I have been wanting to check out Rasa for some time now. Today it finally happened. The decor and ambiance is very colorful, neat and very welcoming.. The food looked super fresh and delicious. All of us are either vegetarian or vegan and they had so many options. We definitely were not limited. The creations we could've come up with seemed endless. My mom, 10yr old and 7yr old all made their own bowls. My 7yr old is very particular and Emily was beyond accommodating letting my daughter try things before committing to put it in her bowl. Which led to her making the most perfect super delicious bowl that she loved. Thank you so much for that Emily. For vegan options, I was recommended Aloo you need is love bowl and it was AMAAZINGGG. i would definitely recommend and I would totally get it again. My 9yr old got the Paneer Wrap and he loved every bit said it was a 2-3 out of 10 spice level and he ate the entire thing. We added a couple of the garlic naan. We love garlic and it was super garlicky which we appreciated. On the house they gave us the vegan mini samosas which were good and with that sauce, incredible. The staff was so sweet they also gave us a few samples of the soft serve which is also vegan. We had the mango and the chai and everyone loved them. There was 5 of us. Three of us loved the mango more and two of us loved the chai soft serve more. All and all it was such a wonderful experience and the food leaves you wanting more and more. The staff was so sweet, very patient and so helpful especially Emily she went above and beyond and made us feel like family coming back to our favorite place and now it is. We all agreed Rasa is our new favorite and we will definitely be coming back again and again. Thank you Rasa not only for having such exceptional food, for being soooo vegan and vegetarian friendly but also for the super friendly knowledgeable staff who truly took care of us. Cant wait to go...

Read moreWe’ve been dining at Rasa in Merrifield for a while now, and every single experience has been fantastic! The food is always top-notch, with vibrant flavors that never disappoint. A particular favorite in our family is the shrimp — it’s always made fresh, tender, and bursting with flavor. We also can’t get enough of the rice noodles, which are always cooked perfectly and a great pairing to any dish.
But what really sets Rasa apart is the amazing service, especially from Melissa and Evelin. As parents of picky eaters, it can sometimes be tricky finding a place that can accommodate our children's preferences. Melissa and Evelin are always so kind and patient with our kids, going out of their way to ensure they have options that suit their needs. They’ve truly made our dining experience a joy every time we visit.
Rasa is the perfect blend of excellent food and exceptional service. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Indian cuisine in a welcoming,...
