Somethings are good and somethings are mediocre. I found the Palak chaat good. It is basically palak dipped in besan and fried and layered over a normal chaat. The difference is the crispness of the fried palak on top.

Their appetizers are great (non-veg ones specifically). The entrees are ok. Some are as good as the other Indian restaurants (butter chicken is good like many other restaurants), but some should be avoided (like railway chicken)

I did not find the desserts appetizing at all. The fusion did not work well  and one has eaten better stuff from the freezer section of the Indian grocer (Nanak's rasmalai is yet to be beaten by any restaurant).

Staff, servers, ambiance is very nice.

I have yet to find an Indian restaurant that can cook vegetable curries and dals better than I do (so thank God I am a non-veg eater), and I have yet to eat goat curry in a restaurant where the goat is properly butchered with the perfectly sized pieces that are meaty and where the bone has no rough edges and are filled with marrow. (suggestion to the owner - how about getting someone from "back home" who knows how to carve the "raan" pieces perfectly.)

All said and done, for special occasions, I would still go to Rasika. It has a very good vibe and food is good too.  It is just that I am a Delhiite and in my mind nothing I have eaten in this country ever topped food that I ate at Kareem's in Nizamuddin in the 80's -90's. [/quote]
