Raasta Cafe - Pune

Not great for Cocktail recipes ! They have a very bad and diluted concept for Cocktails. Food is good, specially non-veg recipes like Teriyaki Chicken, Jerk Chicken. Sitting arrangement is good, has good light and proper service. Runs Happy hours during the day times. Pricing is somewhat higher as compared to taste of food. Their LIT(Long Island Tea) is not at all worth the try !

Good place for hangout with friends. Ambiance is good.

Raasta Café needs no introduction. This particular outlet is more for the corporate crowd considering the space interiors. The ambience is nice and quirky with caricatures featuring the corporate life cycle and the ceiling is kind of trippy and every time you look up, you see a different offer up there station feels). Now talking about food, we tried a couple of mocktails, starters and mains. 1. Cold Coffee Shake 2. Virgin Mojito 3. Magic Mushrooms – Portobello mushrooms sautéed with Italian herbs and spices was delicious. The only problem here was the size of the mushrooms. Some were too big in size and when you try to eat it as a whole then you realise that the sauce has not coated the mushrooms properly. I think they should just increase the quantity of the sauce considering the size of the mushrooms. 4. Chicken Teriyaki – Chicken teriyaki was decent. Nothing wow but nothing bad either. 5. Veg Falafel in Pita Pockets – I didn’t eat this one but enjoyed clicking it. 6. Mutton Shami Pao – All the elements were on point- right from the green chutney to the mutton seekh to the veggies. Everything was perfect but the only problem here was the pao or the bread, it was super dry. Maybe it was a bad day for us. 7. Veg Kheema Pao – Okay! So I didn’t know there’s something called as a veg kheema too. When I tried this one I realised that it is made from soya to give it that meaty texture. So where did this one fail? It was too salty and the pao was crumbling. 8. Herb Butter marinated Grilled Chicken – Grilled chicken breast prepared in BBQ sauce is served with mash potatoes grilled veggies was awesome. This is a perfect dish! The consistency of the sauce is just right and the mash potatoes and grilled veggies make for great sides. #HighlyRecommended. 9. Burmese Khow Suey Chicken) – We called for a non veg one for obvious reasons. The presentation is so simple yet so nice. And talking about the taste, the Khow Suey was decent but the consistency of curry was too runny and the chicken pieces were also less. 10. BBQ Grilled Chicken Pizza – I loved this one! For me it was the star of the show. The base was perfect. The sauce and the toppings were just right. For me it was the “BOMB”. #MustTry 11. Paneer Tikka Naanza – Their naanza is fantastic. In simple words, ‘Dil khush kar denewala’. A sheer delight for the vegetarians. #MustTry #HighlyRecommended. 12. Oreo Freak Shake – I think the picture says it all! Overall the food and ambience is nice. There are some dishes that they need to work on I’m sure, they will) and some items are super hit. Definitely giving this place another shot. A big thank you to Ms. Kadam, Ms.Khani Mr. Prasad for inviting me and being such fab hosts. #jerlynfoodfanatic

Great ambience. The quantity of food is very low. The service is decent enough.

I'm here several times. Eating is good. Mocktails are great. Try Aamsutra, strawberry sourcing, school days. Do not go for stress Buster smoothie it is just banana milk shake. FalafAl and Pita hummus are good. Hasn't tasted this kind of hummus in a pee. It's good.
