, chicken tikka masala, pakora, and kheer for dessert. Arrived in great shape, hot and tasty. Definitely recommended. read more

As of 05/23/21, they are reopened for indoor dining. Everything was excellent; the service and quality of food were spot on. Server was very busy getting takeout orders together, yet never missing a beat and was on top of our table. Our food came out quickly. It was piping hot (I can't stand when my food is luke warm). Very happy about that. Everything was delicious. We ordered some samosas as an appetizer, they were great. We went on a recommendation of a complete stranger. Glad that we bumped into them! read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Front: Beef Palak Back: Balochi Chicken - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

Grubhub and Lazeez are the best combination ever. You mean you can have a Pakistani/Indian dinner, in a great budget. When you download the grub hub app, they give you $10 off your first delivery order. I have tried so many Indian cuisine out there, by far Lazeez beats everyone. Still miss Sitar, but hey, as long as we got Lazeez, we good. They can improve on malai kofta, and get the recipe from me. read more

Have eaten many times for the lunch buffet. Assortment of mostly chicken and vegetarian recipes. Food is tasty. But I noticed the lunch buffet menu hardly varies. Friendly service, clean and cozy ambience. Lunch is $6.99 per person Menu includes naan, a lettuce tomato cucumber salad, chickpea salad, various Indian style dressings, pakoras, lentils and spinach, mixed vegetables, 2 variety of rice dishes, tandoori chicken, chicken in a cream sauce, cabbage dish, and always kheer rice pudding for dessert. You can go back as much as you want, but if you waste food you would be charged for another buffet. read more

First time trying Indian food. Atmosphere was quaint and clean. We were greeted by a wonderful man named Hedei, he helped us navigate the menu. The naan was phenomenal! I had the lamb masala, the meat was very tender and the sauce was creamy and not too spicy. All in all it was a great restaurant and Hedei talked with us about Indian cooking and culture when we asked him about the different dishes. read more

Visiting New York this weekend stopped by LaZeez and had dinner, OMG what an amazing experience. The restaurant, service and food was to die for. The options on the menu were endless and everything we tried was cooked to perfection and fresh. Please support ZaZeez if your in Albany New York you won't be disappointed. read more

We ordered 1 plate chicken seekh kabab, baingan bharta (eggplant dish), chicken vindaloo, naans, mango lassi and chai. Chicken seekh kabab was very tasty, baingan bharta was decent, chicken vindaloo was very bad. I won't even call it chicken vindaloo it was bland no taste the Curry's texture was wrong. Chai was not good, looked like the patti wasn't cooked to the max. Overall I would say an Ok restaurant. read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Chicken seekh kabab, baingan bharta, chicken vandaloo - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

I ordered roti and goat roganjosh.. it was good no doubt.. it was less spicy though.. wish I should have asked for more spicy. Imp Note: Unlike many other Ind-Pak restaurants.. I see they serve you lamb even when I had chose for goat.. Not that I dont eat lamb.. just that I dont enjoy it as much as goat. I am a muttton lover and l know what's on my plate. read more

This place is getting 1 star because the waitress/hostess/whatever she is accused my friend of picking food directly from the buffet and eating it. Obviously that did not happen because who would actually do that. She didn't apologize, just kept thinking she saw whatever she saw correctly. Also, even though the meal was cheap, the food was not that good. Take your $10 somewhere else. read more

Warning: delivery only review! This is my go-to place when I have the hankering for Indian food. They're pretty fast, and they give a substantial amount of food in both the entree and rice. Chicken Curry: This is a nice dish that you can specify to be spicy, and it's quite good. Sometimes, it can be a little greasy, but it usually it's quite good. Chicken TIkka Masala: If you want your typical, creamy and rich chicken curry, this is a pretty good dish. It's a sweeter tang than spicy, but it's quite good. Beef Curry: I tried this once, but I felt it was a little too greasy, and the flavor was a little vague, but I think it was swayed by the greasiness. I love their naan's and their different options. They're puffy and hot. I really like their plain naan, but I know my friends also enjoy the garlic naan and the jalapeno cheese naan. Their Biryani is also pretty well-flavored and generous in portion. read more

LaZeez is always my go-to. Reasonably priced, really good tasting food. I wish the chana masala was spicy like HOT but it is definitely full of spices like flavorful. Go with the cheddar jalapeño naan. The. Best! read more

