Best Butter Chicken in Calgary NE

About Our Butter Chicken

Butter Chicken is the most loved dish to come out of North Indian kitchens, and at Shahi Zaika Restaurant we prepare it the traditional way. Succulent chicken pieces are marinated in yogurt and spices, cooked in the tandoor for a gentle smoky char, then folded into our house-made makhani gravy.

That gravy is what keeps Westwinds, Martindale, and Saddleridge families coming back — a luscious blend of tomatoes, butter, cream, and kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves) that gives our butter chicken its distinctive, slightly sweet finish. Pair it with garlic naan or fragrant basmati rice for the ultimate Indian comfort food in northeast Calgary.
