Zara’s Restaurant has been a dream of mine since I moved to the United States in 1983 with my husband. As a Pakistani who married into a Kashmiri family, my passion for cooking has always been rooted in quality, community, and tradition. After working in the restaurant business for over 30 years, I decided to pursue my dream of bringing a taste of home to the U.S.Zara’s Restaurant is an authentic and unique Pakistani cuisine in an elegant setting that offers rich savory flavors, clay oven cooking, and a colorful assortment of spices. Our barbecued chicken, kabobs, and lamb are delicately marinated and cooked over a flame, creating a taste that cannot be found in an ordinary kitchen.I named Zara’s Restaurant after my first granddaughter, and you can trust that we serve our food with love and pride. We invite you to join us for a memorable dining experience.

    Excellent food; our party had Caesar salads, the Short Rib Lasagna, Chicken Milanese, a 'customized' Spaghetti and Meatballs dish, and the Mussels with Pasta; all were delicious. Also, this is a BYOB so come prepared. Note: We often have desserts which are very good but friends brought desserts for eating afterwards at home. Next time.

    We Love Seasons 52. What a great night. First of all when we got to our booth there was cold air blowing. The waitress immediately, and with a pleasant smile, got us a more comfortable booth. Our server was so cheery, welcoming. Gave us great recommendations on the menu. We were a party of 4 and all of us were celebrating birthdays. Our server overheard us and gave us each a glass of champagne. And the big surprise - we each got a gift certificate for a free flatbread on I wish our next visit. What a nice treat. Love this restaurant. Wish there was a way we could insure her management team knew what a valuable asset she is to the restaurant.

    As ALWAYS, the food was on point, served appropriately hot, perfectly generous portions and scrumptious. The service impeccable and prices are fair. Lastly, even though I always find myself having an “elegant sufficiency” I also always have some leftovers to enjoy the next day. 🥰