Eugh..I don't know why I do this to myself, writing reviews while hungry, y'know? I'm probably going to get some Indian food later today because of this. We were driving back from Portland, ME when a craving of Indian food suddenly and unapologetically hit us. Yelp brought us here and we enjoyed a delicious Indian / Pakistani buffet. Butter chicken, chickpea + spinach inspired dishes + naan, vegetable korma and more. The buffet featured a lot of choices for vegetarians and meat eaters alike. Service was good. Water was refilled throughout. It would be nice if they cooked the naans to order rather than having them set out as part of the buffet (they get cold that way), but I'm just being nitpicky. If you're in the Albany area, Lazeez is a fine choice for Indian! read more

I have ordered take out from here on a number of occasions. I have used Grubhub which was easy and the food was ready at the specified time. I have ordered chicken curry and chicken tikki masala which were both good. I have, also, ordered cheese naan which was very good and fluffy, better than some of their competitors. They have a nice clean dining area and a buffet at lunch time as well. read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Vegetable Rice cabbage and mixed vegetables - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

Amazing dinner. We had chicken tikka masala, lamb korma, and aloo gobi. Sides of naan and parata. The main dishes were INCREDIBLE. Intense flavors, meat perfectly cooked (not overdone), vegetables well cooked, amazing taste. Naan and parata were average. But the main dishes were definitely extremely high quality, and we'll be ordering again soon. My new favorite Indian restaurant. read more

Lazeez offers more vegetarian selection in its buffet, and it has Bund Gobi in the selection which is my favorite :) read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Weekend Lunch Buffet - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

The place seemed pretty nice but our server had no problem burping in front of us as he was taking our orders.. we let that go. Two minutes later we look up and he's digging for diamonds in his nostrils. Makes question the sanitary condition of this establishment Update: we still ate here after all of the above. Not the brightest decision we've made, but we all got such bad stomachaches and the runs! I would NEVER return to the likes of this place. Ugh. Save yourself, run the other way. read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

What a great place! I came here with a Groupon deal for lunch and I was very pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent and the portions were very large. The service was great too and we enjoyed a very pleasant lunch. The deal wasn't good for the buffet, so I can't comment on that, though it looked very good. If you're coming here, definitely get the garlic naan, it's amazing! read more

The dirtiest restaurant I've ever been to. The window is so dusty and the dust is almost falling onto my plate. The bathroom smells moldy. I don't understand how it ever passed inspections. read more

I recently hosted an outdoor bridal shower for my best friend. I chose LaZeez Restaurant because the food came highly recommended by the bride. ALL of my interactions with the owner were professional. He responded with any changes as promptly as possible. Due to COVID there were restrictions and customizations that LaZeez handled well beyond my expectations. When the food arrived for the brunch time gathering every meal had been bagged individually, with the knife spoon and fork packed in each bag (30 bags!!!). Most importantly, every single person, even the pickiest of eaters among the guests, raved about the food. I couldn't have asked for a better restaurant/caterer our vent. Whether you want just enjoy their delicious food or you're looking to cater an event I highly recommend LaZeez Restaurant. read more

Unfortunately, they don't offer to dine bc of a pandemic. Take out still available and the food is unbelievably delicious.

Excellent quality food! Absolutely delicious. Great vegetarian and vegan food options.

I can see Lazeez's appeal; big selection, large amount of tables to seat everyone and a loyalty punch card; what's not to love about that? Unfortunately, although they have a wide variety of selections for us to choose from, the food was very lackluster. We came in weekday for lunch and it was packed. Excited, we got in line and started to pile our plates filled with food. Our first bite in was okay, but then you can tell how watered down the curries was and the tikka masala as well. The whole time we were eating, the only thing I could think about was how good other Indian places were and how close they were. So take a few extra steps and head over to Aashiana because their food is miles better. read more

This place is fantastic. We have been twice. Once for the dinner buffet and once for the lunch buffet. Calm and peaceful environment. Selections are abundant and everything is delicious. Service is wonderful and attentiPrices are outstanding. Couldn't ask for more. Update- Another wonderful experience at the lunch buffet. You guys are the best! Highly recommend. read more

This used to be my favorite restaurant, until they served me rotten food, twice. The onion chutney was brown. I took a bite and it was absolutely rancid. I discreetly told them and they replaced it with more brown chutney and asked me to try it. It was still rancid. I can't believe they actually served me the same chutney. Oh so then I tell this to my friend and she was just here a week before and ordered take out and her chicken Tikka had a HALF EATEN PIECE OF NA'AN IN THE MIDDLE. They literally scraped people's uneaten food off of their plates and put it back on the buffet. Vomit. Never, ever, again will any of my family go there. read more

The best Indian food I've had in the Capital Region. Awesome Groupon available right now that made everything very affordable, but it would be affordable either way. Awesome mulligatawny soup and their portions are perfect. 100% going back! read more

