I've tried most of the Indian Restaurants in Tucson and this is the 1st one that is legit. The flavors are so good and the quality of every dish was A. Best Garlic Naan I've had in Tucson and the Chicken Korma was perfect. You must try the chicken pakora, the flavor and texture are perfection. This is gonna be our new regular restaurant.

I went here on my trip to Tucson and decided to get the chicken vindaloo, and it was pristine compared to what I've had in the past. I noticed not one dish was similar, which my family worried about because of other experiences. Service was great the men serving us were very kind and helpful giving us another table for the amount of food and people at the table. and one of them wanted to give me a handful of their candies but I declined. The atmosphere was very good, the building was nice and the smell of the food was great.

Wow, what a treat this Fourth Avenue spot is. You're in for a great meal, excellent service, perfect for a date night. We were greeted warmly, and seated promptly. After ordering drinks, we decided to share the lamb biryani and vegetable samosas. Neither disappointed! The samosas, I was told, are vegetarian. Dense, packed with glorious Indian spices. It was difficult to stop eating them, a real taste adventure. The biryani was out of this world. Big chunks of lamb in the most deliciously flavored rice. I've had this dish numerous times at other places. Zyka's rendition is my favorite by far. What a great little gem. Great food, calm attentive service, and a pretty little place to take your special someone. You owe it to yourself (cmon, you deserve it - you know you do!) To give Zyka Twist a try!

I had the lamb tikka masala medium plus heat. Perfect seasoning and flavors were wonderful. I heard the garlic naan was good. I disagree. It is great!! Just a little bit of crisp on the bite is perfect. Would definitely recommend. The interior is plain but clean.

By far the best Biryani I have ever had! It is always fresh made to order and packed with so much flavor; you never had Biryani until you’ve tried it here. Also their garlic naan is absolutely delicious. Every time I come (I’m addicted to their food so that’s often) they are so nice and friendly. They have a lovely patio that is dog friendly. This place is a Tucson gem, everyone I have brought to this place is now a major fan, take my word you will be one too!

Excellent, loved my samosa with 2 chutney and my vegetable biryani. Food arrived quickly. Mild was perfect with a little bite. The biryani rice was light and fluffy; spices tasty; assorted vegetables with a variety of textures and colors, and it was enough for 2 meals. Take out the cardamom pods before eating. They're tucked in, hiding. I loved the smiling happy server. He was attentive even though it was busy. Street Parking with meters. Saturday at 4pm seemed free. Life is good. Looking forward to my leftovers tomorrow. Yum!

Very fresh and packed with flavor! Chicken Tikka Masala is my general gluten free go-to. Zyka's Tikka is battling for my #1 tikka in Tucson so far. Good portions, balanced flavor, tender chicken. They weren't very busy so service was pretty fast too. Will definitely be back!

I ordered takeout of the chicken korma dish with a side of garlic naan and both were (for the most part) phenomenal! Seriously; the 'special house gravy' is delicious. A little fruity and even a hint of coconut maybe. My only qualm (and reason for four stars for food) is the rice was a bit dry and crunchy. The naan was amazing and the chicken in the korma was very good as well. I was greeted kindly by one of the employees and given my order promptly. The atmosphere (interior design) of the restaurant is very nice and tasteful; I imagine dining-in would be nice as well. Aside from a weird odor that smelled like cleaning product (it was slow, I imagine the employees were doing some tasks to fill the time), this is a really nice restaurant and the food is very good with I do think a 'twist' on how chicken korma usually tastes.
