Die besten indische Restaurants in Newington

Rania was my first Michelin-starred dining experience, and it was a fantastic introduction. I chose the seven-course chef’s tasting menu, and what I appreciated most was how inventive the food was without feeling overly complicated. There was clearly a lot of technique behind each course, but the food still felt approachable. Everything tasted like it belonged together. The scallop with spicy hollandaise was probably my favorite course. The scallop was beautifully prepared, and the hollandaise brought just enough heat and richness without taking over. The tuna tartare was another highlight. It came with this bright, herb-heavy cilantro sauce that was fresh, unexpected, and honestly one of the flavors I kept thinking about after the meal. I also had a cocktail that arrived in a cloud of smoke with gold flake floating in it. So yes, there was some theater involved. But it was also a really good cocktail, which made the presentation feel fun rather than gimmicky. The service matched the food. From the moment I walked through the door until dessert and my eventual departure, everyone made the experience feel polished and welcoming. Jonas, my server, was excellent. He was attentive and knowledgeable without hovering, and he helped make a long tasting menu feel relaxed and well paced. Anyway, the whole experience struck a nice balance. It was creative and beautifully presented, but nothing felt like it was trying too hard to impress you. The food was still the point, and the service made it that much easier to enjoy. For my first Michelin-starred meal, Rania was pretty much exactly what I hoped the experience would be. Great food, some genuinely surprising flavors, excellent service, and a meal I’ll remember for a long time. I’d absolutely go back.

I've been to several Indian restaurants in Old Town and this is definitely the best! Great food and service! Can't wait to go back.

Two of the diners in our party had allergies and the chef and waiter coordinated to make sure they were safe from any of things that could make them sick.
