"Fast-casual Rasa adds stuffed wraps to the mix this spring, marking the local hitmaker’s first big menu makeover since its start in late 2017. Three options (chicken tikka, spicy chicken, or tandoori paneer) are joined by lemon-turmeric rice, romaine, spiced chickpeas, chutneys, and sauces, all wrapped up in warm roti bread. The debut item drops today, Tuesday, April 23, across its five DMV-wide locations. Owners and Eater Young Guns (’18) Rahul Vinod and Sahil Rahman previously only specialized in a fork-required menu offering — build-your-own or premade Indian bowls — along with vegan soft serve, cardamom mint juleps, and spiked lassis sent out in a coconut." - Tierney Plumb
"Co-owners and Eater Young Guns (‘18) Sahil Rahman and Rahul Vinod started this local fast-casual brand to introduce Indian food to a broad audience. Choose from premade bowls highlighting chicken tikka, lamb kebab, shrimp, spiced beef, sweet potato tikkis (a vegetarian-style cutlet), and more. Customers can also build their own, choosing from a base of vegetables or rice and adding mains, veggies, and toppings. The fast-growing brand maintains locations in Navy Yard, Arlington, Mt. Vernon Triangle, and Fairfax. Order online for takeout or delivery." - Tierney Plumb

"The D.C. area’s quick-serve chain for hit Indian bowls is also known for its vegan soft serve, and the flavor of the moment is mango lassi. Order on-site or online for pickup or delivery." - Tierney Plumb
"“RASA is a vibrant, casual Indian eatery that features build-your-own bowls with a variety of meats, vegetables, toppings, and sauces. The chicken tikka and lamb kebabs are must-try mains but their extensive vegetarian options are delicious as well! With bright airy interiors and swinging egg chairs, this is a fun place to meet up with friends of all ages.”" - Vox Creative