Do you remember The Max on Saved By The Bell? Its where everyone hung out after class. During high school ('00) my friends and I would hit the Shalimar RIGHT after class, sometimes even during so I have an emotional attachment to the establishment as a whole. I come here EVERY TIME I am home from San Francisco.....the problem is the service. The food has only gotten better! It took over an hour to get our food, no one refilled our drinks....we have started nicknaming it Lazy's. read more

Tonight was my second time here and I must say outstanding both times. The service was incredible. The gentlemen working were so friendly, and kind. They were very attentive and got us drinks the moment we walked through the door. We ordered so much and it was all excellent. - lamb vindaloo - chicken curry - some vegetarian chick pea and potato dish - naan and another fry type bread - a variety of meat and veggie appetizers - mango lassie - strawberry lassie They seemed a little afraid to serve us our food too spicy so they had us rate how hot we wanted it on a scale of 1-10 and said if it was to mild or too spicy to let them know. They seemed to really care about the quality of our meal. I think this is the best Indian place in town. I have been to curry house, Ghandi, Latham biryani many many times each and lazeez is the best by far. I would give five stars but I am still relatively new to Indian food. I have only been eating it for about 2 or 3 years so I'm going to hold out for now. This is a must try! read more

I came in here once for their lunch buffet. I found it very reasonably priced ($6.99, excluding drink) with a pretty decent selection of food to choose from. The palak paneer was my favorite. The chicken tikka was very good, the meat was white and free of fat or gristle. Their lunch buffet is Monday thru Friday, and I believe that they have a dinner buffet on the weekend. Parking isn't too terrible, if you're willing to pay for metered parking. You can park right in front, and if not, there's plenty of room across the street. Be careful when crossing Central Avenue. The atmosphere is nice, not too fancy. Comfortable spot. There seem to be a lot of regulars here, and the wait staff is very friendly. Will definitely have to drop by again or try their delivery, next time I'm in town. read more

This place is near a friend's apartment and we were both craving Indian. Great. Each of their drinks, bowls, plates, etc. are served in metal. The metal cups keep the water ice cold, which is pretty cool, but it's also just a fun dining experience. You get big portions (as is traditional with Indian) and the prices are pretty good. I liked the atmosphere, especially with the plants everywhere. The staff is incredibly nice and welcoming. The bathroom is fine. I enjoyed it! read more

Good place .. Had Tandoori chicken, paneer tikka masala, malai kofta and Biryani.. Good service and good food. But if u r looking for a restaurant with hard drinks or wine with indian food, then it's not the place to go as they don't serve hard drinks or wine. But over all good food.. read more

LaZeez Restaurant - Tandoori Chicken - Indian Near Me - Albany, New York

I love this place. Seriously, all-you-can-eat lunch buffet with free iced tea for $7? How much better can it get? I've had a couple groupons from here, so I've tried some of the a la carte dinner stuff as well, but I usually just go for the buffet. The owner (I think) is almost always there and very friendly and polite. Once during a crowded lunch a belligerent drunk man came into the restaurant (welcome to Albany) and he was very professional in dealing with the situation quickly. It's usually not too crowded, which is nice. The lunch buffet has salad, chickpea salad, sauces, etc. at the beginning. There's plain naan and usually another type to try (cheese naan, garlic naan, even coconut naan - yum!). They often have some fried vegetable/potato type things as an appetizer too. White rice plus biryani. Five entrees available, if I recall correctly. Usually 1-3 vegetable ones, 1-2 chicken, sometimes lamb. Chicken tikka masala is always available and always delicious. Chicken is tender, sauce is perfectly spiced. The other dishes rotate but I've liked all the ones I've tried. They have a sweet pudding available as a dessert as well, which is delicious (although I rarely remember to leave room). Only downfalls: Drink refills can be kind of slow - you may have to flag down someone and ask for it. Sometimes the dishes not kept over heat are cold, like naan and the onion fritters. I think this is probably because it tends to be fairly empty during the times I've come - usually later lunches. Best to keep an eye out for when they bring the food out, or just ask. read more

As a spicy loving indian, I do not like it , in fact I hated food here. They dont even have somebody who can make fresh lemonade! Boy! order a lemonade & you will get packaged bottle and empty glass. Food is also average. Albany has better option than this. read more

Lazeez has brought something different, unique and fantastic to our lake dining experience. It is worth the trip. Hummus is like butter it's so creamy and yummy. Ask for the tomato sauce for anything you try. It's flat fantastic. read more
