There's always a long line at this downtown takeout spot for savory Indian and Pakistani curries.

This is not Indian food

by freedomisavoice

They serve tortillas instead of naan and most of the dishes leave you burping for hours afterward. Need I say more?

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

My personal favorite

by spicy0ne

I moved to California seven years ago. This is still my favorite lunch whenever I get the chance to re-visit Seattle. Never would have imagined myself liking middle eastern food. Cafe Zumzum was a great introduction. I've even taken my kids...and they, of course, loved it too. Whether you commute downtown everyday or visit once in a lifetime, I would recommend stopping by for a tasty and memorable meal. Seating can get crowded, but take-out is available.

  • Pros: every menu item, service, price
  • Cons: closed on weekends, close early weekdays

The Details on Cafe Zumzum

Know Before You Go:

Since this is a downtown lunch spot, the line is particularly long during peak lunch hours--though it usually goes fairly quickly.

Where to Sit:

Take it to go and snag a table outside on nice days.

Save Money:

The changing daily lunch special is a particular bargain.
