Raga, Croton-On-Hudson NY

Food had no spices, It was horribly bland. It used to be much better. We gave it 2 tries spaced apart but second time was even worse.

Disappointing. Ordered right after opening and maybe that was a mistake. The Lasooni Gobi was awful. Not sure how, but the sauce was dry and inside was soggy. Maybe a reheat from the day before?
Anyway, the appetizer’s first impression lasted for the whole meal.
Just shy of $100 for 2, which is not a problem for good food, but in this case, it just wasn’t worth it.

The food was really bland. Like…we had to add our own spices at home bland. The naan was probably the saving grace of the meal but otherwise…it’s a no from me unfortunately. Had high hopes for a really good local Indian restaurant based on previous reviews but maybe head elsewhere if that’s what you’re craving.

Really good food! Great, friendly service. And a full bar! Can get a little loud, but if you’re the table having that much fun, enjoy!

Food is absolutely delicious! Highly recommend the vegetable samosas, tandoori chicken, chicken tikka masala and chana saag. Relaxing atmosphere and great service.

New to the area and was looking to satisfy my “desi” tooth. Service was friendly, quick and efficient and the food was very good; it did hit the spot but I can’t give it 5 stars as it was supposed to be spicy but was anything but.
Regardless, taste and flavors were more than satisfying and I’ll be sure to return again.

I visited this place 2 times. Meals are ok. Custumer service is terrible. Not very family friendly. They seen to pay more attention to their takeout orders.

A really great Indian cuisine restaurant.
The owner, chef, and entire staff make this a wonderful place for, again, great food.

There are always outliers, and everyone deserves a pass from time to time. Tonight is not that exception. I showed up at 6: 00pm and ordered food for take out (Mango Chicken, Sag Paneer, Raga Sampler, Lasani Gobi, and Onion Nan). The owner took my order and said that it would take about 45 minutes to prepare, as they were busy. And indeed, there was a constant flow of customers picking up food to go, as well as a dozen or so patrons in the dining room. I was in no hurry, and so took a seat at the counter and occupied the time with my cellphone.

At 6: 45, I flagged the waiter down (they really were busy) and paid the bill, so that I could depart as soon as the food was ready. Some unfortunate patron who called his order in, showed up only to be told that his order had only just been put in, and that he was going to have to wait some time before it would be ready. (Ouch! - But they *really* were busy.). At 7: 00, I flagged someone down again, to ask the status of my order. They did not know. My question was repeated at 7: 15- and again, they had no idea.

Finally, at 7: 30 - 90 minutes after placing my order - they brought it out. I asked the waiter what the reason for delay was, and he said that the person who usually packs the orders was in India, and the replacement was not as fast. "That doesn't account for a 45-minute delay, " I said, and continued, "The couple that came in with me (motioning to the table where they sat) ordered, ate, left, and the table is even cleared off. " I asked again what the reason was for the delay. The waiter got the owner, who said that the reason was that some things take longer to prepare. Since I didn't order anything that should fit that reason, I said that it had taken twice as long as expected to have the order ready.

Now, I can be patient with a lost order. - I can be patient with a busy night of orders. - I can be patient with an understaffed crew in the kitchen. I can patiently abide all of that, and more. However, the owner replied to me that I was lying, and that I had not been told anything about how long the order would take. *That* does not get a pass. I have been a long-time customer of Raga- even from when it used to be India House in Montrose. The food is always delicious, but I no longer trust the owner. - He lies.

Indian food that is so delicious with all the unique flavors and selections that they offer. Friendly and inviting always. Highly recommended.
