Was Anonym at Rasa a mag?
This restaurant stands out from the usual upscale Indian dining options, offering a unique selection on its menu. I particularly enjoyed the appetizers, which were quite impressive. The presentation of the main dishes was excellent, just like the appetizers, but I didn’t find any of the four dishes we ordered to be particularly exceptional. The desserts were on the expensive side, but they did taste good. View all feedback.

What Molly Legros dislikes about Rasa:
I would recommend they need to staff more people to answer the phones. Based on the popularity of the restaurant, a bigger and more formal place is needed. I was expecting a Michelin star ambience experience! However the setting was compensated by the taste of the chutneys and spices. View all feedback.

Now, regarding the food: we started with the Bombay Sliders, which are essentially a more upscale version of the Indian Vada Pav. It had a different flavor compared to what you’d find in Mumbai, but it was still a delight to eat—definitely full marks for that dish! We also ordered the Mangalorean Chicken, which I don’t see on their menu anymore (it might be the Curry Leaf Chicken now), and it was exceptional. For the main course, we had the Malabar Shrimp Masala, Butter Chicken (which came with delicious parathas), and Rasa Chicken Biryani. All of these dishes were absolutely heavenly, especially when paired with some good beer or wine! I was too full for dessert, but given the quality of everything else, I'm sure it would have been delightful too. As for the pricing, being a fine dining establishment, it's on the pricier side. However, I always assess the price in relation to the quality and quantity of the food, and I believe it represents good value for money. Overall, I highly recommend this Indian restaurant if you find yourself in the area. Cheers!

The restaurant offers excellent South Indian cuisine, staying true to the traditional southeastern cooking style of India. The vada pav, although more typical of the Midwest, is prepared exceptionally well and is a must-try. Additionally, the dosa is also highly recommended.
