“Food was great. Overall satisfied with the meal. Wait staff was quick and friendly. Worth a visit. Only way it could be improved is to have citronella candles on the table. There are no candles on the tables outside. Be sure to tip generously!“

“My sisters and I tried Rasa for the first time and the food was very tasty, fresh, fast and nicely seasoned. Sadly, the service was very much lacking. We came in and there were 6 people behind the counter, not one person greeted us or acknowledged our presence. They were working on a big to go order at the time, but it seemed like no one was really delegating and attending to people that were actually standing in line. Finally, a guy came over to take our order and as I was asking for what I wanted, he was exasperated from the very beginning. He quickly slopped the food in the bowl, no care at all. When I asked for my sauces on the side, he rolled his eyes and then I asked for pickled onions and he grabbed my bowl and begrudgingly put them on. He did the same with my sisters orders. He was incredibly rude and if you don't want to serve people, don't work in a service job. I did like the food though! Very tasty.“

“I work right across the street and my coworkers and I order food from here constantly! The chicken tikka masala is better than I’ve ever had, butter chicken is also amazing. The food is always fresh and amazing! Great grocery selection too.“

“Me & my family had a fantastic experience at Bollywood Bistro in the Ballston Quarter food court. It is easily one of the best spots in the area for a quick yet high-quality meal.
​We tried a variety of dishes, and everything was spot on:
​Bombay Shrimp: Perfectly seasoned and a great start to the meal.
​Chicken Seekh Kebab: Juicy, flavorful, and charred just right.
​Lamb Bowl: Tender meat with a great balance of spices—very filling!
​Chicken Biryani: Fragrant and authentic, exactly what you want in a good biryani.
​Beyond the food, the staff were very courteous and nice, making the whole experience even better. If you’re at Ballston Quarter and craving Indian food that actually packs a punch, this is the place to go!“

“Had a very delicious meal yesterday with some friends. The food, service and ambience were top notch. Interesting cocktails too. They have done some renovations which give the place a very youthful and vibrant look. I will definitely be back.“

“Good, friendly service.. food was delicious“

“Central & southern Asian food makes me happy. This is some of the best in Virginia. You must come to the buffet to try a few things, and come back with a date for supper. I typically enjoy lamb karahi but also many of the vegetarian options. The owners are very nice.“

“We had dinner here last night and it was amazing! We had goat biriyani, beef teheri, lamb rogan josh and mango lassi. Each dish had its own sauce, and spices, which are different from others, unlike some other restaurants which made some dishes taste the same. It was during Ramadan, so the restaurant was packed after sundown. The prices were reasonable. The owner was friendly. Would return to try out other dishes!“

“This is the best Indian food I’ve had in a very long time. It is actually as good as the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The Aloo Gobi knocked my socks off! Really delicious chicken tikka masala and samosas as well. The first delivery driver didn’t show up and they called to let us know another was coming and would be a little later than expected. I definitely recommend you try it!“

“I took my family to this restaurant they have a buffet during Ramadan and there’s plenty of varieties. The food is delicious and the employees are very sweet and helpful.“

“The food is delicious and healthy. Customer service is wonderful. Meals are well presented and served with a variety of vegetables. Make you feel like you receive a flavor from the whole world. Note that Abraham knows how to cook and makes you feel welcome in a clean environment while enjoying your exceptional food.“
