The pappadam was served with wonderful chutney and sauce and mango lassie. We had a wonderful appetizer called Bharrwan Aloo. My hubby had Dalcha Murgh and I had the Shaam Severa. The Murgha was creamy and savory and the Shaam was spicy and smokey. The whole evening was wonderful.

I moved to the area last year and decided to try this place last week. My husband and I were…read morepleasantly surprised by the food - it was really very good. It's not cheap for Indian (if you eat in, but takeout prices look really reasonable), but I think this is just us being used to cheap Indian food as we lived in London for many years. The prices don't seem out of line with the other Indian restaurants I've looked up or been to and the quality is excellent. If you happen to be in the area and you're looking for your Indian food fix, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. The waiters seemed really friendly, too.

I visited Rasam in Dublin for my birthday, and it also happened to be my first ever Michelin…read moreexperience, so the bar was high, and thankfully, it didn't disappoint. The service was great (as you'd expect at this level) and the food overall was beautifully done. I especially loved the garlic naan and malai kofta- fluffy, fragrant, and basically the kind of bread you wish every curry in your life could meet. The appetizer also hit the right notes. That said, for vegetarians, the options are quite limited. You'll find something, but don't expect a wide variety to pick from. Because of that, I'd call it more of a "special occasion" spot rather than somewhere I'd frequent often. Ratings: Food: 4/5 Service & Ambience: 4.5/5 Money's Worth: 3.5/5 Overall: 4/5 - A polished, memorable experience: perfect for a one-time treat if you're vegetarian.

An excellent Indian restaurant with good service and high quality ingredients. Two of my favorite…read moredishes were the starters. The duck rolls were excellent, a lot of duck, interesting and good sauce. The pork tasted more like a Chinese dish (I was fascinated to try pork in an (Indian restaurant) but it was done perfectly. Had a lamb in a cream curry as a main with the whole sea bass. The lamb had a nice, complex curry but the portion was a little on the small side. Sea bass was a very well prepared dish but be ready to deal with bones. The highlight for me was probably the best garlic naan I ever had, it was incredible. Definitely a very nice meal (though unlike other reviews, probably not what I would pick for my last meal).

A perfect ending to a very busy day!

The atmosphere at this place was a bit fancy, definitely nice, and suits dated as well…read more The service was great too, very friendly. Everything we tried was super tasty, the spices were balanced, the presentation was great, and not too spicy for our pallet. Chicken Biryani rice (€29.9), with a bready top that was taken off by the server, side of yogurt, side of masala sauce. Super tasty dish 10/10. Potato cake appetizer (€13.5), super tasty, it was topped with complementary sauces, well balanced between savory, sour, and tart. Excellent appetizer. Puri Chaat? (€15), They didn't list it on the menu, I asked for it and the chef was nice enough to create it for me. Super tasty and not too spicy We also go the slow cooked Wicklow lamb to go (€28.5), the meat was super tender, the flavors were excellent, some of the best Indian flavored lambs I've ever tried. The price for two people without drinks is (€104.65), which is on the pricy side, but the flavors and experience was worth it. All in all, I tried this place about 6 years ago and it was great and I tried it again and they still kept their high quality tasty food. Definitely recommend

Naturally, we started with dessert first :)...Pistachio cake and the rose kulfi (ice cream)...we had no words..we ate in silence to savor every blast of flavor and bite. We then ordered Lamb chops in the starter section, rice, Famous Afghani Chicken (THE BEST), Balochi chicken, coriander naan and garlic naan. This is a HIDDEN GEM! This is review worthy so more people get to experience this fusion experience. I wish they had this in the USA. To finish off the review we want to acknowledge this legendary family that started this business..The chef Mehwish was so humble and kind along with our server Sinyee. What a beautiful place to dine at. We felt so honored and thankful to be there. Hope to come back if I ever go back out that way!!!

Do Not Underestimate Their Vindaloo #HOTHOT…read more This place over the years have changed their name a few times but what hasn't changed is the awesome deliciousness of their food. I've sampled plenty of the starter dishes and for mains have tried quite a few options over from the beef or chicken jalrezi, tikka masala, korma oh and let's not forge their vindaloo (buyer's beware it is as hot as they come), all dishes have been amazing. My fave, go to main meal is now the chicken tikka masala has enough of everything, packed with flavour and doesn't make me cry like the vindaloo! Also, little tip for you... order the garlic Naan! It's worth the buck and then some. I've often ordered from them when having guests over so whether it be a small order for 2 or larger group they've got you covered. The delivery service is always prompt, never had any issues here and the once time they had a long delivery timeframe they made it know over the phone when I placed the order to make sure I was ok with the wait... More take away/delivery places should take note, if ye know ye are up against it, let us know when ordering... Saves an angry call 60 mins later :-) If you are in the area or live nearby and have not tried their food... Do! You won't regret it
