   We were quickly greeted and seated outside as per our reservation. Everything from the vibes, drinks, food, to the service was INCREDIBLE. Our server walked us through recommendations and consistently checked in on us throughout the meal. Her energy was amazing! We ordered the fried chicken, beet salad, mantu dumplings, short rib and palaw. There was not a single item we did not enjoy! The portion sizes were really great too. We ended up having leftovers which is rare for us. We will definitely be back next time we are in town.

   The food and service at Zarak does not disappoint. Both the drinks and breakfast items on their breakfast menu are equally delicious as they are showstopping.

    Holy moly. This was mine and my friend’s first time at Zarak and boy was it an experience. Our server Sophia was absolutely phenomenal. Friendly, cheerful, well-versed in the menu and the offerings, and also very charming. She made the experience so wonderful (which is hard because we were already so impressed by everything else). The food: delicious. The menu: very interesting fusion that gives a cool kick and twist to traditional brunch menu items. The drinks? Fabulous. The mimosa flight is fun and the fruit loops drink is laced with a good amount of bourbon and nostalgic deliciousness.

    Server was lovely. Food and drinks were delicious. We were a party of three and two people got there food but the third had to wait quite a while for theirs. It was a cold sandwich so it was strange that it took so long. Will definitely go there again.

    My partner and I came by for brunch a while back and were so impressed by the food and drinks we had to come back for dinner. The cocktails were phenomenal (we both had the Zendegi and the Band-e-Amir) and we shared the mantu dumplings, Brussel sprouts, Uzbeki Palaw and bolani. Our server was truly excellent as well and helped guide us through the menu and offered plenty of recommendations (unfortunately I forgot to get his name). I would highly recommend Zarak to anyone, it truly was an amazing culinary experience and I can’t wait to come back!!

    The food was delicious and our service was excellent. We brought our kids with us. Often times that means we get poor service because people don't like kids in restaurants, but this was not the case. We were served wonderfully and we had a great celebration as a family. Thank you!

    An amazing experience all around. Staff were wonderful and tentative throughout the entire sitting. Owner was there the entire time keeping his eyes out and attending to every single guests throughout the night and making sure everything was going well. Amazing food with unique twists and inspirations. Pricing and portions are great as well. Definitely one of my favourites places to go with friends.

    We had an amazing brunch today at Zarak. We had the chicken + waffles and kebab + eggs skillet. Both were excellent. We also tried the French Toast and it was amazing. Our server was excellent. He was attentive, friendly and informative providing details about our entrees and drinks. We always enjoy our brunches and are looking forward to dinner in the near future. Thanks for another great experience!

    Service was excellent. Few of the dishes like short rib and fish were amazing. But I feel they need to expand the menu somewhat to bring in fresh updates - otherwise it’s hard to see myself going back there for the same meal.
