The food is always great. We ordered too much, knowing how much we'd enjoy a second dinner the next day. Our server, Jeffrey, was attentive and knowledgeable. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Our group of 9 had a wonderful time at Rasa, enhanced by our wonderful waiter. The menu is a bit of a challenge for some of us, it he was very helpful. The portions are very good and I had a wonderful mocktail made with mango. The naan is to die for, but the salad really had no ‘salad’ in it. It was chopped cucumber, garbanzo beans and red peppers, with 2 lettuce leafs on the side. Not expected. I do feel more description is needed for these unfamiliar dishes, and some less spices choices are needed. The okra and the cauliflower are superb as appetisers. In all a fun exploration into something different. Lunch specials are generous.

We have been dining at Rasa since they opened their doors. It’s a go-to for us at at least every other month. Sadly, I’ve noticed that since their manager left, the overall quality of food has changed. Things that were prepared perfectly are cooked less so, as in the case of the Cauliflower 65. It was usually very crispy on the outside and slightly firm on the inside. Last night it was just chewy the whole way through with a slightly soggy crust on the outside. Maybe it was a fluke. And, it won’t stop us from dining there in the future, but, we will be looking to see if this is the new normal. I felt that it deserved noted to the Chef and Management.
RasaResponded on 13 February 2025
Hello Brigida. Thank you so much for your feedback. Our chefs are responsible for controlling the quality of our menu and will be made aware of the issue and we promise to rectify the situation. See you again soon.
