The food and ambiance were spot on and matched our expectations. However, giving an explanation that the chef would decide to swap out Dal in a Thali just doesn't make any sense given that Lentil is explicitly mentioned as one of the components of the Thali. Add to it, this explanation was offered only when we asked on the Dal. For a top rated restaurant, I definitely expected better service. Food - portion sizes were just right for a weekday meal. The Chicken Tikka was very good - reminded one of authentic Tikka you get in Delhi!! Naan was fresh and soft as well. read more

Was on a trip to NYC from upstate,, now I need to find a spot eith parking, roses on the way with not a lot of deviation, RaaSa was the one (i took taconic and i87). May be I got there early, as there was no one at the restaurant (however a few other came in later). I was greeted at the door and the person waiting was friendly. I had a lot to choose from and I decided to go with the non veg thali, had lentils, rice, chicken tikka masala, naan, rice pudding, raitha, papa, chicken tikka (tandoor) and pakoras. Overall, good food, personally I would have preferred more chicken tokka masala, gravy, as she chunks of meat took up most of the small bowl and did give me enough gravy. Its a good value for money unless you are there for a weekend buffet. Give it shot at this Michelin recommended restaurant. There's ample parking and seating. read more

I'm so happy! I stumbled upon an Indian food buffet, which I haven't seen since before Covid! Raasa had an amazing assortment of delicious foods. I thoroughly enjoyed almost all of it. I had two plates full! There were many entrées ranging from fish, lamb, chicken, and lots of vegetable options. The food here is delicious. I will definitely be back! read more

Absolutely the best Indian food in Westchester county as far as I'm concerned!! it is a must try!! The owners are fabulous

Super impressed with Raasa! The place was really clean and had a calm, welcoming vibe. The food was incredibly fresh--you can tell everything was made with care. Flavors were on point, nothing felt heavy. Definitely one of the best Indian spots in Westchester. Will be back for sure! read more

Good place for solid Indian food with excellent service. We started with the samosa appetizer which was great with a nice crunch and flavorful potato filling. The chicken tikka masala was a little spicy and well balanced and the sag paneer was wonderfully done with the freshest tasting cheese I've had at an Indian restaurant. Don't skip the garlic Nan bread...soooo good. Will definitely come back to try the lunch buffet. read more

Maybe it was an off Saturday evening. Arrived at 5:30ish. Although cocktail was ordered, it must have sat as it was not chilled properly. I asked for a glass of ice with the cocktail which arrived 30 minutes later. The appetizer was excellent and best part of meal. The (no cream) Palak (sp) Paneer was VERY thick and lukewarm when received. The Tandoori chicken did not arrive on a sizzling plate (as we noticed another did later). The white meat in this dish was too dry to eat. The restaurant was half full and although service is friendly and kind, it was sparse at times. I may consider another shot, but I wouldn't order either of these dishes again. read more

Great ambience. Good parking area. Best of all good food, service and price point. Michelin bib awardee. They have a great buffet on Fridays and weekend for $25 and a higher end buffet on special occasions (Father's day). Highly recommended you will love it. read more

Ordering online was seamless. There was a coupon code on RaaSa's website that I used at checkout. However, the discount was not applied. When I went to pick up my order two different employees could not apply the discount. A third person came, and I walked her through my process. She indicated that the discount could not be adjusted through their system. Long story short, it was a new discount, and it was not processing correctly. At that point she offered to give me the discount difference from her pocket. I said that it was not necessary. I just wanted the food. Food that I was ordering as a surprise for my son, who had tried to order a week earlier but they were having an event. She then proceeded to offer me a drink, an appetizer, or naan. After saying again, no thank you, I just want the food so I could get home. Finally, I took her up on her offer of a mango lassi. While I waited at the bar for my order to be completed. We chatted and at some point, during our conversation, I learned that she and her husband were the owners. Priya, the owners name, just wanted to make this right. She could have easily told me; sorry, there is nothing that could be done. Instead, she went above and beyond. She took ownership of the error. I so appreciate her and while my meal was takeout, rest assured I will return for a full dining experience. Priya, thank you for everything. BTW, the food (butter chicken, regular samosa, lamb samosa, garlic naan) was delicious. Great experience that could have easily left me disappointed, but Priya made all the difference. Many thanks, YSL- read more

Amazing food, service was great and people were very serviceable. I went with a group and we had a great time. Everyone enjoyed the food and the ambiance. read more

Visited here the other night, and certainly enjoyed the food. I've been wanting to come here for a while, and I'm glad that I finally made it. Here are the deets: Pros: --plenty of parking --good service from the waitstaff --full bar --they have a buffet fri-Sunday around lunch time. I plan to check it out, so I can see what their best dishes are. --the deconstructed samosa was pretty awesome. Cons: --the tikka masala was good, but had a slight sweetness to it. Had a nice spice though. read more

Great food and great service. I recommend all the time to family and friends. Always satisfied. You won't be disappointed.

food was fresh and delicious. workers were super nice and attentive as well! love the cleanliness of the place and the windows

Come here on Sat for 2 consecutive weeks and both days closed for party. Definitely never coming back. Don't like them that much to be rejected twice. And people are rude. read more

Consistently disappointing paneer makhanwala. Goat curry was ok. Saag paneer is hit or miss. Not the best, not exactly the worst.

The food ar Raa sSa is so delicious! The service was excellent! The atmosphere lovely 5 stars... read more

Excellent Tika Maasala and nans! However they always forget to put utensils and napkins in the orders!

