Raahi Indian Bistro

Raahi Indian Bistro is the South End restaurant on West Worthington Avenue, in the Design Center. The room is beautifully decorated with music and video screens, and the cooking leans toward a modern, lightly fusion take on Indian food. A honey cauliflower starter arrives hot and crisp. Staff are professional and warm, and an early dinner finds the room quiet. Weekend lunches are relaxed and the room rarely feels rushed. Butter chicken, a chef’s lamb, dal makhani, saag and dosas fill out the menu.
