Halal, Vegan, Gluten-Free: How Zahida Welcomes Every Guest
Finding a restaurant in Copenhagen that ticks all the boxes — delicious, stylish, halal, vegan-friendly, gluten-free aware and serves wine and cocktails — can feel like a big ask. At Zahida, we don’t think it should be.
Since opening, Zahida has been about more than just Pakistani food. We’re about hospitality— and for us, that means making sure everyone at the table feels welcome, included, and well-fed
Beetroot Chaat, Achari Karaage, Hunza street slaw, paneer 65, lamb tacos and stuffed tempura mirch,
A Halal Restaurant That Doesn’t Compromise on Creativity
Let’s start with halal. Every dish on Zahida’s menu is halal, from the butter chicken you’ll dream about later to our spicy fried chicken and slow-braised lamb
But here’s the thing: we don’t just rely on tradition. Our chefs push boundaries, blending Pakistani classics with modern techniques and unexpected flavours. Halal dining at Zahida doesn’t mean predictable — it means bold, layered, unforgettablE
Vegan and Vegetarian Menus That Go Way Beyond “SalaD”
We take real pride in our vegan and vegetarian menus. These aren’t afterthoughts or “just leave out the meat” versions of regular dishes.
We craft dishes where vegetables, legumes, and spices shine on their own
Charred aubergine with Kashmiri chili emulsion
Smoked chickpea chaat with tamarind and mint
Coconut panna cotta with star anise and blueberry compote
If you’re vegan or vegetarian in Copenhagen, Zahida gives you a seat at the table where you don’t have to compromise on excitement.
Gluten-Free? You’re in Good Hands
We know gluten-free dining can be tricky, especially when it comes to South Asian food where breads often take center stage. That’s why we’ve worked carefully to offer gluten-free options across the tasting menu and à la carte, without sacrificing texture or taste.
Whether it’s crispy karaage, delicate fish, or rich curries, we make sure our gluten-free guests get the same love on the plate as everyone else.
Why It Matters to Us
At Zahida, we believe food is connection. It’s laughter, stories, shared moments, and memories made. And none of that works if someone at the table is left out.
So whether you’re looking for a halal restaurant in Copenhagen, craving vegan indian /Pakistani food or searching for a gluten-free restaurant that actually cares, we want you here. Bring your friends, your family, your date — we’re ready to cook for you.
