• Pakistani • Princeton
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.

    4/20/25_Easter Sunday_ I have been Amalfi's many times before, but this is the first time that I was there with my family on a holiday for a special buffet event. I must say that I was VERY impressed!! The restaurant was extremely clean, the tables were set beautifully, food was plentiful, it was hot (or cold), and it was just a nice overall experience! Highly recommend Amalfi's for special events like this!

    I wish I took pictures of the meals! Delicious. Burger stuff with crabmeat! What?! Quick service and delivered hot. A busy night and all the servers were on top of their game. Weaving thru the dance crowd. And what an amazing night of music. The place was packed with “Best of Clapton” fans. And their set didn’t miss a song and the level of playing was off the charts. All I can say is “🎶 you were wonderful tonight🎶”.

    Zara’s exceeds expectations. This spacious, welcoming neighborhood restaurant delivers every excellence every time. Our dinner with another couple who tried Zara’s for the first time was simply delicious. Our friends took seconds and even thirds it was all so good.  The menu options are many and they can adjust the degree of space to taste. We look forward to our return.