Raasa is the best Indian restaurant in Westchester. We even hosted my son and partner's wedding luncheon here, as Indian cuisine is our favorite. They were super accommodating and the food was amazing! They closed the restaurant down for us on a Sunday afternoon. Not many Indian restaurants can accommodate a group of 65 people like they can. We had a lovely tasting meal prior to the event. Since then, we have been back many times and the food is always fantastic! read more

We had a great reservation lunch for our Team. Service and food selections were excellent. If you are in the Tarrytown/Elmsford area, you must try RaaSa The recently renovated ambiance was perfect, early lunch, hot-ready appetizers are a must! Don't forget dessert... read more

Forget everything you know about Indian restaurants- because the owner and her husband have put down roots and changed the face of this spot on Rt 119 in Elmsford with something more modern. You won't miss RaaSa- just look for the stand-alone grayish 'house' style restaurant as your guide. I usually play it safe when it comes to Indian food: fritters such as Lasooni Gobi, Pakoras, Samosas and other foods that aren't heavy on the sauce. RaaSa's Lasooni Gobi took centerstage when it comes to those crispy edges and that tomatoey/Spicy/Sweet/thick- almost relish-type sauce. The ingredients in my Imli Eggplant were lush- just wished the eggplant was sliced thin and was 'crispy' as stated on the menu. Also in my order was the delicious Mango Lassi and moist Gulab Jamun to finish. And don't even forget the Indian music that was fire as I was about to do The Dougie on the spot while waiting for my pickup order. The space is elegant and modern with outrageous rose gold/copper hanging lamp balls. What's more, RaaSa has an excellent ventilation system in place because I didn't smell like food afterwards- and that's a fact. The owner was straightforward yet friendly and shows this is their true labor of love full of awesome and intense flavors. read more

Very good place to try Indian traditional plates. I am Dominican and I love Indian food, this restaurant is better than any other Indian restaurants I have tried. The service from staff is very professional and attentive. If you would like your food more spicy, ask them to make it extra spicy. Very clean place! We had Samosa, Garlic Naan bread, Chicken curry and shrimp curry. read more

Raasa is right on the main road on a stretch that's easily bypassed or overlooked if you weren't explicitly looking for it. When we went there were a few servers who sat us and brought out the food and drinks but the orders were all taken by a single person. This was one of the few gripes as it was the bottleneck for any requests. With a full restaurant our food took quite some time to come, but in the end the flavor and quality of it all had us convinced this is one of the best in the area. They seemed to get a non-stop stream of customers waiting to dine in as well as those picking up orders to go, which are all a testament to the delicious food they serve. read more

Food was very bland at the buffet lunch. Royal Palace... just down the street is a better meal.

very good food as well as prices except for wine, which was only served 1/3. glass full. The staff is very cordial and accommodating.

Wow the food at RaaSa is sooo good. It was on a list I got from someone who grew up in India of their favorite authentic Indian restaurants in Westchester I was not disappointed. Everything was very fresh and very delicious and I highly recommend RaaSa to Indian food lovers! read more

We ran in for a quick lunch while at Jury duty in a nearby town so we didn't have much time but wanted Indian food so we gave it a try. We let the waiter know we didn't have much time and he was happy to accommodate. We thought they had a lunch special because the person who dined with me had taken out their lunch specials before. Apparently they only have lunch specials for takeout. Anyway we ordered Chicken Korma and shrimp. We ordered the garlic Naan which was lite and fresh and we sopped up all the delicious sauce from the dishes we ordered. Everything was fresh and delicious. The waiter promptly brought our check as he knew we were rushing and got us out quickly. read more

this is the closest Indian takeout spot for me and I love their food! ugh that naan, yum. chicken tikka misala is my fav, it's close to home so i absolutely will be ordering again & again lol read more

We ordered delivery - the lamb burra chops isn't a huge portion but wonderfully marinated & roasted. Grilled onions & peppers on the side. The samosa chat was great - nicely made & spicy. The problem came with the malai kofta - there were only 4 small kofta floating in a sea of sweet too heavily spiced w cardamon and no other flavors so the cream & nuts took over. We didn't eat all the kofta read more

Ordered delivery- food came cold, tasted old, had no spice. Bland and bad. Even requested medium spice on chicken tikka. Rice was definitely the opposite of fresh.the naan was also hard. read more

Solid Indian cuisine. Chicken curry - good flavor and spice. Just the right amount of spice without setting your mouth on fire. Garlic naan- light fluffy and some crispy edges which I like. Lassi- very refreshing and helps you digest the food. Great friendly service. Will def be back! read more

We just finished a disappointing take out dinner. When we arrived at 7:30pm on a Friday night, the restaurant was empty except for 2 tables of guests. I first noticed that there was very little chicken in my tikka masala and saag orders. And the spices seemed about 1/2 as much as well. The samosa tasted old as though it were been reheated from yesterday which was the same as our garlic and onion naan. It even tasted microwaved as the bread was very chewy in some parts and dried out in the middle. All the more disappointing as the food was wonderful when we asked them to cater our son's graduation dinner back in January. I guess we will be traveling to Hartsdale to "tried and true" Jewel of Himalaya... read more

Fine restaurant in Elmsford. Our appetizer was excellent (delicately spiced, sweet & savory), our entrees were delicious. Service was on point. Areas for improvement: the ice cream was mediocre and the men's room was not clean. Otherwise: ! read more
