Rasoi Vegetarian

Wandered in here by chance one time with the wife and now we're hooked! The samosas are the best I've ever had: crunchy exterior surrounds a creamy potato filling sweetly spiced with star anise. Perfect when dipped in their tamarind chutney and while a deal at their regular price they're even 2 for 1 between 11-noon. I would literally eat these for brekkie five days a week and they never get old. Their masala dosa is as good as the best ones I tried in Malaysia (where I fell in love with dosa) and by far the best I've had in Auckland. They have a strong heavenly sour/fermented taste and aroma and a generous amount of filling is still in balance with an enormous wrapper that extends well over the serving plate. Although in some occasions we have had it served a bit soft, it is usually brown and stays crisp throughout eating. It's spicyness is pleasantly tempered by the cooling coconut chutney and/or a mango lassi that they also top with coconut. We have tried some curries here and they are nice as well but it is the dosa and samosas that are really exceptional--a pinnacle food experience in my life that surrounds food. We regret every time we've walked past without knowing--don't make the same mistake!

Tastes and feels like home. Not the cheapest food on Karangahape Road but definitely good value.

Have been coming here on and off for years. Decent food and good service. Reasonable pricing too. Try the chai. The place is an instution of Kroad

The meal was ok-ish!<br/ <br/ I did not like the capsicum curry thing as it was on the fat and oily side.<br/ <br/ Some of the curries were on the too spicy side for my palate or the taste was a bit metallic.

Love the dhal soup and samosas and the cute soap like candy in the window called barfi. The shared combos are a good price too. Delicious vegetarian
