Raja Rani Indian Restaurant — Restaurant in Quincy

I got a groupon to try them out, and they did NOT disappoint! the atmosphere was quiet and still, i went during lunch on a weekday, right before their 2:30pm closing for dinner, so the place was empty. they sat me at a booth near the window, then i let them know right away i was vegan. the hostess made sure a member of the staff understood that i was vegan, what that was and what i can and cannot eat. i can tell it was well communicated because she came back saying that i couldn't have one of the things i ordered, but there were still so many options for me to choose from!

the "pakora" app was light and crisp fried to flavor satisfaction. a tad too fried, but it was lighter than tempura, so the spices and veggies came through well, and the accompanying sauce was a nice touch to soften it up a bit. the "pepper fry" with gobi was EVERYTHING though! califlower fried to perfection, in a spicy veggie sauce full of body, heat and all types of original indian spices. they have meat and seafood options for this dish too, so i'm sure this dish will please anyone! i also ordered the "kathrikai vadhakkal", which is eggplant, tomatoes and onions in a sauce, with basmati rice, and ordered a side of roti, which was soft, but still the right amount of strength to hold even the oiliest spoonful of food. speaking of oily, the eggplant was cooked to perfection and the flavors and textures were SO much better than some of the eggplant dishes i've had at other indian places, but there was a lot more oil than spices. it didn't take away from the dish, but it would have been much better without at least half the pool of oil in there. the basmati rice was of course cooked to perfection and helped with some of the extra oil.

the staff were friendly and attentive. they didn't hover or rush me (since it was close to first closing) and took special care of my requests. i didn't much mind the lack of customers, since i needed some pace and quiet, but i'm sure that won't be the norm after a while. overall, this was one of the most pleasant and satisfying lunch experiences i've had in years, and i haven't had indian this good in a while. groupon or not, i'm definitely going to this place again.

unfortunately, i'm going to have to take back most of what i said. my friend and i met there because she said she wanted to try it and i had such a great experience. but that was the lunch service, this is the dinner service...

at 6pm, it was relatively empty so we sat anywhere. the greeter doubled as the waiter, apparently, and didn't seem to understand anything we were saying or asking for. i ordered the mushroom pepper fry, and POINTED to the mushroom on the menu as i ordered it, which was after my friend and i BOTH told him i was vegan (vegan, not vegetarian). after waiting at least a half hour for my entree, they brought me mutton.

my friend ordered onion chutney with her meal and they kept bringing everything else out but the chutney, after she asked for it three times and the waiter said ok. finally the server that brought our food made it clear they don't do onion chutney, which is what she asked the waiter before she ordered it, yet he said they would make it.

not only did we have to flag him down like a plane to get his attention, but he was more attentive to the phone and the walk ins for the buffet than us, who were already there and actually tip. now i see why he was pushing the buffet on us..

by the time we finally got our food, i was so discouraged that i couldn't even enjoy it. yhe spring rolls and fried corn were to be expected, but the pepper fry was not the same today as it was then, seemed a little lackluster, outside of my discouraged experience. very...

I truly cannot recommend this resteraunt or the amazing people working there any more highly! My family and I wanted to throw a surprise party for my mom, so we reached out to Raja Rani Indian Restaurant. Kumar (the manager) and his team went above and beyond to make this experience so incredibly special, as well as an absolute blast for us! Kumar and I communicated for the two months leading up to the party-- he was very kind, accommodating, and thoughtful, and he was very enthusiastic about hosting our party. We were offered a very fair rate, as well as a very delicious buffet selection. Kumar and his team even accommodated the menu to have vegetarian options, and, I'm so appreciative of the fact that they labeled all potential allergens above each item. The day of the party, we were told we could arrive early to set up. Kumar and his team were so kind as to give our party own section of the restaurant. The people working there— Adi, Aki and Angel were so kind and accommodating. They all introduced themselves, and offered to take video footage/photos for us-- it was so much fun to look through the photos/videos afterwards! They brought out food and drinks, were so kind as to let us take the extra food home, and they stored the cake that we brought in for us. They all did such an incredible job hosting our party, and my mom couldn’t have been happier! Every single one of us had an absolute blast! This resteraunt has the kindest and most thoughtful staff, as well as absolutely delicious food! One of the people working there told me that it was his birthday on the day we were in-- he was so incredibly thoughtful to assist with, and make our party special on what was also his birthday! I truly couldn’t recommended this restaurant any more highly for private parties, events, or, for sit down/take out lunch or dinner! This incredible team goes above and beyond to provide an A+ experience. They value both kindness and communication, and they place emphasis on providing great service as well as a positive experience! I can’t thank you all enough— Kumar, Aki, Adi and Angel for making this such a fun and special day for my mom as well as for all of us! My mom had such an wonderful and special birthday, and we all had so much fun chatting and seeing friends! Thank you all...

Ordered 3dosas and one fish appetizer yesterday thru doordash (pickup). I was very excited to try at this new restaurant but it totally disappointed me. The dosas we’re not done properly and the peanut chutney is a total disaster (can feel the peanuts are toasted till they r burnt and can feel the burnt smell) for 3 dosas they did nt give separate chutney instead they gave one small container which is not enough for all the 3 dosas. I would not mind paying a good price if the food is tasty but this one paying 14.99 for a Mysore masala dosa where the red masala paste I could hardly see it. I m totally disappointed with the Sukka mutton dosa where all bones are added instead of meat. I m not gonna order again.

Ordered thru Uber eats again for my roommate on 19/12/2021- chicken fried rice and it was Salty: Now please don’t tell me to come and eat in the restaurant for a better taste. Anyways Coming to dosas I always order take out from one of your competitor in Quincy and they always gave me proper done Mysore masala dosa with proper red chutney spreaded well. And the chutney quantity you guys give is so less and tastes so horrible where I will never spend extra money on that. I m not here to complain or argue, One more thing I would like to tell you is that I m a South Indian and I know how a Dosa should be eaten. Dosas can be eaten hot or cold it does not matter but the dosa has to be cooked well and done in the manner it has to be done. Mistakes happen with everyone but one should be ready to accept and correct those mistakes. But here it looks like you guys are not ready to accept the truth and take feedback to improve your food quality. Anyways I would never order...
