"Rasika is perfect for a fancy night out. Although they have an extensive veggie section of the menu, I elected to try the tasting menu because I wanted to try as many of the dishes as possible. In addition to an omnivore tasting menu, Rasika has a vegetarian tasting menu that can easily be made vegan. Unlike some restaurants where the veggie options feel like they're not given as much attention as the meat options, Rasika is a place where you can go as a group of mixed diners and feel totally satisfied that what you are getting as part of your tasting menu is of equal quality (if not better) than your meat-eating companions (for $10 less My meat-eating husband got the regular tasting menu, and I felt that my meal was totally on par with his. From the menu, it appears that the tasting menu is four courses, but it actually ends up being quite a bit more food than that. I mentioned to our server that I am vegan, and then the vegan-friendly food just started arriving. First there was a samosa, then a fried spinach appetizer, and then a third appetizer which was like a little tower of eggplant slices with mashed potatoes in the middle. For the main course I got four silver pots full of different Indian dishes, plus rice, okra, and bread (separate vegan bread was brought for me without me having to ask). As if that weren't way too much food, the dinner finished off with three scoops of delicious sorbet. This was truly an extravagant, decadent dinner. I loved how the staff were familiar with vegan diets; they must see a lot of vegan customers. In fact, I overheard one of the diners at the table next to ours discussing with his dining companions that he was vegan."

We only stopped in for drinks, but the ambiance and cocktails were delightful. We also tried a selection of papadum, which was excellent, and the sauces were delicious. The service was friendly, efficient, and appeared very COVID-safe. View menu

Veg/vegan friendly, find dining, Indian restaurant. Wonderfully spiced Indian cuisine. Professional staff. Not a specifically veg/vegan menu, but the staff is very helpful and those dishes that are veg/vegan are soooo worth the hunt. Great wine list as well.

I love going to Rasika for lunch with a group. It's great to have a chance to share more of their wonderful dishes and I love that I can actually hear everyone at the table. We were a group of six and could easily carry on a conversation without straining to hear or needing to shout. So elegant and civilized!

My friend and I were excited to try out this restaurant after hearing great things about it. We thoroughly enjoyed the vegan eggplant appetizers, but the rest of the vegan options for dinner were lacking, especially considering the prices. The service, on the other hand, was excellent, and our waiter was knowledgeable about the vegan menu. View menu

I adore Rasika. It may not be as popular with everyone, but my Indian friends insist that it is the best, and I agree. What sets it apart is its unique take on Indian cuisine, offering dishes that differ from those found in traditional curry houses. For example, during my last visit, I enjoyed a delightful sweet potato soup topped with cranberry chutney. It was simply amazing! The portions are on the smaller side, catering to a more refined dining experience. Every dish I tried that evening, with the exception of the dahl, was exceptional. I still have dreams about those samosas! The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, and the service is top-notch. I've also heard good things...

we came to dinner because we just flew in, it was cold and rainy, and this place was near our hotel. it turned out to be a complete guy. first the entire menu had only four vegan options. all other vegetarian dishes were premade with any form of milk in it. Actually, I was never so rigid vegan-unfriendly in an Indian restaurant. second, eating was simply not good or authentic. we ordered the gobi matar, the mushroom curry, reis (more later) and a series of the roti. I would say the most authentic thing was probably the . the curries tasted very bland, mild and buried. the mushroom cuurry even had green tweeping in it that I had never met before in Indian food. good red should come fresh and...
